For Lisa's part of the structure, Robert's taken inspiration
from Japan. The temple-inspired roof, tatami mat flooring
and diffused light are all hallmarks
of Japanese design. But there's more to it
than just aesthetics. So what is the idea? How are you supposed to feel
in a room like that? OK, so the whole kind of idea
of meditation or yoga is principally a practice
that's on the floor. When you arrive, the door is
lower than the standard door height. So it's almost like you have to...
You're genuflecting. OK. You know, it's almost like
in reverence. So, you're in this space and then
almost because of the nature of the space, you sit on the floor,
so it makes you feel straight away, you're sitting on the floor,
just by the architecture. So impact how people actually behave
within this setting. Exactly

For Lisa's part of the structure,
00:00:02.008 --> 00:00:05.036
Robert's taken inspiration
from Japan.
00:00:06.084 --> 00:00:08.032
The temple-inspired roof,
00:00:08.032 --> 00:00:10.044
tatami mat flooring
and diffused light
00:00:10.044 --> 00:00:13.056
are all hallmarks
of Japanese design.
00:00:14.092 --> 00:00:17.012
But there's more to it
than just aesthetics.
00:00:18.044 --> 00:00:20.024
So what is the idea?
00:00:20.024 --> 00:00:22.084
How are you supposed to feel
in a room like that?
00:00:22.084 --> 00:00:27.044
OK, so the whole kind of idea
of meditation or yoga is
00:00:27.044 --> 00:00:30.999
principally a practice
that's on the floor.
00:00:30.999 --> 00:00:33.096
When you arrive, the door is
lower than the standard door height.
00:00:33.096 --> 00:00:38.999
So it's almost like you have to...
You're genuflecting. OK.
00:00:38.999 --> 00:00:40.024
You know, it's almost like
in reverence.
00:00:40.024 --> 00:00:43.092
So, you're in this space and then
almost because of the nature
00:00:43.092 --> 00:00:47.028
of the space, you sit on the floor,
so it makes you feel straight away,
00:00:47.028 --> 00:00:50.036
you're sitting on the floor,
just by the architecture.
00:00:50.036 --> 00:00:53.084
So impact how people actually behave
within this setting. Exactly.
