This Japanese Zen bedroom pairs tatami flooring and a low futon with white bedding, facing shoji doors that open to a pocket rock garden of white pebbles and a single stone. Earthen plaster walls with straw flecks and a woven reed ceiling add tactile warmth, lifted by daylight from a skylight and a glowing washi lamp on a dark wood tansu. Natural wood frames and muted neutrals quiet the room, expressing wabi-sabi restraint.
