Model Creation

It is important to involve future users as much as possible in the design process. When working on the model, relationships emerge that cannot be fully comprehended on paper alone. Working with clay in modeling creates a certain calm and focused atmosphere.

Geomancy

Together with the owner we approached the plot from the start with internal humility and respect. When the owner bought the land, we made a celebration of defining the place. We walked along the plot, dispersing salt on the border and sprinkling it with water. The elementary consciousness connects with the new owner this way. Salt cleans subtle energy and through its fine crystals it connects the place with the consciousness of helpful elemental beings. Water connects the spirit of the place with the spirit of man. After the construction of the house started, there was a celebration of the laying of the foundation stone. During the laying celebratory verses were recited for the place, and thanks to all beings associated with the place were expressed. The wish of the owners about what they want to experience in the house was pronounced. Any such ritual is a very private and personal matter. It is a salutary act, building intimate union of man with the soul of the land and the house.
