Venice and the Glass Tea House adds water on water on water. Because in Venice you can walk and walk. You get lost once and then again; wandering alone, without a goal, just to fill your eyes and heart with something unique. It is not only the water on which floats the city. The magic of the gondola that take around tourists in love. The colorful buildings, the steamers and the enchanted stories that those streets and the stucco gold could tell.
In Venice, creativity is more intense than ever, and the effect is spread across the lagoon. On the Island of San Giorgio Maggiore there is a very small piece of Japan. In the middle of a water courtyard, a glass box suspended in an open space clearly oriental inspiration. Metaphysics in minimalist design and ethereal materials, sophisticated composition. Hiroshi Sugimoto has created here a display case for the tea ceremony. Until 30 November 2015, you will be able to go there with a book or a notebook to write the best thoughts, draw or just thinking. And I’m sure something good will not be long in coming.
