Shoka shimputai (created by the current head master Senei Ikenobo in 1977) has Yin (Shu) and Yang (Yo) as main lines with most often a third supporting stem or branch (Ashirai). It is, with very few rules, more free and light in feeling compared to the previous style. It is however, difficult in its creation of a fresh, surprise- effect minimalism which depends on a good choice of materials that may include exotic flowers.
