Hidden Haven

Enveloped by the garden’s serene beauty, time slows to a still, the melodic sounds of nature soothing the mind and the sweet air nurturing the soul.

Walking up to the wood door
Knocking the bronze ring handle
A welcoming voice beckons from within

A cup of fragrant tea to savour in the garden
Rain begins to fall like rolling beads of jade
Shimmering on the lotus flower

In the sun-dappled shade and emerald vines
She stands in a moment of solitude
The squirrel’s playful antics brightening her smile

Across the pond’s softly glimmering surface
A ripple, the crisp breeze smelling of fall
A splash, the sun’s rays igniting golden red scales

A creak of the old wooden gate
The ring of wind chimes floats through the quiet
A bird’s sweet song joins from the treetops

As the sun rolls towards its glowing finale
Game pieces slide across the board
A peaceful ritual to welcome evening’s coming

Celebrating Flexform’s Groundpiece sofa,
a treasure from one of Italy’s greatest designers

Feldman Architecture’s Sanctuary house is an oasis of calm in the city.
