Holistic well-being is increasingly being valued as we aspire of a time and place to unwind from the over stimulation of day to day life. A place for wellness acknowledges the present moment, creating spaces to restore mind and body. It provides a nurturing setting, giving way to find oneself and interact with new acquaintances. The environment for wellness enables an escape from the pressure of quotidian, either in the form of therapeutic baths and massage, meditation through yoga, or even through food by the act of cooking together and eating healthy. The architect,Steven Holl has been called to design this place for wellness, wellbeing and mindfulness in the mountain-scape of Lonavala.
