The Birthplace of Kyoto's Textile Culture: Uzumasa

Uzumasa(太秦), located in the rightmost part of Kyoto's Ukyo Ward, derives its name from the ancient Hata clan(秦氏). Inspired by the history of textiles brought to Japan by the Hata clan, this is a Kyomachiya produced by Hachise with a blend of tradition and modernity. The interior is adorned with textile coverings on the walls, offering a view of the garden from the Living-Dining-Kitchen with an exposed beam running over the ceiling and a 4.5-mat Tatami room. While exuding the charm of a traditional Machiya townhouse, it also incorporates contemporary conveniences. How about settling into this comfortable single-story living space?

Feel the rich history of Uzumasa - Uzumasa Koryuji Temple, founded by Hatano Kawakatsu, features Buddhist statues dating back to the Asuka period which evokes a sense of historical romance.

POINT織物と京町家

A tranquil Machiya nestled in an alley of a residential area

Discover this serene Kyomachiya by following a small path through a residential neighborhood between "Kaikonoyashiro Sta." and "Uzumasa-Koryuji Sta." where the Randen railroad runs. It boasts a peaceful ambiance with traditional "Koshi" lattice windows and a wainscoted exterior. There's also space to park bicycles behind the lattice doors.

Entrance and the Living-Dining-Kitchen

Pass through an entrance with a niche adorned with textile wallpaper, and you'll step into a spacious LDK covering approx. 15.9-Tatami-mats. Despite its small entrance, the space feels open with an impressive ceiling height and an unobstructed view upon entering.

Living-Dining-Kitchen with a garden view

The LDK features subdued tones on the floor and ceiling, creating a calm atmosphere. When you gaze outside from indoors, the well-lit foliage appears almost ethereal. Here, you can enjoy the changing character of the garden throughout the day and seasons.

 

Sloping ceilings and exposed beams

While this Kyomachiya boasts a compact layout, the sloping ceiling mimicking an attic adds an expansive feeling. Indirect lighting highlights the exposed beams, adding depth and character to the space.

Kyoto-produced textile wall coverings

The interior walls are adorned with textile wallpaper produced in Kyoto. Made with organic cotton, they offer a soft texture and a natural feel. The sericulture (silk farming) and textile weaving techniques, which are part of the history of textile production, were introduced to Japan by the Hata clan, making them the precursors of the famous Nishijin weaving in Kyoto. This home pays homage to the rich tradition of textiles passed down through the ages.

Cozy Japanese-style room

The 4.5-mat Japanese-style room features unbordered Tatami mats and walls adorned with textile wallpaper that are gently illuminated by spotlights. The lattice-framed bay window allows a soft influx of natural light. Ample storage space is another convenient feature of this room.
