Wabi Sabi

Wabi sabi is a Japanese design concept. It means beauty in that which is temporary or imperfect. 'Wabi' is said to be defined as 'understated elegance' with a focus on a less-is-more mentality. 'Sabi' is translated to 'taking pleasure in the imperfect.'

Mike Sturm writes:

Embracing wabi-sabi is as easy (or as difficult) as understanding and accepting yourself — imperfections and all. It’s about being compassionate with yourself as you are, and building on whatever that is — not feverishly trying to rebuild yourself in order to pose as something else entirely.

Wabi sabi gives you permission to be yourself. We believe this is a key component of connection, the goal of culture and a wonderful way of life. We are all a work in progress.

This website is a work in progress. In this ever changing world, this website is imperfect. It is simple. We believe it is understated elegance. It is ever changing. If you notice this, we know it is different form many other sites out there. We believe it is authentically us, it is beautifully human and it is our way of growing with you.
