| About | A threshold is a strip of wood or stone that lines the flooring along a doorway, and is crossed upon entering a space. Beyond its physical function, a threshold symbolizes the relationships between spaces and the activities they contain. More than the logical boundary between spaces, there is a sensibility towards visible thresholds of the house - that underline the relationships within the people in the house, or the relationship with activities in one room to the next. Designed space is the physical embodiment of our society’s perspective of human relationships. Similar to a threshold, it negotiates the quality and articulation of different spaces to each other, and defines the relationships that describe our way of life. How we open doors, how closed, or locked, or free, or light they are, speaks to how we envision our relationship with what’s on the other side—nature, others, and even the unknown dimensions of ourselves. |
