THE NEW CENTRE AS WE SEE IT The centre is located in a quiet and natural setting, where residents and visitors can flourish in the best possible atmosphere. The centre will not be limited to one building. With regard to quietness and contemplation more than one building will be appropriate. When the conditions are not yet existing, new constructions should be possible on the plot. Several houses and smaller apartments exist on the plot, preferably each with an independent entrance and open to the garden on the ground floor.
Ateliers will be determined for different forms of art. Spaces for therapies are located at the quiet corners of the centre. Rooms for guests are furnished – just like the other units – with a kitchen and sanitary facilities. A hall with grand piano and a library with spiritual, historical and other books,will make everything complete. It is important for us, that books are available, in which one still can find the truly spiritual and scientific works. For the reunions a kitchen with adjacent dining room is available.
THE BUILDING PHASES Eventually an existing centre can be taken over. Another possibility would be to obtain a plot next to an already existing anthroposophical initiative (for example a biodynamic farm). For this initiative an estate, a farm, a hotel, a monastery or school could be just as eligible. The centre will be in Switzerland. Just like in the past, we plan to obtain a plot with a big potential. The new project will have a large ground and buildings with sufficient possibilities for extension. The complete potential can be developed in phases. This whole process can take years. The first step is to make a house fit for habitation. The habitation units will at first be prepared with a kitchen and bathroom. A cost saving concept for the installation and maintenance costs will be chosen. The participating residents will be given the possibility to do the renovation work themselves.
THE PARTICIPANTS The participants support wholeheartedly the ideals and are fully willing to co-operate.
FINANCING The acquisition will be in the first place financed from our own means. Please contact us for further financial discussions. Fundraising and sponsoring offer additional possibilites
