Japanese House No. 2 - Timber Frame Construction Series - "Finishing Touches" - October 2021
In this video, we return to the Murakami House and meet with some of the other craftsman who help to bring the finishing design details to this house.
There are a lot of traditional details that have been added since we built the frame of this house. In the past 3 months, the carpenters at Fujimoto Traditional Carpentry Company worked tirelessly adding the interior and exterior finishes which included insulation, electrical, plumbing, flooring, bathroom fixtures, and kitchen fixtures. However, in this video we meet with other craftsman that have added their high skilled and labor intensive touches.
We see a new earthen floor made from pounding dirt or local soil until it's hard and smooth. This forms the entry way to the house. Later we talk with a craftsman that has been working with his team to add the doors and partitions through out. We also talk with a tatami mat manufacturer who built several tatami mats the old way. A skill that is becoming lost as we continue to modernize.
