Why They Chose Tatami

Robert visited our showroom with a clear goal: to transform a tight corner of his apartment into a space for relaxation, reading, and quiet retreat. With limited room to work with, every decision had to be purposeful.


He didn’t want more things. He wanted more from less—a principle we deeply align with.


Key Challenges & Needs


  • Elevated platform with hidden underfloor storage
  • Front-integrated drawers for shoes and daily essentials
  • Traditional 4.5 tatami layout using natural igusa
  • Hidden lift-up table for work, dining, or reading
  • Soft integrated lighting with dropped ceiling and paper lamp


Our Approach


This approach treats small living not as a limitation, but as an opportunity to design with intention. By combining Japanese spatial logic with modern needs, the space expands in usefulness without growing in size.
