Sitting now in my mostly emptied apartment. There is definitely something to the Japanese style of living.
Last year we visited the Imperial Palaces in Kyoto and Toyko. It was kind of the opposite of what you and I would normally consider royal grounds-no gaudy furniture, no over the top decor. We laughed a bit because the rooms are basically just empty. Now they do have really nice floor coverings and painted walls. But it is definitely much more simple than most "Royal" palaces.

Yet now sitting here, I can see the piece in that kind of space. Not a lot to visually occupy your mind, but what you do have is spectacular. Definitely something can be said for that.
