PHILOSOPHY:
1. We believe one of the greatest joys in life is the feeling of discovery/seeing with new eyes.
2. We believe in the active study of, and engagement with, our natural and man made surroundings.
3. We believe in walking and biking more, driving less.
4. We believe in art.
5. We believe in the power of place.
6. We believe the more we slow down, the closer we observe, and the more fully we listen—the more we can experience. The more we experience, the more human we become.
7. We believe Austin’s Atlas encourages all of the above.
