Awesome. Those soft lights really add a depth to the tokonoma display. Very cool to see everything that goes into Bonsai, including all the woodwork and hard graft. One day, I’ll come and see this all in person.
Looks fantastic, so nice to see the tree in a beautiful setting!

That is GORGEOUS!!! When you turned the light on I got a big smile on my face. So beautiful!!!
You and Eisei-en are wondweful! I'd love a Tokonoma. Serene, simple, spiritual.
looks great i feel like that middle support piece on the bottom should be covered with trim aswell as it kind of draws attention in my opinion
I agree. Initially I thought of boxing in the base with a removable face. Would create a hidden storage space. However it may make the Tokonoma look a bit too boxy.
Great job bjorn looks great something i will be doing in future
Super clean...great focal point. Awesome to see the evolution of Eisei-en!
Looks great! Can't wait to see it in person.
Thanx Björn!
Having a tokonoma is a game changer. I made one out in my garden I love it !
Beautiful, great skills!
Looks pretty nice! Well done and educational also! Thanks for sharing your knowledge, greetings from Mexico...
Looks great! I'd love to know more about using accents, how to pick which ones for styles of trees etc, in the future as well.
love the construction.
Well done Bjorn! It's really fantastic tokonoma,thank you very much for this lesson 👍👍
Very nice! It came out great
Beautiful!
It’s looks good . One suggestion if I may, As you said that it’s should need to hold your big and heavy bonsai. I’m suggesting to put one more support in the middle part that more gives more security when displaying your heaviest bonsai. Extending our regards here in Toronto :)
thats inspiring, i'm going to make one myself
Incredible. Can't wait to see more bonsai displayed in your gorgeous new tokonoma. Enjoying your videos here in Hawaii.
Thank you for sharing, nice video
Looks beautiful, the icing on the cake would be if you would also cover the support post with red oak trim.
Looks very good
This is very well done and beautiful. I'd like something like this in my home
So beautiful concept...😍
Increible! Saludos desde Menorca España!
Always inspirational... thanks brother.
Beautiful,, nice job!!
Looks great
Beautiful 👍
Great!!!! Thanks for sharing.
Great job!!!
Wow... that is nice!
really cool job bjorn!!!!!
Awesome well done man!
Very nice setup
Wow beautifully done. Is that your chojubai? Repotted it in that beautiful blue motif pot. I love 👍
Very nice.
Somehow that space looks a lot bigger than before. I would've gone with a square profile post for the trim in the back, just to cover the corner a bit better. Than again it might have created some weird shadows so it's all about compromises I guess. Really looking forward to your next display.
Nice!
ya didn't cover the centre post! noooo! Also i think your head needs a good pruning haha. Great video!
Looks very clean! Will you be adding tatami in the future?
Functionally, it is similar to a bay window.
Hey, so I was thinking adding your name logo in a Japanese Shodo Calligraphy Art ☺️ [I ’m sorry if I’m writing it wrong]like the way your mother in law made you the wood piece for your garden. . You can look at mine for a reference. But yeah, it would look great 👍
Salute amazing
hello bosai👍👍🙏
If building one of these into a new home would you want it in an area with a lot of natural light or very little natural light? A high traffic area or a low traffic area?
Speaking of wonky,,,,,,,,,,,,,how do you purpose to hang the scrolls
You should get yourself a DeWalt oscillator to cut corners without damaging the walls
Nice video bro! What's the name of the thin wood under the kusamono?

When you're dealing with cuts along an edge, in this case the upright post, with drywall you can just run a utility knife along the post as a guide and score the drywall surface. Then snap the drywall back and finish the cut on the opposite side with the knife. It will give a perfectly uniform edge to work with. Way faster than using a drywall saw for the entire 8' ;)

An additional outside tokoname would be nice. But this looks very nice too.
El pabellón del vacío
José Lezama Lima
Voy con el tornillo
preguntando en la pared,
un sonido sin color
un color tapado con un manto.
Pero vacilo y momentáneamente
ciego, apenas puedo sentirme.
De pronto, recuerdo,
con las uñas voy abriendo
el tokonoma en la pared.
Necesito un pequeño vacío,
allí me voy reduciendo
para reaparecer de nuevo,
palparme y poner la frente en su lugar.
Un pequeño vacío en la pared.
El principio se une con el tokonoma,
en el vacío se puede esconder un canguro
sin perder su saltante júbilo.
La aparición de una cueva
es misteriosa y va desenrollando su terrible.
Esconderse allí es temblar,
los cuernos de los cazadores resuenan
en el bosque congelado.
Pero el vacío es calmoso,
lo podemos atraer con un hilo
e inaugurarlo en la insignificancia.
Araño en la pared con la uña,
la cal va cayendo
como si fuese un pedazo de la concha
de la tortuga celeste.
¿La aridez en el vacío
es el primer y último camino?
Me duermo, en el tokonoma
evaporo el otro que sigue caminando...... Lezama lima!!!!!!!!!!!
👍
Guess I'll have to clear some room.....
Where in the states can you purchase quality bonsai stands?
David Knittle is the best and we'll custom-build it to your needs
@@fashiontim is there a site ?

How does the trees survive under this indoor setting?
It's a display usually seasonal, so the tree is not permanently there. Mostly only short stints or for special occasions.
@@sanitychelle I see thanks for explaining
+Eisei-en Bonsai ,In your Tokonoma
I would have painted the backside of the front pelmet, to reflect the forward light from the light fitting, back and down. This also makes the light whiter, as you are now reflecting the brown colour from the unpainted surface.
I ONLY EVER use 5000K lights/bulbs, from 800Lm for small spaces to 1200-1400Lm for rooms 4mx4mx2.4m high, and then multiples of 1200-1400Lm depending on the space.
3000-4000K Warm White (Orange/Pink/Salmon)
4500-5500K Daylight (Neutral)
6000-8000K Cool White (Blue)
For example, I recently renovated a 3 bedroom unit (Apartment). Paint, carpet, clean, etc. Soft fitting only.
Previous tenants left bulb burnt out and the ones they replaced where with 300-700Lm, 7-10w, 2800K. The apartment looked dark and dingy.... Look now.... Looks spectacular.... The purpose of great lighting....!!!! And cost just AU$80 and a couple of hours to find 15 light bulbs, a step ladder and replace.....

Great addition to Eisei-en, Bjorn. It reminded me of the end section of this video where Shinji Suzuki displays an old red pine in his Tokonoma, including selecting a scroll and display table: czcams.com/video/sy239e68_J0/video.html
It looks great! It really does. But my OCD caught something minor. I hate being “that guy”, but........With the soft lighting inside, the top panel looks like it is painted a different color. ;-)
You have my respect for using the red oak! That stuff eats wood screws for breakfast!
As a plant grower I recoiled when you mentioned your chosen light kelvins, the most balanced kelvin for plants is between 5600K - 6400K which mimics the temperature of daylight. This is also the best kelvin range for photography as it mimics natural light the best. Think you will struggle having the area flooded with natural light and then having such a warm light from above when it comes to correcting the white balance of your images and videos.
Area looks really great though
All you have to do is set the Calvin on the camera to match the Calvin of the lights and he'll be fine
I was expecting you would cover the plywood surface aswell with some better looking wood. Apart from that, it is awesome!
Do you think my Christmas Tree Branch Cuttings will take root? Here's how I did it. czcams.com/video/kbRmZnAtVUM/video.html
Beautiful!
