SILICON VALLEY TEA HOUSES


Swatt Miers Architects designed these three very simple houses in Silicon Valley, California. Each house has a unique purpose. The first 270 square foot space is the meditation tea house used for individual contemplation. The next space at 372 square feet is the sleeping tea house used for overnight stays. The third tea house at 492 square feet is the visioning tea house used for intimate gatherings and creative thinking. Each space is about quiet simplicity. No phones or televisions are found in the home.
