Working
on a computer is an unbalanced activity. To top it all this kind of
work is happening in highly artificial environments, often combined
with an unnatural and stressful lifestyle. Besides the fact, that
this is quite unhealthy in the long run, the computer worker looses
the relationship to nature. This is bad for humans and nature.
Especially the one-sided work needs the balance, that nature provides.
To experience this balance is not only beneficial to the human's well
being, but also it creates more awareness for nature. It leads to
the realization, that an intact nature is important. The netBase center
promotes a good relationship between humans and nature. It gives the
opportunity to develop this kind of relation.
The center itself will be build with this spirit. With this spirit
it will be managed, being an example, that economy and ecology can
be married.
It will be constructed in an ecological way. Natural and regenerative
materials will be used (wood, loam, stone). Solar energy is utilized
in an active and passive way. An organic wastewater cleaning system
will reduce pollution a minimum.
The dimensions will be in harmony with nature. No more than eight
guests will stay and work there at the same time. At peak times up
to 16 guests for the day can be there. Thanks to the flexible and
modular construction, single persons, as well as couple and families
can be accommodated comfortably.
Guests will be encouraged not to come with the car, but to take the
train. A shuttle service is available, as well as a car, which can
be shared for local use.
Vegetables and fruits will be organically grown on the property. Working
with computers can be balanced with gardening. Furthermore there will
be a changing offer for improving well being and consciousness. Like
courses in yoga, tai chi, meditation and more - taught by international
experts.
