A 4 1/2 mat tea ceremony room *chashitsu ’ƒŽΊ, the most common size room. Mats are usually 190.95cm x 95.45cm, but the room may be larger with the addition of various structural elements. The calculation of the tea ceremony room size is called tatamiwari τŠ„ and is mainly used in the Kansai ŠΦΌ area, but seems not to have influenced tea ceremony structures in the Kyoto area. Typically, the half mat is placed in the center of the tea ceremony room. When the sunken fire-box *ro ˜F, is placed into this mat it is called *rodatami ˜Fτ. The other mats are placed, one after the other in a pattern called the chase-around type.
In a 4 1/2 mat tea ceremony room in the normal position hongatte –{ŸŽθ, the alcove is on the right at the back of the room. The mat for a high ranking guest *kinindatami ‹Mlτ, is at the front of the alcove. In the front wall near the guest mat *kyakudatami ‹qτ, is a small crawl-in or wiggle-in entrance. It has an entrance mat called a *fumikomidatami “₯žτ. This tea ceremony room should also have a utensil mat *dougudatami “Ή‹οτ, which will sometimes double as the host's mat *temaedatami “_‘Oτ.
These mat positions are only used in the fall and winter when a sunken firebox is used. In the spring the firebox is covered and a portable stove *furo •—˜F, is used to heat water. The kinindatami and dougudatami remain as they are, but the two guests mats are placed in front of the kinindatami. The half size mat is set in front of the host's entrance *sadouguchi ’ƒ“ΉŒϋ, and is called a step-in mat. The *gyakugatte ‹tŸŽθ method exactly reverses these normal positions.
The yojouhan tea ceremony room is attributed to Murata Jukou ‘Ί“cŽμŒυ (1422-1502) and became a formal type tea ceremony room during the time of Takeno Jouou •–μΠ‰¨ (1504-1555). It became the dominant tea ceremony room during the time of Sen Rikyuuη—˜‹x (1522-1591).
