Earth is the ancestral magnet that unites all living and non living beings. To be in contact with Earth as foundational matter – be it in the form of soil, stone, sand or grass – means regaining that primal, innate affinity with the planet that hosts us.
Because its energy is associated to feelings of safety and comfort, as well as deep understanding with the other and reconciliation, Earth’s presence in house building is an integral aspect to restore balance in contemporary living contexts.
Allowing enough space for Earth to breathe both inside and outside the house revitalizes our senses, opening up new possibilities to revel in the beauty of simplicity.
