This was the room the house showed to the street: shallow, formal, screened by the wooden lattice that every weaver's house in Nishijin wore. In the afternoon the lattice throws lines across the tatami that move as the sun goes.
Six mats, a low table, a deep window seat. Futons are laid in the evening and put away in the morning, which is how the room stays a room rather than a bedroom.
