SACRED GEOMETRY
Having lived and worked on the island of Ibiza under its unique magic for more than 30 years, I have learned more and more that certain shapes, materials and proportions have specific effects on the spaces I design. After these experiences I started with the Fibonacci numbers and the golden section, Indian Vastu and Chinese Feng Shui, geomancy and sacred geometry, those cosmic numerical ratios that the Egyptians used to align their pyramids with – just to mention a few aspects – to work.
This is where my approach to “natural design” came from.
As Frank Lloyd Wright said:
A good building is not one that hurts the landscape, but one that
that makes the landscape more beautiful than it was before the building was erected.
I would even go further here, the object should ultimately improve the environment through its existence and make a positive contribution, such as producing energy and not consuming it and sharing it with the community.
