Earth House

The Landscape

Roots in Santa Fe and the enchanted circle of that area, creation of a sanctuary for healing, and using the earth's energy was to be our catalyst. The basic elements of nature hold the powers of life forces. Fire, water and stone are the keys to earth's own healing powers.

Our Solution

The construction of this healing garden allowed us to explore the realm of metaphysical healing and the culture of the Santa Fe region. Situated in an intimate walkout garden setting, we situated the components to follow the solstice and the seasons. Fashioning the Earth House sauna with large Juniper logs as corner supports and roof beams provided the strong foundation to create a partially dug out style structure with a living roof. At the core of the sauna is its true power. A shaft of basalt draws energy from deep within the earth to rejuvenate the soul. The sound and flow of the waterfalls adds to the ambiance when relaxing in the hot tub. The wood burning fire pit completes the cycle of life.
