The Sanctuary Effect
On the importance of physical space in an increasingly virtual world.
We are entering a world in which almost everything can happen without being anywhere.
Work, conversation, learning, entertainment, commerce—increasingly, even companionship and creativity—are migrating beyond physical place. Artificial intelligence is accelerating that transformation still further.
And yet we remain physical beings.
What do we continue to need from the physical world that the virtual world cannot provide?
The Sanctuary Effect explores this question through the lens of architecture—examining how space shapes our experience, our identity, and our capacity to connect, create and belong.
