Description

If planning a remodel seems like a superficial thing to be discussing right now, I want to tell you that I believe it is ANYTHING BUT.  The space we live in defines our experience of life.  Why not help that space be its best so that it can help us in turn.  If you love yourself, you should love your home too. It will love you back!I listened to this interview with architecture critic Sarah Williams Godlhagen this weekend, while walking my pup, and it literally stopped me in my tracks.   It was such a powerful reminder of the many ways that the places where we spend time influence our mood, our focus, and our very happiness. In today's episode you'll hear ...Some Grade-A snarkiness about Mr. Frank Lloyd Wright [2:05]How in more normal times, we "vote with our feet" to choose public spaces that are designed to our liking. Now that we are all stuck at home, we can't leave ... but we CAN make changes for the better [5:10]Why (in my opinion) people strive for the corner office [5:49]A call to arms: you get to design your home for yourself! DO SO! [6:05]The science of how the built-environment (our homes, especially) affects human beings psychologically and physiologically. For real! [9:10]Six design concepts to consider before "finalizing" your remodeling plans. [12:05]That the Ready To Remodel course is coming back, again! Sign up on the waitlist to make sure you get first notice when I open enrollment!
