Called the House of the Forest Owls, this unique cabin in Wolfurt, Austria features many ledges inviting such woodland creatures to make themselves at home. The porch is covered and surrounded by the same design, creating a hollowed outdoor space slightly camouflaged. The interiors’ greatest strength lasts only as far as the grand horizontal window infusing the smallish room with a front seat straight outdoors.

I find a way to fearlessly provoke your senses and take you by the heart to whatever it is I’m writing about. My sweet spot is creative writing, but for the last 20 years I have been providing freelance content for publications on sustainability and green practices, design, architecture, fashion, and non-profit charity. Recently all wrapped up in producing my first book. I have bounced from NYC to Indianapolis, but my true home is a lovely small town in Central Pennsylvania where there’s a legit drive-your-tractor-to-school-day.
