Yozakura Gekka - Cherry Blossoms under the Moon It began with one painting. This traditional Japanese style painting is called Yozakura Gekka by Hiroshi Senju, featuring an exquisite weeping cherry tree in blossom lit by the moonlight. The owner asked for a private space for it, where he could dwell quietly and feel the beauty of falling petals, in a simple but elegant place. To incorporate the owner’s love for the painting and cherry blossoms, the concept for this project proposed that the painting was to become the center of the house, rather than creating a space to exhibit it.
