A Full-Fledged Tea Room Appears Inside a Rental Apartment: 'Tea Room for Mindful Living' Concept Rental Debuts as a Space to Reset Your Mind Amid a Busy Daily Life

Nissho Co., Ltd. (President: Hiroshi Kajisa, Head Office: Kita-ku, Nagoya), a comprehensive real estate company operating 104 locations across the three prefectures of the Tokai region, has created the latest installment in its large-scale renovation rental series '＆room (Androom)'—the 'Tea Room for Mindful Living'—and has begun publishing it on a dedicated website.

A serene space modeled after an existing tea room has been created within a rental apartment.

The original 4DK floor plan has been renovated into a 2LDK plus tea room layout, featuring a traditional nijiri-guchi entrance leading into an approximately 4.5-tatami-mat tea room.

• A room to momentarily slow down the pace of daily life and reconnect with your inner self

While tea rooms and the tea ceremony may seem formal or rigid, traditional Japanese spaces often evoke a sense of calm and tranquility. This room is not exclusively for tea ceremony enthusiasts; it was created with the intention of offering everyone a chance to step back from the busyness of daily life and information overload, and enjoy a moment of mental reset. Modeled after a real tea room in Inuyama City, Aichi Prefecture, this space carries a quiet atmosphere distinct from everyday living. By immersing oneself in the tactile sensation of tatami mats and a minimalist interior free of distractions, residents can enjoy a slower, more contemplative pace of life within their rental apartment—a place to gently detach from the daily grind.

• A space like 'white space'—not meant for any specific purpose

In modern homes, spaces have clearly defined roles: the LDK is for dining and family time, the workspace for work, and the bedroom for rest—improving convenience and livability. However, spaces that serve no specific function—like 'white space' in design—may be becoming rarer. This tea room offers a small moment of such 'white space' within the home, a place to calm and center the mind. This room proposes that what makes a home livable isn't just size or convenience, but also the presence of spaces that create mental breathing room.
