Japanese Hobby Room and Closet
This video shows a western style room, used as a hobby room, and a walk in closet for kimono. Most Japanese houses feature "western style" rooms. What about the rooms makes them "western style?'
The owner of this house uses this particular room as a hobby room, including for Japanese calligraphy. The calligraphy in black ink is the homeowners, while the red version is her teachers model calligraphy. The closet includes a special set of "drawers" to store kimono. These types of kimono are quite expensive, so it is rare that a family would own so many kimono. Most Japanese homes would not have this peace of furniture or such a large closet. However, it does illustrate how kimono are properly stored.
