SELF-CARE & FUNCTION
All good things come from a lot of research. We use our education and experience in psychology and pair it with a strong relationship with the home owners' to help us understand how each family wants and needs to use their home. We then combine it with current research on health and wellness. This design becomes the starting point for collaboration between us and the home owners to create their wellness inspired home.
