Japanese Tea Ceremonies & Home Decor

In college, I studied the art of Japanese Tea Ceremony. “Studied” being a glorified word for “clumsily attempted”, but it was still a wonderful experience. In tea ceremony, the meaning behind every movement is as important as the purpose of the movement itself, therefore the symbolic act of “purifying” the tea scoop involves wiping the bamboo implement with a silk napkin in slow, choreographed movement, which probably doesn’t purify it much but looks really pretty. While serving tea, guests sit in a tatami mat room, decorated with an ornamental scroll and perhaps a simple flower arrangement reflecting the season. It creates a wonderful haven of serenity…that is, until guests try my tea, otherwise known as “green mud”.

Like the subtle artwork in tea rooms, the artwork from Sincol Co., Ltd. gives a sense of peace and serenity with its subtle colors and patterns. A textiles manufacturer, they mount top-quality upholstery fabric to create artwork. The texture of the fabric panel gives a sense of warmth and comfort. The company also creates a wall panel which features an inkjet print photograph, but captured on a textile canvas that lends a diffused, calming effect. These unique artworks can give any room a sense of serenity…minus the gluey beverages.
