The Psychology of Space. DISCOVER THE TRANSFORMATIVE POWER
Emotional Impact:
Where WellBeing Meets Design
Thoughtful interior design has the power of creating a fulfilling and grounding space that nourishes your soul is to ask yourself: ”What feeling do I want to inspire in those who live in or visit my home?” Do you want to feel expansion or freedom? Do you resonate with creativity, originality, and experimentation? What about intimacy and legacy? This is why designing a home is a highly personal and unique affair, individual to each homeowner.
Each of these emotional vistas can be translated to your home through meticulously curated details surrounding proportions, light, texture and function, resulting in multi-dimensional rooms and interior spaces that inspire and are soul nourishing. No longer a blank canvas bereft of aesthetics and function.
Colour Psychology
IGNITE YOUR SENSES
For airy feeling of openness, freedom, and expansion, then elegantly understated light hues are your best bet. These lighter colours invite energy, luxury, and newness, making them a perfect, versatile colour range that will find its place in any room of your home. With the transformative power to amplify the height of your ceilings and expand the impact of your windows, creating the illusion of a much larger, freer space.
Meanwhile, mid-tones are perfect for adding warmth and personality without crossing into bold statements. These colours offer a gentle, romantic air to your space while offering a grounding peace. Mid-tones are perfect for bedrooms, bathrooms, and cosy, relaxing spaces.
Design That Promotes Healthy Living
Air Quality and Natural Light
HEALTHY LIVING THAT PROMOTES LONGEVITY
With most of us spending nearly 90% of your time indoors, designing a home for healthy living and longevity is essential. Your lighting, air quality and plenty of natural light goes hand in hand when curating a harmonious home.
It’s essential to intentionally plan your space in harmony with the sun’s natural light and utilise its direction as it travels the room. Which is imperative for a balanced mood, concentration, and restorative sleep, whilst providing the feast for your eyes.
The direction your windows faces can significantly impact the balance and feel of your space, how you perceive colours and wall paint in the room. This will subtly change as the day moves from the dawn to bright afternoon and red evening. Meticulously detailed design will ensure the room’s story won’t get lost throughout the day.
The materials you use, from textiles to paint selections, can significantly impact your home’s air quality. Ethically sourced fabrics, low VOC paint and lacquers will promote clean air and long-term wellbeing for your home and family.
ERGONOMIC DESIGN
the fusion of craftsmanship and function
Ergonomic interior design focuses on creating well-organised, efficient spaces with comfortable furniture designed to reduce strain and improve posture. Prioritise balancing comfort with designer silhouettes in your furniture, and carefully create clear walkways and space seating to avoid eye-straining that could clutter you mind.
Mixing bulkier pieces with slimmer silhouettes, cushions contrasting hard finishes, and imposing grandeur mixed with inviting comfort will also create multi-dimensional and layered spaces.

PRIVATE VS. COMMUNAL
personalisED spaces for a
sense
of comfort and security

Sensory Experience in Interior Design. Visually A Feast for ALL Senses
Textures and Materials:
enrich your life with
every glance and touch
With a power of elevating the comfort, luxe feeling or extenuate a piece of a furniture. But texture isn’t just about touch as it satisfies cravings for variety of our minds and eyes, as it offers a multi-dimensional experience through every glance. Subtly or boldly contrasting textures, playing smooth metal or glass finishes off wool upholstery against velvet curtains.
The outcome is an emotional journey that nourishes your soul and your eye follows naturally as it passes the space– isn’t that a blissful thought?
Sound and Lighting:
mixology of methodologies
for wellbeing indoors
The choice of materials can dramatically improve the noice absorption from outside or from indoor activities and therefore promote a sense of grounding and calmness within your home. In large open plan spaces, acoustic zoning within large open plan space through room dividers, intentional furniture and highly noise absorptive materials can help dispersing the noice pollution indoors.
That is where natural and man-made materials as wallpapers, Krion and likes perform best. Whilst steel, stone and glass are sound bouncing that can be softened by the combination with sound absorbing soft-furnishings.
“Study nature, love nature, stay close to nature.
It will never fail you.”
