WHERE THE HOUSE DWELLS
the important thing isn’t the house where we live, but where, inside us, the house lives.
Mia Couto
there, all is order and beauty. luxury, calm, and pleasure.

WIND-BLOWN HOMES
HOUSE #1
The wind won’t let it. It’s too big… Guimarães Rosa
planting, tending to flowers, curating a collection, a library, a trove of records standing by the window, putting things in place...
silk curtains the wind comes through without asking
Paulo Leminski
HOUSE #2
talking, reading, cooking, being close…
Sometimes
I hear the wind pass;
and just from hearing the wind,
life is already worth living.
Fernando Pessoa

FARMHOUSES
HOUSE #1 to welcome and to share
My house, just as it is,
says who I am and how I wish to be especially when the world out there overwhelms me, so I can return and once again recognize myself in the world.

inside the house, we become where we are a place, almost, where one can rest from being, or be truer.
