Tatami mats as we know them today are believed to have existed as early as the Nara period (710-794), and many houses still have at least one tatami room.
Although Japanese people love such floors, they are actually very troublesome to handle.
They easily get dented when tables and chairs are placed on them, get dirty when walking barefoot, and need to be replaced every few years...
So why have Japanese people been using such floors?
1. High cushioning
It was soft flooring by Japanese who used to sleep on the floor.
2. Air purification effect
Adsorbs nitrogen dioxide and formaldehyde.
3. Humidity control
It is cool when hot and warm when cold.
4. High soundproofing and vibration-proofing performance
Absorbs sound, creating a naturally calm space
5. Relaxing effect of fragrance
Contains the same ingredients as forest bath, vanilla essence, and black tea.
Obviously, if there were only disadvantages, it would not have continued to be used for hundreds of years.
When you visit Japan, please pay attention to Tatami.

I watched the process of tatami fabrication a few days ago. That is crazy time intensive. No wonder they are expensive!

I was fortunate to sleep in a tatami room with a futon when I was on an exchange in Japan. I loved it so much that to this day I sleep on a futon. I wish I also had tatami but they are hard to come by in Canada!

I LOVE the smell of tatami!

I have slept in a Ryokan when I was in Japan in early spring this year. I absolutely loved the tatami. They smell amazing!

I agree with most of your points, but I can't help but think that point two was found out relatively recently π

I don't think the soundproofing argument works since the
Japanese are known for their paper walls and doors.

If you like in Okinawa prefecture...add the mold...tatami and high humidity doesn't mix well π

I have a tatami mat and futon, and I can attest that they are a wonderful addition to any home. There is no better place to sleep on a hot summer night than a tatami mat, and my small bedroom still feels nice and open because I can just fold up my mattress and put it away during the day.
The only annoying part is airing my futon, but that's less of a fault of the mattress and more of my porch being too small to easily navigate when you're carrying it.

I found a video of the process of removing worn-out tatami, making new ones start to finish, and reinstalling them. The video is so relaxing that I've used it a few times to help me fall asleep! It's such an interesting process!

I really love your cultural posts. Much respect for this ancient civilization.

I'm in the very slow process of turning one of my bedrooms into a tatami room to have uresenke practice in. Unfortunately it's so expensive that I've been only able to get a couple so far. Long term goals are to replace the current door with a pocket door as well and get sleeping futons for guests.

I see how you sped through number 4 without explanation, my guy. I got it. π

Very interesting short! I hadn't thought about the problem aspects of upkeep!

I wish there was an easy way to get them over here.

I'm sorry what? Japan has to worry about formaldehyde just floating around?

Lived in Japan for 3 years. I love tatami mats, which I had in my bedroom and pretty much every home I went to had them in the bedrooms. They have a clean aesthetic like hard floors, but they are warm and soft on your feet, and and they don't show every single spec of dust like a hard floor so you just have to run over them with a vacuum every now and then, they don't look immediately dirty the next day like hard floors

Just got back from Japan everything you mentioned is true. I really like the feel when walking on them.

Yes! Love the smell of tatami!

Tatami persist because, in addition to their benefits, they are culturally iconic. In a very real way, tatami are part of the soul of being Japanese, and they have resisted being modernized, even though Japanese industry is famed for its ability to modernize and refine classic designs. I would love to have a tatami bed, which is essentially one tatami mat in a raised wooden frame intended for sleeping, but here in the US, they are very expensive.
