An inner square room with plaster walls contains a chōdai sleeping canopy; a second inner room with kabeshiro wall-curtains contains byōbu folding screens; the far outer wall shows horizontally-hinged shitomi shutters, and the near outer wall has misu blinds. Kichō screens stand on the near side of the hishashi outer corridor, and on the short sides of the same corridor.

On the young man's side, hajitomi shutters, horizontally split, with the upper half held up by hooks. On the nun's side, there are diagonally-planked sliding maira-do. Behind the young man speaking with the maidservant, similar non-sliding panels.
