The videos discussed the architecture of four Asian rooms. The museum had divided the rooms, two were Japanese and the other two were Chinese. All of them were highly organized with the many objects that would belong to each room, like the scholar's room had a varity of old books, writing desk and ornate cricket cages. The fact that the scholar would tickle the insect for music was adorable. One of the rooms I felt had a lot of time put into it. They had mentioned that the room was to have had been made out of perfect wood and gold leaf doors, which we learned the reason for having gold leaf in class. I wonder how they had applied the gold leaf and how much. I have a small bag of thin gold leaf that I use small amounts in paintings. In the video they had said the diangle titles meant a wealthy or important family and I wonder where that idea came from. The tea room looks relaxing. Prehaps in the museum the viewers are served tea. It would be fun to go see these rooms at the museum some day.
