a community
of young
creatives building
thoughtfully
crafted
work.
In a society that
encourages distraction
and conventionality, the
appreciation of silence
and simplicity can feel
like a burden.
The goal of this platform is to harbor a safe space for like-minded creatives and entrepreneurs to collaborate and share ideas, and to encourage the pursuit of their work. Those of us who desire to
live our lives quietly and deliberately can gather here, in a community that recognizes and emboldens the quiet creators among us.
Simplicity, implicity, modesty, naturalness, imperfection, and silence. These are the
principles of shibui, and the precepts by which I attempt to live my life. It has taken me a long
time to recognize that this perspective- the quiet perspective- is one that I share with many others. That realization and journey of self-acceptance has allowed me to combine my passions and experiences to create this platform. Guiding others, organizing gatherings, building
meaningful relationships; all of it has come together here, in the quiet creator.

Journal
Silent Living
All of our houses started as our family’s homes, and they’re now open to whoever wants to experience them. They are part of our story and echo the importance of feeling at home. Along the way, we realized that we are not alone in the search for happiness and fulfillment, and thus it felt right to share our values and visions with everyone else – one house at a time. We named this search & sharing process Silent Living, and it has been the most amazing adventure of our lives, so far.
