Homes That Heal
The Haven Homes project is an experiment in socially beneficial architecture that so far has resulted in the construction of two trauma recovery housing facilities for women:
Haven House
A safe, relaxing group home for women undergoing partial hospitalization or intensive outpatient trauma therapy. Designed for health, harmony, and happiness with emphases on natural materials, art immersion, and animal companionship.
Cloud Nine Studios
Small, quiet apartments with nearly all the features of a full home, sized for a single individual. Designed especially for long-term healing from serious trauma for women who wish to live on their own or with 1-3 cats.
Trauma-Informed Design
Therapeutic Beauty
Architecture for Animals
Below are some of the animal-friendly features developed through this project, which are available at Haven House or Cloud Nine Studios:
