“Sabi” is an aesthetic sense of Japanese culture, probably better known as part of the concept, wabi-sabi. The characteristic of this concept can be expressed as “rustic beauty” in English. The concept of “sabi” places a high value on the richness and charm resulting from the aging process. The tarnished galvanized sheets on Sabino House’s exterior walls, the aged ceiling beam, and the rustic steel covered with mill scale—all of which are the embodiment of this aesthetic value.
Relax in this space - embellished with these components seasoned by the gift of time - and feast your eyes on the vista of rustling maple leaves.
By cherishing these moments Sabino House offers, you will be able to savor this rustic charm.
