Shibui Room The epitome of restrained elegance, the Shibui Room is the favorite of the Club’s dining rooms. Soft décor on a more intimate scale creates a tranquil place for lunches, meetings, brunch, showers, or receptions. It’s a room for all seasons, with an inviting fireplace as a warm focal point in the winter, and sun-splashed atrium overlooking the pool in summer. Other times of the year, the view of flowering trees or autumn foliage naturally draws people into this lovely room. In Japanese, the word Shibui may be used in many ways to describe design in rooms, subtle beauty in furnishings or clothing, and even artful presentation of food. It connotes a warm aesthetic feeling of natural beauty, restrained pattern and color, and purity of form. The unpretentious artistry of the concept is not dull, but interesting in its simplicity and creation of tranquility. In Japan, Shibui is considered the ultimate in taste – as is the Shibui Room.		When beauty reaches great subtlety, say the Japanese – as in maple leaves breaching a bamboo fence, or rusty rivets in an old wooden door – they call the effect shibui, meaning restrained elegance.      Click below to view another room: Ballroom Fireplace Room Founders Room Henry Center Dining Room Fireplace Lounge Shibui Room Rooms 106-107
