Even the basement feels alive, pleasant, soothing, and not like being below but above ground. There is no feeling of being in a cellar at all; on the contrary: We use this floor for other purposes, but I could live here comfortably. If it were a normal concrete box, it would drag you down.

It took me a long time to realize that natural stones – not just precious stones – have life around them. Not like plants, animals and humans with metabolism, but still a radiance with life. It’s the same with Pneumatit; it has a similarly lively aura as natural stone. In certain places, especially in a narrow corridor leading to the technical rooms, the energy becomes incredibly strong. Every time I pass through here my heart opens up.
