The given picture illustrates the different features between a traditional and modern two-storey Japanese house.
Overall, there are various differences in terms of amenities between two kinds of house in Japan. While people use futons in order to sleep at nights in traditional house, it records that there is a large bedroom equipped with king bed in modern one. Specifically, the house’ structure in both traditional and modern Japanese house includes two storeys and traditional rooms equipped with sliding door.
In terms of traditional house, Japanese people use futons to sleep at nights to take advantage of space, which are located next to cupboard to store folded futon. In the downstairs, kitchen adheres to bathroom whereas the entrance is the right corner of the house. Additionally, stairs position is lied in the front of the entrance to allow family members to go upstairs conveniently. The atmosphere of upstairs primarily makes room for sleep.
Regarding modern Japanese house, while space in the first floor sets aside for living/dining and kitchen, that of upstairs is bathroom and bedrooms, showcasing a more logically organized arrangement. There still has a traditional room in downstairs looking like traditional house and the stairs position remains unchanged.
