Foreword:
Marble grains intertwine, creating the afterbirth of the newborn, that brilliant gold resembling Sarira.

Text:
Alternating light and darkness
have always been the law of the world.
When chaos arises
black and white woven textures appear.
When indecisiveness passes
how can straightforwardness and openness be absent?

Contrasting colors in the shared spaces
are at once quiet and resounding,
spreading, fragmenting, influencing thoughts and communicating imagery.
Warm skylight enters the house, leaving spots of refined gold,
its brilliance coming from life’s repeated baptism,
condescending yet harmonious
faintly exuding the zen energy of an old monk
a strong force concentrated on one point.

In a corner of the living room
thick wooden panels envelope the secret study
like a comfortable resting larva before transforming into a butterfly.
Continuing the use of black/white, dark wood tones,
limited space coupled with a single window,
absolute security and sheltered independence,
this little cage within a large living space
has the power to heal a heart that’s been alienated and eroded by loneliness.

In the bedroom
warm wood and clean lines serve as foundation,
like sautéed fresh vegetables simply seasoned,
beneficial to a good night’s rest
and for one to awaken naturally in the sweet morning after.
