“Piecemeal growth is based on the idea of repair rather than replacement; it maintains those place which are working and have adaptive character rather than obliterating the past; it conserves resources rather than consumes.” Stephen Grabow

Can we be satisfied with incremental growth, maintain our enthusiasm and give up our ideas about how much progress we should be making?

Our commitment is to preserve and protect the special places that exist all around us, places that allow us to be free, to be alive, and to be home. We allow for spontaneous adaptation and stand for unpredictable results.  We experiment, we fail, we experiment, we fail, and once in a great while we succeed and a place of beauty and aliveness is allowed to unfold. We encourage and celebrate the participation of all people in this unfolding process.  We are all on a journey of adventure, exploration and discovery.

I know our project does not exist in isolation.  It is not just a building on a street corner in a little town in Indiana.  As we repair the site, we add beauty and bring more life to the world around us, and within us, and the world becomes more alive, more free, and more whole, we come people who belong, people who are free, people who are at home.
