It is about looking great, feeling great and supporting you to BE great.
The common perception of Interior Design is that it’s purely about enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your home. Indeed, most Interior Designers will transform your house into a stunning space that is not only visually pleasing but also tailored to suit your lifestyle, ensuring that you feel content and proud when others experience it.
But great Interior Design is about so much more than looks, form, and function. It is about looking great, feeling great, and supporting you to be great.
When your space is better, you are better.
When you are better, the world is better.
Sound Familiar?
Homeowners, are you grappling with frustration over your home’s look and feel, striving to achieve harmony, and anxious about costly missteps? Is your space the tranquil haven you yearn for at the end of the day?
Business Owners, are you attracting the clients you desire, and is your revenue a reflection of the value you provide?
Home Sellers, are you currently selling your home, worried it might linger on the market, necessitating repeated price reductions and endless viewings instead of a swift, profitable sale?
The solution to all these challenges lies in the power of great design.
Aligned Design
My philosophy of great Interior Design, which I call Aligned Design, considers three key factors; art, science and energy. The intersection of the three is where the magic happens.
“Art” encapsulates the essence of “Interior Design”. It seamlessly blends furniture, decor, lighting, finishes, color, and architecture to craft spaces that aren’t just visually appealing but also resonate with our way of living.
“Science” elevates this art. It employs the intricacies of color science to accentuate your design’s impact. Beyond aesthetics, colors influence our emotions and ambience. Through color science, we transition your space from appealing to breathtaking. Furthermore, science nudges us towards sustainable and eco-friendly choices, ensuring both personal wellness and planetary care.
“Energy” is the soulful connection weaving through each design element. It’s about introspection – connecting with oneself, one’s history, ambitions, and molding a space that nurtures growth and aspirations. It also involves harmonizing with the inherent energy of your surroundings (akin to Feng Shui) and cherishing nature’s touch (biophilia). This deep-rooted connection, further amplified by tailored energy art, offers an ineffable comfort and tranquility in the design.
Why You Need Art, Science and Energy Together
When you prioritize only two of the three crucial elements, you risk compromising the holistic harmony of your space. Think of it as enjoying a meal but missing a key ingredient; it’s satisfying but not quite complete.
If you focus on “Art” and “Science” (including color dynamics), your space might look stunning and function efficiently, but it might lack the soulful, personal touch and deeper connection that “Energy” can infuse. Overlooking the “energy” aspect could affect your sleep, productivity, and connection to nature. By integrating biophilic elements, you not only connect deeper with nature but also align with your true self, fostering improved well-being, relationships, and positive global impact.
Emphasizing “Art” and “Energy” can create a visually pleasing environment that resonates personally, but without the “Science” of functional design and the proper use of color, it may fall short in practicality and sustainability. Without the scientific understanding of color, a design might miss its full potential. Color, when applied with expertise, elevates a space from appealing to mesmerizing.
Merging “Science” (with its color considerations) and “Energy” can lead to a functional and emotionally connected space, yet it could miss the aesthetic flair and sophistication that “Art” offers. An eco-friendly home with vibrant colors contributes to well-being, but aesthetics and functionality are crucial too. An inspiring and beautiful environment uplifts your mood daily, while a space tailored to your lifestyle enhances comfort and enjoyment.
Simply put, sidelining one component can throw off the balance of your environment. For a truly harmonious and balanced living space, it’s essential to weave together the beauty of “Art”, the practicality and color science of “Science”, and the personal resonance of “Energy”.

Love “It is about looking great, feeling great and supporting you to BE great.” This is a fantstic statementy Mary Ann to not only introduce your philosphy and your post, it also sums up your 3 points for the magic to happen. Great thought provoking post.
Thank you so much for reading and understanding the true meaning of what I was discussing in this post!
I agree. I believe your space should be a reflection of your inner workings. It’s so much more than magazine-worthy design.
I love the way you put that, a “reflection of your inner workings”. Perfect, thanks for reading!
