Artesia presents our newest addition
Oracle House
A TIMELESS SPACE FOR
REFLECTION AND VISION MAPPING
The knowledge, tools and experience have existed for some time now to make not just sustainable communities, but communities that are a joy to be a part of. Sadly the biggest obstacle to implementing these new communities is not the technology or cost, but rather the ironic fact that they are illegal by current building codes and zoning standards. Sustainable Hawaii examines these issues and proposed strategies for changing this situation.My FACEBOOK Family .... vision trainings in hawaii

PROTOTYPING PARADISE MODEL H-15
Holistic life force living with the land
The architect speaks about why there is so much value in a comprehensive look at a fully developed paradise like homestead design.
Like so many other complex systems we design and build again and again, our model of the paradise homestead of the future has required fifteen revisions. Hence H-15. The current model for export as a concept includes the following:
SHORT COURSE IN FRONTIER HOMESTEAD DESIGN
THE NEW FRONTIER OF GREEN HOMESTEADS
There is a classic and yet evolving set of design considerations that apply to the new ways we will decide to live with nature and the numinous. Consider this short list a curriculum if you really want to create a sustainable paradisical place to spend the best part of your life.

New living footprint for self-sufficient farm Ohanas
On slightly more than an two acres of ag land the Arcturus Research and Design Group has proto-typed a small model farm where a land family (ohana) can reside, work the farm, and also work elsewhere to make ends meet. They eat together to save money and also build real family ties which are critical to survival if things get scarce.

NEW TO THE BIG ISLAND? This is your four hour class on how to make yourself ready for the coming earth changes
After living here awhile you will come to realize that people who have lived on this island for several generations have had to dig themselves out of a lot of challenges. Because of that they have built Ohana. They know how to share. They can take a bath in a stream. they can get a cow butchered by a friend. They know who fishes. They know who hunts pig. They have raised chickens. They know where to forage for fruit in the gulches. They know how to cook for five hundred people, while the music plays.
You get yourself ready. Don't wory because they are not at the meetings.

We are closer to paradise
than you know.
Here are ten things that if the world
only knew … would change everything
This is the bridge to the new dawn
and it is already mostly built and you can
help focus on bringing it home
First, if everyone knew the world already is, for all practical purposes, a global civilization that is mostly at peace and united in its cultural aspirations so we don’t have to worry when many of the old governing institutions come down under the weight of their own incompetence.
