RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Japan is one of the country known for its deep culture. To proper develop the Tea Pavilion and the onsen, study of tea ceremony and various types of onsen has been done. The motivation
is also to preserve the authenticity while adapting to modern way of living. For example, the way of preparing the tea done at the Tea Pavilion is a mixed of Japanese and Chinese style. To take that into consideration for the space planning and material selection for the Tea Pavilion.
CHALLENGE: One of the exciting part of Pavilia Hill is the black indoor pool with it's gold leaf ceiling. As this pool has openable windows to the view of the green hill behind, it can be either indoor or half outdoor depending of the season. The gold leaf ceiling is to reflect the beauty of the different looks of the outside season. It is nicer to capture all these with dark space, thus the black pool.
