Home Architecture has different levels of potentiality.
Shelter evolved from a simple need for protection: physiological needs + defense. Similar to the bottom of Maslow's Hierachy of Need, 'home' had to do with survival.
But soon, shelter evolved up to the next level of potentiality: aethetics + functionality.
This is where modern architecture sits. We are obsessed with things looking good and working well.
A home that looks beautiful and works well is psychologically satisfying.
However, if you care about being healthy + self-actualized, aesthetics and functionality have little to do with those aspirations.
In fact, most of modern home architecture, even "Pinstagram-worthy" homes, can be laced with toxins and misaligned with you being your best self.
We are focused on "apex architecture": the upper echelon of design that's obsessed with your best life, including the healthiest version of you physically, mentally and emotionally.
It includes the bottom tiers but is so much more.
We're here to support you on your home-creation journey so you can ensure that your dream home is an incubator for your Best Self.
Unfortunately, many architects have not evolved their art past the physiological/functional/aesthetic layers of design,
which is why we are surrounded by toxic built environments that often create barriers to an occupant's flourishing, rather than enhancing their vitality.
The industry that taught them has not yet evolved as a whole to the "Apex Architecture" level.
Plus, an architect will never be the expert on YOU and your personal development. Only you are that expert. And that expertise can't be outsourced to another, which is why you co-designing your home is
so important.
We are here to help you gain clarity on how a healthy home can be built on the foundation of your
Self Actualization.
Embodied Home Design empowers you to co-create your home, along with the experts, in a way that supports both profound wellness and your highest aspirations.
