meditation spaces
Rooms for stillness
Meditation spaces are areas specifically designated for quiet contemplation, mindfulness practice, or spiritual reflection.
These can range from dedicated rooms in homes or workplaces to purpose-built structures in retreat centers, temples, or public buildings.
The design typically emphasizes simplicity, natural elements, and minimal distraction—soft lighting, cushions or mats, and often symbolic objects relevant to various traditions.
