Easily assembled
Rakutei is designed to be assembled so that anyone can easily install a Japanese garden. On top of that, it is made so that anyone can install it and have it finished exactly the same as if it had been made by a professional. There are several designs of Rakutei, but the assembly procedure is the same. No nails or screws are used in the assembly process, which makes use of traditional Japanese landscaping techniques. The finished product conveys a wabi-sabi atmosphere with the most respect for authentic materials. The assembled rakutei is designed to be disassembled and reassembled as many times as necessary. Once you get used to it, you can complete the assembly in very little time. The assembly procedure is described below.
