Trinity Blakewell Posted May 18, 2022 Author Share Posted May 18, 2022 Evolving Images - medium size furnishings store. A lot of it seems more Chinese than Japanese. Textures could stand to be upgraded/updated on a lot of these items. A light wood mesh kitchen in a u-shape that would work well in Asian houses, I think, for $L190. Not the best detail/texturing (especially the stove/oven). Refrigerator is priced seperately. One of the nicer things I saw was a couple of Crane figurines, textured to look like Pewter, at $L49each. RH Design House - general home furnishings store. Some pretty floor cushions (Zabuton) for $L150 for 3 to 4 designs, so if you don't like what came with your Japanese Dining set, see what they've got here. Monkey Boy (across the street from RH Design House) - Food, builds and decor. Not just Japanese, but other Asian items as well Animated Sky Lanterns for $L150 - that's the first time in a while I've seen them available. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trinity Blakewell Posted May 19, 2022 Author Share Posted May 19, 2022 I think this article is a pretty good resource for what is distinctive about modern Japanese Interior Design: https://www.tripzilla.com/modern-japanese-interior-design/126974 I'll add a couple of things just based on my albeit limited research: Think of a cross between minimalist and Scandinavian Light wood More white, tan and light grey than black Most items I've seen in my research avoid mid-century style influence Most items I've seen avoid a "heavy" look in terms of the furniture weight (IE, legs on coffee tables and chairs, etc.) Also, most items avoided harsh angles Circle-shaped shelves and cutouts in wall units Along with the low dining tables, you'll see low coffee tables, low beds, low sofas, even low desks. Some ideas (links to Marketplace for convenience, but most items available in-world. Also, links to PG but there are adult versions available for most items) Kitchen: Atelier Burgundy .

I've done it in RL when getting something the day before it was put on sale, and the stores have always reimbursed me the difference. There's nothing to lose...

Frigga Freidman Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 (edited) Merak has this 11 LI sofa on sale - PG $60 A $75. There are 2 other versions, one with brightly colored pillows and the other is all white. The shell pillows are sold separately for $60. Some decor items and a bed (but 28 LI!) are also on sale. WARNING: I could see that this sofa was too big for my avatar, but assumed it could be resized down slightly, maybe even saving a LI or two - it cannot be resized!!!

Frigga Freidman Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Given that I have a collection of doll houses in my Vic, I just had to grab this cabinet from Serenity Style!

Thanks for a direct link - I've seen a few bloggers use this and I kept forgetting to search for it. I had to pack up my dolls house wall / collection but it may one day find a new home. Has not stopped me collecting though! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marianne Little Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Check out this from Zen Creations. The listing on the Marketplace has land impact. https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Japanese-Yorokobi-Bedroom-Adult-Color-Change-Sex-Bedroom-Adult-PG-versions-both-included/9239539 https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Japanese-Ocha-Color-Change-Tea-Table-Set/9753912 The store has many other things that can work with Sakura. Also some nice 1 L things. A bed, vanity, art, lamps... One thing I like is that items like beds comes with both PG and Adult version. Consider that some items like beds only have resizer and HUD to change textures, while decor items are fully mod. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re: The Nutmeg mint tea set: Yes, you can resize it and it's still available at the sale price (Mon 7:00am SLT) What you *can't* do is unlink and remove the contents from the tumblers, but you can make those contents transparent to use them as vases.

Select faces and make them transparent is a great idea for things. I bought this clothesline for drying beachwear. Something for all romantic/beach locations. I can't edit off the "destroyed" fence parts to each side, but I can select their faces, turn them transparent and are left with only the poles and clothesline. It can be planted in a lawn then. 4 Li is not bad. It is not very big in the default size, but realistic. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may already know this, but as others may not, it is worth mentioning. Often when a modifiable item won't shrink, it is due to a member of the linkset being at the minimum size. Most often, it is the shadow object already being at minimum thickness. If you edit just the linked shadow object, and make it thicker, you can usually then shrink the entire linkset. 3 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
