The Holy Cross Garden and Teahouse can incorporate both types of garden
in their authentic traditional forms, sited around a small teahouse
constructed of traditional materials, yet modernized enough for three-season
use.
The Roji will lead visitors on a stone path to a multi-purpose
teahouse.
The Teahouse can be designed for utilization in three modes, through
sliding internal partitions and wall panels opening to the outside:
- a tatami mat teahouse proper where a master can serve three guests;
- an adjoining tatami mat multi-purpose room, large enough to accommodate
20 individual meditators - will face the dry landscape garden;
- The Dry Landscape Garden will be viewed from the teahouse.
