No door is just that, it is a declaration of both welcome and security. Through renovation, thresholds are designed into a great framing trust.
The First Gesture
A door sets the tone. Its mass, substance and auditory sensation during the closing convey safety or delicateness. A vigorous but beautiful door promises: Here you are safe.
Likert Scale of Openness and Closure.
At the entry points, the protective purpose will be balanced with an invitation to enter with no fear by transparent panels, soft finishes, or warm lighting.
Cultural, Emotional Direction.
In all cultures, doors have a symbolic value: the boundary between the world of the public and the world of the private, of danger and of safety. Any renovations that commemorate this connotation render doorways practical and ritualistic.
Human Experience
It must feel like entering the safe place when crossing a door. Carefully created thresholds turn the process of entering into the one of trust, belonging, and reassurance.
