Nestled within the historic walls of The Nathaniel Friend House (est. 1816), Wabi-Sabi incorporated many of the original materials that may have been
uprooted from the renovation process and rehoused to feature an inventive and one-of-a-kind decor.

What Is Wabi-Sabi?
The Japanese use this term as a aesthetic mode. In laymen's terms:
Wabi-Sabi is a beauty of things imperfect...
It is a beauty of things modest and humble.
It is a beauty of things unconventional.
It may also be considered a way of life...
