Bamboo trees!!
Some lanterns would be nice too (like the bamboo, paper, or blossom-viewing lanterns). Maybe some bamboo partitions to separate both baths instead of the lattice fence and have a more "nature" view~
Looking forward to seeing your onsen finished!! ♨i have 2 bamboo floor lanturns outside the entrance, so far... blossom-viewing lanterns sound really nice too... i'll have to wait till i can get my hands on the diy, though :3
i'm planning to expand a whole lot of bamboo trees around the whole place :3
A good friend of mine spent just over a year living in Japan while teaching. She wrote a blog about the whole experience (and I talk to her about it frequently), but my understanding is that onsens can look very different from one another. There's the outdoor kind, like Bluelady posted pictures of...there's luxurious ones like you'd see in Spirited Away...and unfortunately there's garbage ones which apparently just look like a small swimming pool surrounded by showers and buckets.
I never heard about any kind of waiting areas though...apparently you go in, one side for male one side for female, then you hit the locker/cubbie area, then a shower station where you sit on a bucket and wash with a cloth, then hit the onsen....and I never asked but I assume the pattern goes in reverse once you're done lol
Here, I'm gonna DM you her blog...there's a ton of pictures (obviously not of the interior of the onsens) and she describes everything really well.i see :3
i know about the male & female part... cause i watched the episode of ojamajo doremi that has one in it :3
