One day story / Small talks from SOU · SOU Producer Takeshi Wakabayashi
“Tea room he ’s this and that” [29] ”
Today Sunday, Sukiya carpenter family of Hakoiri Musume Ando SOU・SOU Kei-i of poster girl, is the corner of Yukari Terada!
======================================
SOU・SOU tea room construction is steadily progressing after entering the site.
When the basic materials are completely settled, plastering work can be carried out at the same time.
In other words, it is wall construction. It's a wall, but a wall.
The wall of the tea room is a clay wall coated with clay.
At first glance, it seems that all the clay walls are the same, but it is no exaggeration to say that these clay walls determine the impression of the tea room.
Will the wallpaper in the room be white, or Off-white...or a different white?
In the same way as this feeling, the atmosphere of the tea room changes completely depending on the color depth of the clay wall.
This time, the color samples proposed for the SOU・SOU
The difference is obvious when lined up like this, but it seems to be a difficult technique to finish the ideal tea room with only this color sample at the construction stage.
My father SOU・SOU 's tea room, but this is where I have to confirm the taste of the owner, Wakabayashi.
Fortunately? By chance? Miraculously? The colors of the two matched and settled down.
All you have to do is leave it to the plasterer.
As an aside, the color of the walls of the tea room changes over time.
It is an added value as an "apology" rather than "just old".
And the atmosphere created by the old tea room becomes "beauty" that cannot be expressed in the new tea room.
Sukiya carpenters have to build a tea room in anticipation of the changes decades ahead.
The color of the walls of our tea room gradually changes, and the atmosphere is dim and indescribable even in the daytime.
It is said that some tea people do not invite people immediately after building a tea room, and the more people wait for decades of aging of the wall, the more important the change in the color of the wall is.
There are many new and good things in the world and it is easy to understand, but I feel that it takes "eyes" to identify old and good things.
"to be continued"

See you tomorrow!

It's difficult to identify the "eyes".
It's a skill that you can't learn with a little softness.
Craftsmanship to master one (craftsman), head goes down m (_ _) m
Aging, I'm looking forward to it again (^-^)
Yeah! Mr
Thank you for your warm comments.
I've lived in an Era when there are disposable items since I was born, so it's a value that school doesn't teach me!
I feel that the beauty of Japan, which loves old things as well as new ones, is amazing!
