Elizabeth Diane brought to life Lucid 9 Design as a sustainable home and community-build design studio. Her first projects for Habitat for Humanity and Garden Raised Bounty (GRuB) were deeper green public examples of how we can design beautifully and build in better harmony with the environment while unifying some of the broader community. She is now focused on the education and design of hemp-lime homes and eco-communities. She also is the creatrix of Sacred Geometry Portal, where she has a podcast of the same name and teaches workshops. She is a pianist and sound healer, and has DJ’d and facilitated Mt Shasta Ecstatic Dance for 6 years. Elizabeth’s path is to alchemize her creativity, spirituality and consciousness, a thriving ecology and social wellbeing into a coherent offering intended to benefit all beings she reaches.

With over 30 years working in the fields of sustainable home design, site planning and development, civil engineering, land surveying, and web/graphic design and marketing, Elizabeth offers a unique set of experiences to draw from. She has a Bachelor of Arts with an emphasis in Ecological Design, Green Building Design, Art History and Furniture Design from The Evergreen State College in Olympia, WA.
