Simplicity
Simplicity is our ally. When we think in terms of simplicity, we are considering what is truly useful and necessary, encouraging us to be resource-wise. This can be a highly relative task and applied across a number of scenarios, in our personal and professional lives. However you dice it, cutting down to the essentials often has the effect of enhancing the non-tangilbles, lowering stress and providing clearer pathways within our physical and mental spaces.

the light
We plan the building as a pure mass of shadow then, afterwards, put in light as if we were hollowing out the darkness, as if the light were a new mass wandering in. Daylight has a spiritual quality. When the sun comes up in the morning, absolutely fantastic how it comes up every morning, we are grateful that there is such a thing. Daylight is a trillion times better then artificial light.
many modes
In the light of Reason, a clearing must first be present. This is the clearing of Being, in which the light of reason can throw its light. Reason needs this clearing first, which is to say that reason is subordinate to being. Light can stream into the clearing and allow brightness to play with darkness. However, light does not create the clearing. Other modes enter the clearing: resonance and echo, sound and the diminishing of sound, everything that becomes present and absent. The scientific mode of reason, revealment, truth is not the only mode. The clearing is beyond the light and thus, allows for many modes of perception.
