There is a legend that says that the time when the condor and the eagle will fly together will come. A time of integration, where north and south, technology and tradition, rural and urban, young and old, will work together towards building a new world. A time where polarities merge towards higher systems. This time has come to us. Working with Springhouse towards designing the learning ecosystem we dream for this Colombian mountains is an expression of this legend. A cross-cultural collaboration towards building learning communities that provide environments for life to flourish. Springhouse is a manifestation of what we have imagined, providing inspiration and concrete resources to materialize what we have dreamt.

Sourced Design Network
The Sourced Design Network is for those committed to building regenerative culture by creating vitality-centered education. It is for those who place, or are willing to place, vitality at the center of their personal and collective designs.
This Network is vitality-centered and is committed to the following practices; beginning with the self, and widening out into community and place:
- Take care of vulnerability
- Cultivate personhood
- Build beloved community
- Respect the wisdom of the Earth
- Love and serve others.
Arundhati Roy writes “A new world is possible, she is on her way.” This Network of people committed to the awakening of vitality is proof of that.
