third space

For hotels, restaurants, galleries, spas, and cultural venues — a chashitsu as a destination in its own right. A space that slows guests down, sets you apart, and offers something no other interior can: a room that has been finetuned over centuries specifically to produce a particular quality of presence.

We work with architects, interior designers, and clients directly.

Home
residential conversions or extensions

An existing room, or a new extension, transformed into a chashitsu. The proportions, materials, and joinery are designed from scratch — the result is not a renovation but a new room with its own internal logic, sitting quietly within the fabric of a home.

Suitable for both period and contemporary properties.

garden
standalone teahouse

A standalone structure, set apart from the main building — reached by a roji path through a considered landscape. The most complete expression of the form: its own threshold, its own silence, its own world. Built for private residences and estates where the garden can become part of the architecture itself.

Every project is designed in Japan and constructed to order.

Matsubaya Saryo (松葉屋茶寮・方舟GALLERY)

cafe/tea house

A single-tatami chashitsu built within a bonsai tea house and gallery, designed for one purpose: to sit with a bowl of matcha and the company of an ancient, magnificent bonsai.

The room contains everything a chashitsu requires, and nothing more. A tokonoma alcove, a tea shelf, a tatami seat and bench seating are arranged within a compact but complete space. The entrance is a sliding door designed in the manner of a nijiriguchi. The room is soundproofed to invite stillness.
