She founded Lisa Tharp Design, an international design firm known for its clean-lined artistic blend of the classic with the modern, a hand-crafted custom furniture line, and industry leadership in design practices that support the wellness of people and our planet.  Lisa is committed to the idea of a healthy house after her own health challenges were traced back to toxic building materials in previous work environments. She has spent over ten years incorporating healthy building principles into her own design work. She partnered with ECOS Paints because they are a leader in non-toxic, eco-friendly, VOC-free paints that are odor-free.
