We all crave a sense of home — not just physically, but emotionally and socially. For expats, nomads, or anyone going through a life shift, that feeling can get complicated. Belonging means feeling connected to people, culture, and your environment.
And sometimes, that has to be intentionally designed.
After years in New York, London, and Miami, I arrived in Costa Rica seeking something simpler — but deeper.
It took time. Connection didn’t happen overnight. But with intention, I found it in the birds at sunrise, the Spanish I’m still learning, and the neighbors who welcomed me.
Now I help others design that same feeling — no matter where they are in the world.
I craft intentional spaces where you feel safe, supported, and truly at home — even in a new place. Spaces that reflect who you are and support who you're becoming.
Support for embracing life in a new country — from legal logistics to emotional transitions — so your new environment feels like home and works for you.
From shared spaces to everyday rituals, I design environments that foster connection, belonging, and authentic interaction.
Architecture grounded in climate, local materials, and the cultural rhythms that make each place feel alive and meaningful.
