NATURE’S EMBRACE, asks what it truly means to feel at home—and who home is made for. This project reimagines domestic space as one of shared belonging, where humans and non-humans coexist not through hierarchy, but through mutual accommodation. Set in the redwood forests of Mendocino County, it challenges the divide between built environments and living ecosystems. Animals are not visitors here—they already belong. Through architectural speculation, web-based storytelling, and AI-generated imagery, the project visualizes a future shaped by slowness, reciprocity, and interspecies connection. Rather than separating us from nature, Nature’s Embrace invites us to live more deeply within it—redefining home as a place of openness, care, and coexistence.
