Set in the mountains of Kyoto, the Stillness Pavilion is a modern homage to traditional tea houses. The structure utilizes traditional timber-framing techniques without metal joinery, relying entirely on Japanese craftsmanship. It serves as a rental retreat for meditation and tea ceremonies.
Building a structure that withstands harsh mountain humidity while maintaining an open, wall-less aesthetic.
Used locally-sourced treated Cypress wood and custom sliding shoji screens with high-performance glass to protect against rain while offering 360-degree nature views.
Delivering integrated solutions with presence, intention, and reliability.
