QUIET OPULENCE

Is the reason we find wood so restful and want to bring floral patterns into our home  (Scale)because we’ve co-existed with these elements for thousands of years? Are they familiar friends and a part of our basic nature - our DNA? As with the nourishment plants provide to our human bodies when ingested, how could we exist without taking in the visual and tactile stimulation that nature constantly provides?
