By Mary Minas
A new era in connection and care
Sensory Worlds
Mary Minas is the Founder and Creative Director of Communal Bodies, a company developing communal environments for social connection, regulation, and restoration — spanning bathhouses, recovery spaces, and future models for collective care.
Insights
This is a place to explore the cultural shifts reshaping how we live, feel, rest, and connect. From food as brand theatre to cinematic retro-futurism in design, we investigate new frontiers in sensorial storytelling.
Work
Much of Mary’s past work is anchored in water. From bathhouses to retreat spaces, she has designed environments that soothe the nervous system, invite presence, and transcend trend. Each image is a trace of experience—spaces crafted to be felt.
Designing what’s next starts with a conversation.
