4 Types of Japanese Garden Design | Large and Small Garden Ideas From Traditional Japanese Gardens
If you are like me there’s something that draws you into the Japanese garden, but you can’t always explain what it is. In the beginning, I was intrigued, but also sort of confused in a way because I was lumping different styles of gardens together. It wasn’t until I began more seriously researching Japanese gardens and undergoing an apprenticeship in Osaka and Fukui that I began to grasp the differences in the 4 types of Japanese garden design. Decide Your Japanese Garden Style...

Your knowledge is the best. My small space is a combo of court yard and tea house.My problem is editing and finding the elements to complete the vision. Thank you for the examples, I love this!
Glad I could help! Good luck on your project.
This is fantastic. Thank you for explaining it so well. I am writing a report for university and this is exactly what I was missing. God bless you!
Glad you liked it and hope it helps!
Much thanks, in many ways, for your gifts and garden delights.
Awesome video. We are designing our courtyard and want an Japanese inspired garden with only subtle influences. You've helped us to understand what makes a Japanese garden and this has helped us to decide what elements to use in our garden.
Great to hear! It's not all about throwing in a lantern and red bridge.
1. The Japanese Strolling Garden (Kaiyu-Shiki) 2. Zen/Rock Garden (Karesansui) 8:20 3. The Courtyard Garden (tsubo-niwa) 4. The tea garden/Heritage Garden (Rogi) . thanks
Thank you! Well done and so appreciated by this admiring, curious novice.
Thanks for the video! I am studying about the japanese garden and his cultures and you are helping me alot, thanks man!
My pleasure! Have fun exploring them, there are so many different styles.
@@ShizenStyle 😊😊
Excellent! I want to make a Japenese style garden in my 1000 ft2 side yard, and thanks to this video i now know in the tea garden style. Well produced - you had the names up long enough to read, which often isnt the case on KZhead videos
Thanks so much for watching, glad it helps!
love all your inspiration, explanations, & will take a lot of your info to my japanese garden.
Thank you for this thoroughly enjoyable video. Beautiful photography and such useful information. Just subscribed.
I'm glad you're enjoying it and thanks for subscribing!
This was a really informative video; thanks for your insights. I will be visiting Japan this year ( Kyoto) - Just subscribed
Glad it was helpful! And Kyoto will be great.
@@ShizenStyle Thanks. Do you have any recommendations? We are there for four nights, so three full days and one night in Tokyo with a late flight so about 7 hours in Tokyo free. Cheers from NZ
A very pretty, overlooked Japanese garden is the Mytoi Garden on Chappaquidick Island.
Wow
Nice video! Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Greetings from Poland :)
My pleasure!
Subscribed!
Thanks for your vids!
My pleasure!
Thank you. Shared this one as well....
Thanks for that!
Great video, thank you!
My pleasure!
Thank you for this. I live in a condo with an adjacent raised garden that is 30" above ground, and an irregular shape approx. 7' x 9'. I'm trying to create a Japanese-style garden within those confines. Fortunately, the background includes a beautiful dogwood tree and evergreens. The Tsubo-niwa is the obvious choice, and I'm attempting to keep it simple - not an easy task for a plantaholic! Thx again
Sounds great! Simple can be the most difficult thing. Editing is often harder than writing.
Beautiful video. Subbed.
Awesome, thank you!
I just wanted to say thanks for producing such great video content and also for covering this subject matter so thoughtfully. I've been doing a fair amount of hardscaping with large boulders (5-10klbs +), stairs and paths and stumbled upon your videos while looking for inspiration. I've had some great takeaways but looking for even more content about paths, rock gardens and sculpture. Do you have any books to recommend? I'd love to have something (in addition to your videos) to share with clients for inspiration and ideas. I have two questions, what is the vertical sculpture in this video at 3:15 and where can I find out more about the rake that is used to create the rows in the sand. I want to make one as authentically as possible. Thanks again Joshua.
✨"Thank you very much"✨🐋
Welcome 😊
Thank you.🤗😊🦋💐👌
You're welcome 😊
Awsm brother 💚
Thanks ✌️
I grew up in Yokohama for 16 years. and want to do something on this property in the states. Just on a way bigger scale ⚖️
That sounds cool. Be careful though, the bigger the scale the more you have to take care of!
Curious... What zone/state are you in? Beautiful video.
Thanks, I'm in NY just outside of Buffalo. The Zone is 5a.
What is the name of the garden at 9:00?
This is from the The Japanese Garden in Shitennoji Temple called the Gokuraku-Jodo Garden, or the Garden of Paradise. Specifically the dry rock garden is called the "Fudaraku Garden." Here is some more info on it: shizenstyle.com/japanese-garden-in-shitennoji-temple-gokuraku-jodo-garden/
@@ShizenStyle thank you for such a detailed reply and for the amazing content you bring us!
Did you mean 11ft x 11ft ? 11ft2 is very small right?
🤦🏻You're right! I meant 11ft x11ft. You do see many 11ft x 2 ft gardens in front of restaurants or with a garden wall behind them. Courtyard gardens are usually bigger than that though.
Knowledgeable, but it's a shame you constantly look slightly angry 😠. A smile would help things along a lot and improve the viewing experience overall.
Thanks for the feedback David. Expressing myself and my passions on camera is something I really need to continue to develop 👍
I have subscribed. I'm glad you take my comment positively. I understand about being passionate. I love nobedan stone work👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I have no idea what this guy is about, you don't look angry at all to me. Anyway, I subscribed for your knowledge and analyses of japanese gardens, there are too few serious videos on the matter.
That never across my mind that he looks angry. Some people could be misjudged because of their natural facial expression.
David wants a kids tv presenter I think. Nothing worse than fake, you do you mate.
This is such a wonderful primer. I am now thinking how best to improve (or rather restore) my garden in Tokyo. The woman who built the house spent a lot of time thinking about little details and there are lots of decisions for me as to if/how I should keep her layout or change to something new.
Keep the areas that speak to you, add your own voice to the rest. A blend of the traditional and the modern is a great way for the garden to continue to grow and be a link to different generations. Try not to create something where the maintenance overwhelms you later though 😏
