Japanese Style

Episode 109: Japanese Style

Designer Allen Trigueiro brings Japanese style and elegance to an average, plain-looking tract home. He does this by adding a bamboo screen and a rice-paper light at the front door, a miniature Japanese-style landscape around the mailbox area, cedar trim around the front door and post, and plants that will greet visitors as they approach the front entry.

The goal is to carry the Japanese theme from the tea garden in the wide yard into the large and empty front carport.
