We design with intention, promoting better lifestyles and greater wellness, as well as beauty.
Wellness design and Living in Place are integral parts of our methodology around how to approach designing ideal spaces for our clients. Although some projects include more of those elements than others, every space we design is considered from this perspective based on the clients’ current and future needs and their ultimate goals for their spaces. Our qualifications and expertise in non-aesthetic aspects of design such as light, air, and sound quality; accessibility and daily functionality; safety of materials, etc. lets us design for our clients on a deeper level. To say that putting together spaces that are comfortable, functional, hygienic, and easy to maintain while also being completely stylish and aesthetically pleasing is challenging is an understatement. But with our education, qualifications, and experience, as well as our commitment to putting in the time and hard work it takes, we’re experts at bringing these special spaces to life.
We believe ‘Living in Place’ design is for everyone.
If you were to have a mishap that put you on crutches for six weeks, would you be able to function in your home readily? Taking accessibility and safety into account for a home’s design isn’t just about aging or those with ongoing physical challenges. As a CLIPP certified designer, Julie is an expert at creating homes that account for potential health or mobility issues. Equally an expert in designing beautiful, stylish spaces, she’s adept at ensuring that addressing accessibility and safety doesn’t leave her clients’ homes with even a hint of an institutional look and feel.
We believe wellness based design is for everyone.
Whether you realize it or not, the spaces you occupy impact your wellbeing mentally, emotionally, and physically. That’s why – even for those who aren’t particularly focused on wellness – we consider everything about the designs we create for our clients from a functional standpoint in addition to aesthetics.
And while we don’t make wellness design a major focus of a project unless a client requests it or the project otherwise calls for it, it does come into play in every project in smaller ways. Wellness design can mean anything from maximizing natural lighting, to incorporating natural materials, to optimizing air and sound quality, to bringing in color, and even connecting architecture and nature to the design. A project with a wellness focus would likely incorporate all of those aspects and more, while most of our projects contain a smattering of some of them. Using this approach results in spaces that look beautiful and make our clients feel amazing.
