Living

1/ Beyond the Horizon

Embrace curved walls and cave-like architecture to optimize space and energy efficiency. Curved walls provide natural insulation and promote airflow circulation, reducing the need for artificial heating and cooling systems. They also create a sense of comfort and safety. 

Make the most of natural light, strategically positioning windows, skylights, and light wells to minimize the need for artificial lighting. 

Focus on ecological designs that prioritize materials that do not require mining or extensive processing. 

Less possesions and clutter, a more focussed approach. Encorporate built-in furniture such as beds, couches, and storage solutions to optimize space and minimize the need for additional furnishings.

2/ Roots of Renwal

Gathering around fire is a timeless ritual that draws us closer together. 

Lo-fab design combines simplicity and a respect for nature, celebrating imperfection and the raw beauty of materials.

Harnessing natural light is an act of alignment with the seasons and time, optimizing energy use and cultivating connection to both nature and the inner self.

Heavy textiles such as woven tapestries, add tactile elements and visual depth. Their weight and texture speak to the enduring quality of handmade artistry.

By embracing slow living, people are not hurrying through tasks, but engaging with them fully. Cooking becomes a ritual, reading opens doors to new ideas.

3/ A New Kind of Freedom

Simple but friendly, a home should be filled with artefacts that people truly love, creating warmth and individuality.

Fantastical elements and prints connected to traditional techniques and shapes to create a disassociation.

A space may feel both ancient and futuristic, rigid yet fluid, warm yet detached.

A dream-like atmosphere emerges through soft lighting, layered textures, and unexpected material combinations.

Blurring the line between realism and dreamlike fantasy and evocative cinematography to set the atmosphere.

It invites reflection, making a space more than just functional, it becomes an experience, a place that tells a fragmented yet compelling story.

4/ The Power of One

The flexible shaping of spaces reflects the fluidity of freedom, where each room offers a sense of openness, possibility, and unrestricted movement.

Living conciously is being more aware of our senses, the textures and sounds around us work together to create a tactile connection with the environment around us.

Augmented design goes beyond the physical, enhancing spaces with elements that blend reality and imagination.

Textured surfaces evoke a richness, inviting both touch and visual engagement. 

Tech-infused furniture with health-monitoring sensors. Real-time data to control a room’s environment, such as temperature or air quality.
