KURA 01

KURA 01 room view

Relocated and thoughtfully restored from a guest residence originally built in the late Taisho era, this remarkable space has been transformed into a refined modern retreat. Beyond the stately black entrance doors lies a grand three-room suite embodying the spirit of modern Japanese design, accompanied by the quiet beauty of an elegant karesansui dry landscape garden. The space is richly detailed with straight-grain cedar ceilings, exquisitely crafted ranma transoms, and traditional shoin-style architecture that preserves the essence of classic Japanese living. Complemented by sophisticated Scandinavian furnishings, the room achieves a graceful balance between timeless tradition and contemporary sensibility. Moments spent in the open-air bath, carefully positioned to blend seamlessly into the surrounding garden, are especially unforgettable. A signature grand suite by Takinami - an experience shaped by the enduring beauty of “good old Japan.”
