Finding Sanctuary by Lisa Kahn Designs

“Smile, breathe, and go slowly.”

This quote from How to Live by Thích Nhất Hạnh is one I return to often.
Sometimes, life asks us to move faster than our hearts are ready to. I believe our homes can gently invite us back to ourselves. When they’re filled with natural material, sunlight, and pieces that inspire us, they become more than beautiful.
A home that cares for us in return becomes sanctuary. ❤️‍🩹

In the gentle beginnings of summer, we’re especially drawn to places like this - where light and nature come together so effortlessly. The way this solarium holds the landscape outside creates a sense of calm that feels both expansive and intimate all at once. This is where sanctuary meets the season ☀️

Sanctuary begins with the natural world around us 🕊️🌳

This elegant custom fixture by Louise Gaskill, paired with Paul Montgomery’s beautifully immersive wallpaper, creates a moment where nature and design softly blur the line between indoors and out.
We’re endlessly inspired by the harmony found in the natural world. The symmetry of petals, the rhythm of branches, the quiet balance that makes a space feel grounding and restorative. These subtle echoes of sacred geometry remind us that beauty, peace, and connection are already woven into nature. We just simply bring them home. 🏡
