“Most modern homes are just beautiful cages. I want to create a healthy home that considers light, relationships and movement.”
Redefining the House
Unlike most home designers who move rooms around like a jigsaw puzzle, we design our homes in 3D, creating spaces that allow the family to connect and interact in new and different ways.
Health
We believe the saying “use it or lose it”. We focus on creating designs that stimulate both the body, mind ad spirit to help keep our energy balanced.
Teamwork
We encourage clients to take ownership of the design process by establishing a deep relationship that allows them to be open enough to discover their innermost desires and to them explore how to make these become a reality in the final design.
Construction
We build homes with quality materials and select builders we can trust for their uncompromising craftsmanship. We place a strong emphasis on designing the house to be earthquake proof as well as earth-friendly.
