Meet Wren Loucks, a designer who 'creates spaces that stimulate wellbeing and purpose'. The interior designer, who is the CEO and Creative Director of Be-Kin, works both physically and spiritually. She joined Editor Hamish Kilburn on DESIGN POD, the design and architecture podcast, to discuss how sensory design became her narrative, and how holistic thinking in design can unlock new opportunities.
Loucks joins the podcast following her involvement in Geberit's Hotel Guest Experience Report, in which Loucks examines ritual, sensory-rich experiences and social sustainability in hotel design. The award-winning designer looks at how the differences in sensorial, cognitive, and physical abilities can be catered to by designing facilities to suit a range of needs, such as wheelchair accessibility, neurodiversity and an ageing population.
This episode of DESIGN POD, brought to you by Hotel Designs, is sponsored by Geberit, produced by Mel Yates and hosted by Hamish Kilburn.
