Comment
This accommodation facility was relocated and reconstructed from an old Meiji-era house. The old house in Mitoya-cho, Unnan City, Shimane Prefecture was demolished, the structural frame was rearranged, and it was renovated into a lounge and seven guest rooms. The guest rooms on the first floor have a semi-open-air bath that opens onto the garden, and the guest rooms on the second floor have an open-air atrium that shows off the beams.
The imperfections that come with the renovation, such as the low lattice ceiling and exposed pillars in the rooms, are also seen as interesting, creating a free space where you can escape from your daily life.
Carving of the staircase pillars: Kobo Takahashi (Takahashi Koji) Washi paper lantern production: Craft Career (Ishikawa Satoshi)
