I have designed meditation spaces for both individuals and organizations for over 30 years. Please click the links above for examples of both.
Thank you,

Meditation In Your HomeCreating a meditation space in your home is a vote of confidence in your natural wakefulness. It can be as simple as a cushion placed in the corner of your bedroom, or as involved as a separate room devoted to your meditation practice. I have created a variety of contemplative spaces, and would be delighted to help you design a space for meditation in your home: email me at alan@tddseattle.com, or hit the Contact link. Small Home Meditation Space These blueprints show the plan and section of this tiny shrine room. It is a small "left-over" space under the attic roof, measuring just 4' x 9'. You kneel to enter and can stand up only at one end. Yet it is a perfect practice space, with a side window and skylight creating a sense of openness.
The two plans below show a small and large layout for a group meditation space within a house. These are the starting point for a complete set of construction documents. They are also the beginning point for a comprehensive interior design to complement the space.
