"How does the living space impact my client's daily life and mental health?" Interior Designers must ask this question before designing spaces for their clients.
In today's episode, I talk about the psychology of design and environmental psychology, and its profound impact on interior design. As I unravel Maslow's hierarchy of needs, I explore how shelter is a fundamental need that transcends into homes that foster safety, love, self-esteem, and self-actualization.
I also share a challenging year of living through a home renovation that affected my psyche and mental health.
So this episode doesn't just uncover the challenges; it serves as a guide, offering resources, including TED talks and a recommended textbook, to aid in understanding the psychology of design and environmental psychology.
Whether you are a seasoned designer or just starting in the creative field, awareness of the psychology of the environment is crucial to creating mindful spaces for your clients.
Don't forget to check out the show notes for valuable resources and together let's start transforming spaces with purpose, beauty, and inspiration!
