The teahouse plays a central role in the Japanese tea ceremony. It is to cha-no-yu, as it is referred to in Japanese, what a museum is to art. The tea house is typically a minimal space, meant to heighten the significance of the ceremony.

That is amazing! I love the whole prism effect with the rainbow and angled glass. What a great way to incorporate this into a building.
