The Spiral Sanctuary

Vision

My vision for the Spiral Sanctuary — a house and a piece of land in Andalusia, built on the same grammar as everything else I do. First and foremost a home.

This recording was written for me, and for a while it was the most private thing I had. It is the Sanctuary the way I see it before it has a form — the paths that lead you in, the water that runs through it, the layers you pass on the way to the centre, and the way the centre is empty. Z isn’t a temple people admire. It’s the clearing the home grew around.

I am sharing it because this is how the Spiral actually works: the vision is held long before the details are visible, and it is held from the still point, not from the plan. The house will come, in whatever form the land allows. The form is free. What you hear here is the axis it will grow around — and if you listen, you may notice that it is not only about a house.

The land is in Andalusia. That is as precise as this page will ever be.
