During the Preliminary portion of designing Komorebi wellness spa, It was very evident that I wanted to include my favorite hobby which is to be outside. Nature has become the place that grounds me and allows me to escape the chaos and stress of university. The power that comes from being connected to the natural world has inspired my design choices.
Seasonal depression is an ongoing concern in our society and living in Calgary with its long winters and unpredictable weather patterns makes daily life challenging. The Komorebi Wellness spa offers everyone an escape into relaxation through the use of natural design elements, to find healing in a calm and serene environment.
