WE EXPERIENCE THE WORLD CONSUMED BY PROBLEMS, FOCUSED ON ALWAYS RUSHING. OUR MINDS ARE CONSTANTLY BUSY, LEAVING LITTLE ROOM FOR DEEP CONTEMPLATION OR FEELING. DISCONNECTED FROM NATURE’S SMALL DETAILS, WE’RE CAUGHT IN THE FRENZY OF DAILY LIFE.
LIFE MOVES FASTER AND FASTER, AND WE LOSE TRACK OF TIME PLANNING EVERY DETAIL. MEANWHILE, LIFE
ITSELF SLIPS AWAY WHILE WE’RE BUSY MAKING OTHER PLANS.
INSPIRED BY THE WORKS OF CLAUDE MONET, THIS SPACE OFFERS A PROFOUND PAUSE AMIDST
MODERN LIFE. THROUGH IMMERSIVE ART AND NATURAL ELEMENTS, IT INVITES USERS TO DISCONNECT FROM OVERSTIMULATION, GAIN CLARITY, AND RECONNECT WITH THEIR NATURAL AND EMOTIONAL SURROUNDINGS BY MEDITATION. A SANCTUARY DESIGNED FOR INTROSPECTION AND CONSCIOUS CONTEMPLATION.
BOTH ART AND MEDITATION HAVE THE POWER TO CONNECT INDIVIDUALS TO THEIR INNER SELVES AND THE PRESENT MOMENT.

WATERANDTEMPERATURE:
THE FIRST TOUCH OF WATER OFTEN FEELS UNCOMFORTABLE THE BODY SENSES THE TEMPERATURE CHANGE, ADAPTS, AND FINDS BALANCE. THIS MIRRORS HOW WE NAVIGATE TRANSITIONS.
THE MATERIALS IN THIS SPACE REFLECT THIS IDEA. PAUSING TO OBSERVE MAY FEEL UNSETTLING IN A FAST-PACED WORLD, BUT, LIKE WATER, ACCEPTANCE BRINGS CALM. SELECTED MATERIALS EVOKE TRANSFORMATION, INVITING USERS TO EXPERIENCE PHYSICAL SHIFTS THAT MIRROR ADAPTATION AND EVENTUAL COMFORT, THROUGH THE TEMPERATURE OF THE MATERIALS THAT WERE CHOSEN.

HABITAT IS DEFINED AS A SPACE WHERE ONE CAN LIVE. THE
ENTIRE HUMAN RACE STARTS FROM THE SAME LIVING SPACE; IT IS THE SAME REGARDLESS OF YOUR ORIGIN, AND WE ARE ALL
PROVIDED WITH THE SAME, AS IT IS OUR BEGINNING.
PHYSICAL MODEL
OUR CONCEPT BEGINS WITH THE FIRST HABITAT WE HAVE IN OUR LIVES: THE WOMB OF OUR MOTHER, A SPACE WHERE THE CONDITIONS FOR LIVING ARE PERFECT, PROVIDING COMFORT AND COMPLETELY FREE FROM ANY PROBLEMS A PERFECT SPACE OF PEACE. ONCE WE LEAVE IT, WE ARE CONSTANTLY SEEKING PLACES THAT PROVIDE US WITH PEACE TO RETURN TO THAT ORIGINAL SENSE OF COMFORT.
