Forest Floor is a space to explore ideas about place and the built environment

“Place is a center of meaning constructed by experience. Place is known not only through the eyes and mind but also through the more passive and direct modes of experience, which resist objectification. To know a place fully means both to understand it in an abstract way and to know it as one person knows another. At a high theoretical level, places are points in a spatial system. At the opposite extreme, they are strong visceral feelings”

“Once we reconnect with those who understand what it means to be from a place, we can start showing people how to treat the world.”
