Both my husband and I traveled after college and each of us became enchanted with Japanese customs.  We love the decorating, the food, and especially the beautiful bathing tubs which are everywhere in Japan.  There was no doubt in our minds that when we built our dream home it would have an oriental theme.  We have Japanese gardens, furnishings, and bathrooms.  The highlight of each of the bathrooms is a japanese soaking tub, where family members can relax at the end of the day.  Our home is more than a place to live and work.  It is a sanctuary which allows us to get away from stress and find peace.
