The anthropological relationship between humans and nature defines a fundamental basis for the creation of architecture. The necessity to build in the wilderness resulted in a beautiful symbiosis which characterized the origin of architecture at the beginning of civilization. Although nature may be understood now as the antithesis of the built environment, any creation of space requires a clear understanding of the natural surroundings and the enhancement of the possibilities which arise from that fruitful conversation. The wild offers a place of mystery where darkness, shadows and sounds define the field to leave reason behind in favor of our senses. The narrative of western civilization since ancient times has generally called for the necessity to clear the forest and domesticate the wild as a foundational act to define progress. Nevertheless, there is an urgency to look back to nature with respect to heal the scars of industrialization.
