Descriptions of wabi sabi - the ancient Japanese aesthetic that finds simple beauty in the impermanence of a chipped vase, or a quiet rainy day - are usually found couched in poetry by Japanese philosophers. This book attempts a more practical definition of what some have called "the new feng shui," examining wabi sabi's culture, art, design, and history stemming from its roots in the cha-no-yu (the tea ceremony) in Fifteenth-Century Japan. Juniper, who runs the Wabi-Sabi Art gallery in the UK, includes design tips to help with readers' own decorating projects.
