Tymmera Whitnah is an artist, a dancer, a traveler and a collector of experiences. Her Oregon home lies at the narrowing north end of Eagle Valley in a tiny town called New Bridge. Here she raises llamas, throws pottery in her studio, hosts belly dancing classes and tends to her country home. Even with all these different activities, what distinguishes her property is a glass house, constructed entirely from recycled materials, that is perched on a hill in the backyard.

Whitnah sits for a quiet moment in her spirit house, listening to the low hum of pollinators in the field beyond. “This is a place where I sit and remind myself of my foundational beliefs,” she says. “It’s really peaceful here.”
