01/Who you are

A reading.

You move first and think second. You like company. You find empty rooms slightly suspicious. You learn through your body. Given the choice, you would rather be outside than inside. If you have to be inside, you want it to feel like outside. Your nervous system is calmed by width and contact. Wide spaces. Long sightlines. Doors that open all the way. Tactile contrast under your hand. The body needs to register where it is. Confined, sealed rooms make you restless.

02/The space that heals you

Six ingredients.

  • 01Wide footprint. Generous circulation. Few interior doors.
  • 02Continuous indoor-outdoor flow. The terrace is a room.
  • 03Strong tactile materials. Board-formed concrete, rough stone, white oak.
  • 04A central kitchen as the social anchor.
  • 05Multiple gathering points. Indoor and outdoor.
  • 06Outdoor rooms (terrace, fire pit) treated with the same care as interior.
