In a world where fields and context are as important as physical boundaries, the notion of skin as the limit of our bodies is obsolete.

The influence of surroundings on human perception has reached a point where, through Selftropy TM, among others, it is being transformed into a complex method of controlling wellbeing.

And first, there was the "green movement" and biophilic design. They both promote the benefits of reconnecting with nature, a return to older ways of life, gentler ones that maintain the planet's health and implicitly ours. They carry a reactionary set of rules that aim at reducing the damaging effects that the man-made world we live in has.

Reaching beyond skin is only the beginning.
