My work began with building disaster relief architecture in Japan. For people who had lost everything. The question was always:
How can a building heal?
This is why I design for calm and connection - to nature and each other. Why choosing natural, non-toxic materials matter. Why considering all the human senses matter.
I build with passive, net-zero methods where possible. Recycling wastewater, orienting for fresh airflow and daylighting. Sourcing local materials, labor and building techniques. Considering the home a living, breathing thing - an optimized system.
Environments are instructions the nervous system and body are constantly reading. I offer to write better instructions.
