沉思的冥想能够平静思维，并且提高注意力。这被称为内观，意味着透过事物的外表看到它们的本质，这种冥想非常具有挑战性。关闭声音视线的交流，减少科技的使用，投入大量的精神力量。然而，这也可能是一次深刻的、改变人生的经历。

Silent Meditation Forest Cabins与来自拉脱维亚里加的Brigita和Dima Lukini经营的Ozolini Teamakers合作。凭借多年的草药和制茶知识和经验，这对夫妇在日常生活中创造了草药茶混合物，为城市居民提供服务。近年来，越来越多的人们开始寻找归园田居的桃花源之路，渴望与大自然联系，Ozolini现邀请各界人士通过冥想反思自己的内心，并回归自然。

本次竞赛要求参赛者设计一座适用于森林任何场所的模块式小屋，其主要目的是帮助人们享受沉思冥想，在这里，他们能聆听大自然的声音。沉思冥想小屋只需要容纳一个人，并为其提供基本的生活条件。

获奖作品将有机会进行施工落地，沉思冥想森林小木屋的设计应着重于环保和具有成本效益的建筑技术。由于拉脱维亚曾被认为是欧洲的绿色国家，因此该建筑有可能成为绿色建筑的地方范例。

Silent meditation techniques are used to calm the mind and enhance concentration. Often referred to as Vipassana – which means viewing things just as they are – this type of meditation can be both extremely challenging and rewarding. Retreating from vocal communication, technology, and even eye contact, requires a great deal of commitment and mental strength. However, it can also be a profound and life-changing experience.
The Silent Meditation Forest Cabins is a collaboration with Ozolini Teamakers, run by Brigita and Dima Lukini from Riga, Latvia. Drawing on generations of knowledge and experience with herbs and tea-making, the couple create mixtures of herbal teas for everyday life to offer to city-dwellers. With millennials beginning to find their way back to the countryside and craving a connection to nature, Ozolini is opening its doors to the like-minded individuals who look to reflect on their own experiences through meditation and retreat into the wilderness.
The competition participants are asked to create designs for a cabin that could be replicated in any number of spots throughout the forest. The cabin’s main purpose is to help guests enjoy silent meditation, where the only sounds they would hear would be the sounds of nature. The silent meditation cabins would need to be able to accommodate just a single person, and offer them basic and humble living conditions.
With competition winners being put forward for consideration for construction, designs for the the Silent Meditation Forest Cabins should focus on eco-friendly and cost-effective building techniques. As Latvia has a reputation as one of Europe’s greenest countries, the structure should have the potential to become a regional example of green building practice.
