'Perfect' captures the lived reality of traditional Japanese interiors—tatami rooms, wooden floors, and the quiet rhythm of daily life. While these spaces are often seen as minimalist and pristine, this series revels their true texture: the warmth, the mess, and the presence of life within.

Through this lens, the beauty of imperfection emerges, inviting viewers to see Japanese interiors as lived, dynamic, and deeply human.
