Learn how to design a home for all your senses and create more well-being at home. The aim of this course is to go beyond the visual elements that are emphasised in interior design and create a home that connects you with nature and stimulates all your senses. A biophilic home is not just about style; it's about setting up a space that works with you for your well-being.

In this class, we'll explore the simple yet often overlooked aspects that can really impact how you feel in your home, such as:

The way light impacts your mood and emotions
How to improve the quality of the air you breathe
Managing the noise around you
The importance of the materials and textures you live with
How your kitchen setup influences the quality of your meals

While wall colours and matching curtains might seem like a top priority, they become secondary if poor choices compromise our sensory needs. Thus, I’m inviting you to rethink your design approach and place emphasis where it truly matters - on creating an environment that satiates your senses just as nature intended.

By the end of this course, you'll have plenty of tips on how to create a home that:

Is flooded with natural light
Ensures the air you breathe is pure
Effectively keeps noise at bay
Features an array of natural materials with diverse textures
Encourages and enables the preparation of wholesome meals

Join me in discovering how the science of Biophilic design can unlock a healthier, happier living space. Redefine the relationship between your senses and your surroundings. Start designing not just a home but a lifestyle.

Renters: People living in rented accommodations can also benefit, as many of the tips might be implementable without requiring structural changes.

In sum, it's a class for anyone interested in creating a living space that promotes well-being and connects them more closely with nature.
