Kyoto, Japan
Nestled in a secluded forest at the foot of Mount Hidari Daimonji, to the north of Kyoto, six residences exist in harmony with the nearby hot springs. With tatami flooring, plenty of wooden latticework, floor-to-ceiling windows, and bathtubs carved from Japanese cypress, design is more anchored in shaping a philosophy of life than in decoration. Here, honouring the art of day-to-day living is about a multifaceted sense of well-being: a deep immersion in Zen Buddhism that starts with a traditional breakfast and guided meditation led by a monk, and moves through treatments using natural ingredients like green tea and camellia oil, paired with Japanese techniques like shiatsu, or yoga sessions in the garden, which combine to form a soothing symphony of calm. The day culminates in a uniquely flavoursome omakase, where the chef lets his inspiration be guided by your tastebuds – the perfect distillation of the residence's approach.
