SCHEMATIC DESIGN
CONCEPT STATEMENT METACOGNATIVE EPIPHANIES
Inspiration for the relationship counseling and creative center comes from a collection of found objects connected to the human spirit. When an object finds you, the conscious self has an opportunity to persuade one’s unconscious thoughts, triggering an emotional connection through the physical object to the natural world.
