human spaces

​

It is in the spaces of our buildings that the human body has the opportunity to engage all the senses and reflect on our condition.

​

The human ideal is one that transcends the simple concept of home as a place that simply fulfils a fundamental the physical needs of protection, warmth and sustenance. Being human demands we also satisfy our sentient and emotional wellbeing - tactility, beauty, a sense of belonging, of purpose, heart and spirituality.

 

Over the years we have developed the practices and processes necessary to guide you towards crafting your home. It consists of multiple modalities and understandings - passive solar, sustainability, design, construction and space sculpting.

 

human spaces requires human collaboration and the time to craft the space based on this collaboration.

​

So enjoy the journey, as time and space are your allies in the art of  'human spaces' Architecture.
