FOR SALE! A unique, Zen-inspired high-quality luxury townhouse in Quezon City, or Metro Manila
Japan's Zen-inspired architecture, philsophy and aesthetic style trace their roots to a school of thought in 6th century China, which spread to other parts of East Asia and most specially to Japan.
I admire this minimalist Zen style. I saw one example in a townhouse here in Metro Manila, the Philippines, and it's FOR SALE. Visit, there's a caretaker. No shoes allowed, just use their slippers inside.
STORY: A rich provincial couple bought this Japanese-built townhouse for their young doctor son, but when his petition to migrate to the U.S. was eventually approved, he left for America so the parents decided to sell ....

“Wabi-Sabi Inspirations” is a collection of traditional Japanese houses available for rent that reflect the tenets of Wabi-Sabi design.
But what is “Wabi-Sabi” and why does it inspire? Wabi-sabi is not only a style, but a Japanese philosophy based in Zen and built on three principles: nothing lasts, nothing ends, and nothing is perfect.
“Wabi” means a deliberate humility, a lack of materialism, and a deep connection with the environment.
“Sabi” is different. It literally translates as “bloom of time.”

Wabi Sabi: Japanese Style to Inspire
“Wabi-Sabi Inspirations” is a collection of traditional Japanese houses available for rent that reflect the tenets of Wabi-Sabi design.
But what is “Wabi-Sabi” and why does it inspire? Wabi-sabi is not only a style, but a Japanese philosophy based in Zen and built on three principles: nothing lasts, nothing ends, and nothing is perfect.
“Wabi” means a deliberate humility, a lack of materialism, and a deep connection with the environment.
“Sabi” is different. It literally translates as “bloom of time.”
Taken together, Wabi-Sabi is a worldview that perceives beauty in roughness, elegance in imperfection, and serenity in the natural process of decay. Wabi-Sabi is homespun and homemade, the chip on the lip of a pot, the patina on a copper box, the new colors and textures objects take on as they age.
More than just aesthetics, wabi-sabi extends into all parts of life. It’s a philosophy that believes enlightenment comes with the acceptance of material impermanence.
Tranquil and traditional, these rentals represent the wabi-sabi philosophy of modesty, economy, and intimacy in all things. “Wabi-Sabi Inspirations” will introduce you to the rustic grace of wabi-sabi, and inspire you to experience it for yourself.
We invite you to comment and suggest your own Wabi-Sabi inspirations.
