I have been designing environmentally friendly interiors for over 15 years (pre-the-green-hoopla), one of the vital services I offer is getting my clients to connect to their homes: both their immediate space (and self) and the larger environment, our planet.

I refer to what I do as mindful design or conscious design because it goes well beyond ‘green’. VITAL DESIGN includes all economic levels, all styles and does not have any eco guilt attached. It is all about coming from a place of love (I refer to it as the stevie wonder of home design). I believe the most successful spaces express the inhabitant’s personality (not the designers), and I act as a conduit to help one feel confident in his or her ability to create a unique expression of themselves in their home. The result is always a beautiful, safe, non-toxic, happy and healthy environment that lifts the spirit, similar to a stevie wonder song!

Our ultimate goal is to create a haven and sanctuary (again, both inner and outer), which begins when one honors oneself, and one another, inclusive of all religions and cultures.

We have all experienced spaces that made our hearts soar, why shouldn’t your home be one of them? In this blog I will engage you in a dialog with your home, and help you look at your home in a wonderful new light. Whether you’ve been wed to the same space for eons or this is a brand new relationship, there are many wonderful ways to transform the mundane into the magical - I look forward to sharing easy, tried and true home enlightening tips. Please do try this at home…. 

Yours in service for a green, non-violent and happy planet,
