Innovative design that inspires a better world and thoughtful lifestyle.
Harka was founded with an inquisitive spirit and lofty objective: to create beautiful and inspiring spaces that possess the lowest carbon footprint possible while empowering their inhabitants to live environmentally responsible and toxin-free lifestyles. Using existing carbon data, toxicology information, and life style analyses, our team makes informed decisions when designing spaces and specifying materials. Our designs are fun, healthy, and attractive while encouraging better and smarter living.
As an added service, we are taking these ideas a step further to develop guidelines to help our clients make more informed decisions about their personal impacts on the planet. Our focus is not what is given up, but what is gained through thoughtful, responsible living and treading lightly on the earth.
OUR MISSION IS TO UPLIFT
WE BELIEVE THAT INNOVATIVE DESIGN HAS THE POWER TO UPLIFT, BY INSPIRING A BETTER WORLD & INFORMING A BETTER LIFE.
Harka is committed to uplifting in all that we do – by leaving everything (from our earth, to our buildings, to our clients’ lives) better than we found it.
