Spark Values

by

After finishing Ray Dalio’s “Principles” for the second time, I felt compelled to summarize my own principles for Spark. Call it a work in progress!

Spark Values:

When facing a question or decision on whom to hire (or whether to apply to work for us), how to approach a project, or what culture to grow, consider these as some guiding values:

  1. Health: People (including relationships), Projects, Organization, Community, Planet
  2. Clarity (and Authenticity): It takes effort and courage, but is so worth it.
  3. Responsibility: From intrinsic motivation to being fully invested in our projects success.
  4. Learning: Learning,  implementing, evolving.
  5. Excellence: Not perfection

  • Better lives with a smaller footprint.

    We believe that Happy Homes are Healthy Homes in Healthy Communities. While we would love to sell you Happiness in the shape of your dream house, we recognize that true Happiness doesn’t come pre-packaged. In fact, it often seems to require a fair amount of work including that continuous need to find a new balance as life changes.

    As you take a look around, you are surrounded by nature and built places. We made it our goal to support you in your journey by bringing you healthy buildings that serve your varying needs throughout the day and your life, improve the communities we are part of, while minimizing harm to those amazing natural places around us.
