This is a different view of the tea house. The low bamboo fence helps to define the relation of the tea house to the garden. The ridge roof architectural style (kirizuma) is very evident in this photo. The roof has layered cedar shingles and is topped at the ridge with Japanese ceramic tiles.

This Garden Tool Stash is a great place to hold those important "go to tools" that you call on the most when you are in the garden. This exterior of this model is done in Shou-Sugi-Ban. An old Japanese technique to preserving wood by burning the surface. After burning, the charred surface is brushed and rinsed. The final step in the process is then to apply a coat of a wood protecting oil. This process produces a textured surface with a silk-like sheen and smoothness. www.teracottage.com

The original orchid house and gardening shed was destroyed by Hurricane Irma in 2017. We re-built this structure in the same location on the property and added a few upgrades to the old structure. Not only does it now meet 180+ hurricane wind codes it also has a skylight beaming natural light into the storage shed area. We also installed a v-crimp metal roof. We custom made some Sapele Mahogany lattice for hanging orchids and a outdoor ceiling fan for hot summer days. The wood siding was made in a board and batten design and is made from Red Grandis, a Eucalyptus that is a sustainable product and perfect for outdoors. We finished the siding with an exterior grey stain with the intention for the structure to blend in with the surrounding landscaping.

The scroll was designed to say "REST, RELAX, REFLECT".
The custom rectangular window creates an 8" deep granite ledge, looking out into the hillside woodland setting.

The elements in the Tea House are arranged in accordance with the Bagua.
The walls are finished in Japanese stucco, with cedar wainscoting, and straight grain Douglas Fir trim. The cathedral ceiling is framed in Cedar, with cedar tongue and groove planking.
The floor is straight grain Douglas Fir.
A custom table was designed to fit below the far window, made from the same slab of Utile that was used for the ridge beam.

Exterior of a Japanese tea house. Fully insulated building with heating. A traditional shoji window panel on the side of the building. Roof made with Canadian Cedar shingles. The front corner of the building overhangs the pond. The Japanese tea house was constructed to compliment an existing Japanese stream and pond.

One of my favorite objects I've ever created. Just stunning. The Japanese inspired fence work by the firm as well.
