Japanese Thatch Roof Renovation - Mélanie Heresbach of 2m26 in rural Kyoto

Seek Sustainable Japan

As a part of the 2024 Minka Summit in rural Kyoto, we had the chance to visit the stunning KAYABUKI thatch roof MINKA traditional home and atelier art studio of talented design team 2m26 Mélanie and Sebastien. Here Mélanie talks about the process of changing their roof from metal and tile back to natural straw thatch roof over the last year.
