shoji and washitsu:

 

The washitsu is a traditional Japanese room specifically designed for everyday activities. The term "washitsu" translates literally to "Japanese room." It is a space dedicated to activities such as relaxation, meditation, tea ceremonies, calligraphy or painting practice, and informal gatherings.

The washitsu distinguishes itself from other rooms in a Japanese house through certain characteristic elements. Here are some common features of the washitsu:

Tatami: The floor of the washitsu is typically covered with tatami mats, which are woven straw mats covered with rice straw or rush. Tatami mats are soft and comfortable to sit, lie down, or engage in floor activities.

Shoji: Shoji are sliding partitions made of kozo paper mounted on a wooden frame. They allow for dividing the space and letting natural light pass through. Shoji are often adorned with traditional patterns.

Fusuma: Fusuma are sliding wooden partitions covered with paper or fabric. Unlike shoji, fusuma are opaque and serve to separate different rooms within the washitsu.

Tokonoma: The tokonoma is a decorative alcove located in the washitsu. It is often used to display art objects such as calligraphy, prints, or flower arrangements.

Zabuton and Zaisu: Zabuton are thick and plush cushions used for sitting on tatami mats. Zaisu are legless chairs that enable sitting in the Japanese style, with legs crossed under oneself.

The washitsu embodies the Japanese aesthetic and philosophy of simplicity, harmony with nature, and respect for traditions. It is a space that promotes tranquility of mind and a connection with Japanese culture and traditional practices. Today, while many modern households prefer Western lifestyles, some still maintain a washitsu in their homes to preserve cultural heritage and enjoy the unique atmosphere it offers.
