Description
Hello! We are a big family. We are dealing with our children and all kinds of eco activities: my partner as a wood artisan and bio architecture professional and myself as natural remedy seeker-user. We live in Hungary in a little hilly town on a lakeside, called Kustánszeg. Thanks to the children we learn by experience the teachings of nature and life. We believe in life’s beauty, complexity and creative forces. We use these qualities as mainstream in our projects.

A pleasure to meet someone like Sabine: very kind and adaptive personality from the first minutes (and before:)). We had some projects e.g. inside wall rep with mud. Sabine was open and eager to learn about it and did with success what was needed. She is very flexible towards work and family situations. Thanks to her we could have a very nice 5… read more
