Not only is she excited to create more carbon efficient buildings on this planet,  but she is equally thrilled to help increase the health of the individuals residing within a space by addressing the energetic effects of how a building holds us.  We need more safe spaces so we can flow freely about our daily activities, and in turn bring our best-selves to the table.  Christina believes it is equally important to look at the pragmatic climate concerns as well as the unseen by-products of human subconscious emotion. 

If a building is completely energy efficient and carbon sequestering but it neglects to consider the needs of humans energetics residing within, we are doing both the earth and humans a disservice.

In order to make these big changes, Christina is always circling back to these fundamental questions:

• PASSIVE SOLAR CONSIDERATIONS:
  Can we simply re-orient our buildings so we are maximizing solar gain?

• EMBODIED CARBON:
  Are we using carbon sequestering or recycled materials? 
   

• WASTE MANAGEMENT:
  How can we be creative and take the extra time to use what we already have?
   

• MIXED- USE ZONING:  
  Are we building to create community or to isolate ourselves from one another?

• AFFORDABLE HOUSING:
  How much square ft is too little for each of us?  How much square ft is too much?  

• FENG SHUI & VATSU PRINCIPLES:
  Are we taking human emotion, energetics, and spirituality seriously enough?

Come and help Christina make this world a beautiful example of what humans are capable of!  There is so much good work to do!
