modernist exterior shot a calm and elegant japanese style living space inspired by the lifestyle of a sophisticated woman in her 40s the room features soft natural light light gray walls and warm wood accents the flooring is natural wood in a slightly darker tone creating a grounded atmosphere furnishings include a soft beige or off white fabric sofa a simple wooden coffee table and shelves with neatly arranged books ceramics and art pieces the layout shows subtle signs of daily life like a loosely folded blanket a cat lounging by the window or a linen shirt draped over a chair lighting is warm and gentle coming from indirect sources and scandinavian style paper lamps curtains are light and sheer softly filtering the morning sun outside the window a lush green courtyard with trees and shrubs from a japanese residential complex danchi can be seen adding a touch of peaceful nature to the scene the overall impression should be refined yet lived in minimal but not cold balancing design and comfort in a way that evokes the instagram aesthetic of yuriko ishida architecture
