some more research on theme

- Details in Japanese design are thoughtful, simple, minimal.
- Ornamentation is missing from furniture and architectural details.
- Furniture is kept low to the ground, imparting a sense of comfort and stability .
- Horizontal, rather than vertical, lines are emphasized.
- Natural light is the main source of illumination. Light fixtures are recessed , concealed, or minimal.
- Natural materials such as stone and wood are used for a pleasing, low-key look .
- The color scheme is muted, such as grays and greens found in nature, mixed with warm woods.
