Our Philosophy
We shape our spaces, and our spaces shape us.
We shape our spaces, and our spaces shape us.
All of the products within our collection and used within our designs are made from recycled, reclaimed, or natural materials.
We believe in allocating the resources we generate to shared human flourishing by supporting organizations that feed, house, and empower people worldwide.
Atelier Harmoni's core mission is to build a more nourishing world through evoking beauty and the conditions for joy and wellbeing.
We believe that environment shapes the emotional and spiritual fabric of our lives—and that when we enter into a reciprocal relationship with the spaces we inhabit, those spaces have the capacity to nourish, restore, and transform us.
As creative beings, we are responsible for cultivating the conditions that support our highest flourishing. At Atelier Harmoni, we know that work begins with the intentional design of the environments through which we move each day. This is the foundation of our approach to the art of Sacred Life Design™—a philosophy and way of life that moves beyond the look and feel of space, and crosses into the territory of how we choose move through it and be in relationship with it.
It is our privilege to offer this philosophy and its application in service to spaces that support deeper wellbeing, greater beauty, and a more harmonious relationship with life itself.
In addition to the natural world, our founder has drawn inspiration from a wide range of artists, designers, and creators.
After visiting and studying natural building techniques at Jacki and Rob Roy's Earthwood school, the foundational principles of Atelier Harmoni and the aesthetic of the Earth Cottage™ ecosystem first began to take shape. Our original design ecosystem was further inspired by on-going intellectual and artistic collaboration with feminist ceramicist Ania Ksiezyc, who is known for her contributions to Earth goddess reverence. The contrast of her raw, primal art placed within a stunning story book cottage built by musicians Jim and Diane McDowell has defined the visual identity and philosophical direction of the Earth Cottage™ ecosystem.
Additional feminine archetypes and design ecosystems have emerged from deeper communion with these energies and contemplations, including Modern Earth™, influenced by Mater's cutting edge design ethos and technology and metalsmith artist Collin Blackmore's blending of industrial materials and emotional expression.
The Sacred River™ ecosystem emerged from our founder's own study of feminine psychology, shadow work, and providing editorial support on a philosophically rigorous project with a world renown shaman—it is the archetype through which her personal artistic inspiration flows.
To be nourished is inseparable from the act of nourishing.
