FAQ
Questions before changing the space
Does a Lowfire space need to look empty?+
No. The goal is not emptiness; it is fewer interruptions, clearer object roles, and a room that gives attention somewhere to rest.
What should I change first?+
Start with one visible surface, one sensory anchor, and one repeated object placement before buying anything new.
