Time is limited, so where it's spent should be significant. Space can be a form of care, calming to the mind and body. The way light enters the atmosphere, then the building, makes a difference.
Design is difficult. It requires listening, observation, feeling. I am intuitive; I feel for others and seek to practice with compassion--empathy. So I strive to create spaces that convey beauty, human dignity.
Simplicity becomes an ethos: a frame for seeing nature's constantly changing conditions. The light upon the ocean, diffuse in May, or glistening in the leaves at midday. Reflecting on the surface. The feeling of the breeze.
Designed to endure — increasing one's awareness of the site over time, bringing closer contact with beauty in everyday life.
Architecture should be moving.
