Often, when designing spaces or approaching a renovation or decoration project, people have the tendency to try and mimic a certain style of design. This approach can work but often leads to a space lacking in depth and interest and particularly these spaces tend to have no clear sense of cohesion and unity. These traits, especially cohesion and unity have a profound impact on long term occupant well-being and ensuring their successful implementation results in a space that can support health and wellness for occupants over the long haul.

Colour is not about picking a colour. At least, not in the context of Interior Design. The function of colour in crafting interior spaces is as much about creating the desired feeling and expression of the existing space it is occupying as much as it is about the beauty of the colour itself. These spaces often have defining elements such as a staircase, a piano or simply the dimensions of the space itself. Choosing a colour is about responding sensitively to these defining elements in order to lift and elevate the existing space with the intention of allowing it to express it's own existing and intrinsic characteristics and ultimately, to perform its function and purpose with ease.

Overall well-being in the interior environment is very much linked to the primal need for both a view to the outside and the safety of a snug corner devoid of prying eyes. It is human. It is instinctual and greatly affects our well-being both mentally and physically in the environments we build for ourselves and those we hold close. These environments often don't adequately reflect our need for this parameter however, there are subtleties within the design of a space that can enhance this evolutionary need and crucially have a very positive affect on our overall health. 

Often overlooked when assembling an interior scheme, the importance of an overall sense of balance - not just in terms of material proportions and their effective use, but also in terms of the physical space occupied by objects on each of the spaces' 6 planes.
