Holistic interior design is for anyone who is interested to take simple action within their personal space. By transforming the space around, you can transform your space within.

This class is an introduction to the process of holistic interior design and how its principles & technical skills can be applied to your personal space.

Holistic interior design can support wellbeing as it serves the many aspects of our human experience. It is a practice of space design that strives for wholeness. The approach considers our emotional connection to space. We focus not only on how a space looks but also how it feels.

During the course we will present our five principles of holistic design, seven technical skills, three demonstrations, and one case study. We share so much of the knowledge we hold from working over the past nine years as professional designers in New York City.

The class project is to take a room in your home or your entire home and apply the principles and techniques of holistic design as presented in the course. The goal is for you to feel empowered to create a home living space that promotes well-being.

Who is this class for? This class is for everyone who is interested in interior design and applying this knowledge to their personal space. No specific software or equipment required. For sourcing any new materials, furniture, or plants, please refer to our Ethical Sourcing Resource List.
