Introductory paragraph with thesis statement, followed by supporting evidence in the Main Body, and a Conclusion rehearsing the main ideas of your thesis (i.e. summarizing what you have proved) Paper Topic: How the zen philosophy and Wabi-sabi influence Japanese interior design. I am interested in tracking the influence of “Zen” in Japanese interior design. The minimalist design aesthetic has always been best executed in Japan and it is traced back to the practice of being focused and purposeful. I want to learn more about how an empty space can liberate a person and help connect humans with nature. Use examples of specific interior homes and Japanese interior designers. https://youtu.be/QmHLYhxYVjA
