Amanara Sanctuary Main View

Architectural Narrative

Tucked away in the serene foothills of Kyoto's Higashiyama district, Amanara Sanctuary represents a harmonious dialogue between historic Japanese craft and modern minimalist design. Constructed using ancient interlocking Hinoki wood techniques and local granite, the villa features an active private hot spring (Onsen) pavilion and an expansive dry rock Zen garden with authentic stone lanterns. Sliding cedar Shoji screens partition the sprawling living quarters, opening up to a tranquil central koi pond spanned by a hand-carved wooden bridge.
