Text description provided by the architects. Normally the human mind works like a biological mechanism: when something is missing, we desire it. Desire to taste a dish that our mothers used to cook, desire to be fragrant of the old house that we haven't visited for more than a decade, desire to hear the cricket’s sound that we had abandoned in the past. Desire to see the sunshine playing on the trees in front of the terrace, desire to touch some values that daily life can't even dream of. In the evolution of Sapiens, our history is to stick to nature, stick to the green. Now the city’s life separates us from­ those things. It makes us desire to travel to nature. ... But just travel, is still not enough. That's why many people still like to plant trees and have their own garden to relax with the smell of leaves covering the whole space, with endless surround sound in harmony with the chirping of birds.
