In this episode, Jaya shares insights and tips from his experience with a traditional Japanese house remodel. He is the first guest in the remodel topic who bought his AKIYA (abandoned house) at auction.

I am so impressed by the amount of work he has done and the beautiful design of the house and garden- it is so hard to have that type of vision for how you want a project to go when you first buy something.

What did you find interesting, inspiring and surprising about Jaya's remodel? I'd love to hear what you think- please add your comments and questions below!
