From the moment I stepped onto the property, I knew it was a place in which my soul could thrive. As I explored the grounds, I came across a tree that had grown into the very foundation of the building. It was like finding out you're related to royalty. But as I got closer to inspect this wondrous structure, I realized that there were other trees doing the same thing—and not just in my imagination. The whole area was literally crawling with roots. So what does it mean when nature and architecture come together? It means that our built environment is not only beautiful, but also capable of supporting life from below ground up!
