The Kikuya Residence (菊屋家住宅), once home to a samurai-turned-merchant family, is one of the most remarkable old residences in the former castle town of Hagi. Renowned for their contributions to the local community, the Kikuya family’s home showcases their legacy.
Despite being around 350 years old, the residence features some surprisingly modern interior design elements. One standout feature is a room with sliding doors that can turn corners, allowing it to fully open to the garden outside, blending the indoors with nature. The Kikuya Residence offers a fascinating look at the intersection of tradition and innovation.
