Do Japanese houses have tatami mats?
In Japan, more than 70% of houses have Japanese-style rooms or tatami rooms.
The proportion is increasing year by year.
As a rush at the base of the tatami mat, there are countless small holes in the stem.
This shape is like a sponge and can absorb moisture from the air.
Then, exhale the absorbed air and breathe again.
It circulates air like breathing.
Therefore, rush grass is also known as "natural air conditioning".
It is the most suitable flooring material for Japan's hot and humid climate.
In addition, the unique rush smell has the effect of forest bathing.
It can relax your tired mind.
Research from the Department of Engineering at the University of Tokyo has shown that rush grass can adsorb nitrogen dioxide that is harmful to the human body.
