THE THOUSAND KYOTO
（Page 160）
“Confort Minimalism” is a concept of the interior of this hotel, which is related to Japanese cultural tradition and zen buddhism. It is the design based upon an aesthetics of deduction that vitalizes the expression of light, wind, green, and art in this establishment. Providing a calm and comfortable atmosphere, the spatial design reminds us of aesthetics of both Kyoto and Japan. For example, visitors will encounter various types of Japanese garden:mae-niwa, tsuboniwa, tori-niwa, naka-niwa, and oku-niwa. (niwa means garden in Japanese). The sequence of the series of these gardens is composed two-dimensionally and threedimensionally. Everywhere is full of natural light and you can enjoy seeing the passage of time.
