It is a Japanese-style residence that incorporates tea rooms, emphasizes nature, and garden landscaping. The mansion has six rooms. The building tries its best to avoid brilliant and luxurious decorations. At first glance, it looks simple and unpretentious. If you look closely, you will find that many upper-class literati have used classics to design their ingenuity.
