DESIGN & RENOVATIONS

Designing Healing will work with organizations, architects, and interior designers to improve non-traditional spaces of healing through a comprehensive design process built on agency, cultural humility, reflection, trust, and co-creation. Designing Healing offers personalized strategies and aesthetics to meet the needs of corporations, nonprofits, and individuals. The process includes: 

​

​

      ​

Conducting meaningful community focus groups 

​

Creating power maps of stakeholders

​

Integrating burgeoning aesthetics research that contributes to a design's function and its users' psychology 

​

Defining challenges based on people's needs and feelings, the individuals served, the design mission, and overall importance

​

Critically analyzing the renovation space based on movement, sequence, frequency, and activities

​

Understanding an organization's collaborators and their needs, values, interactions, and identity  

​

Prototyping designs and journey mapping

​

Choosing conscientious furniture, wall color, lighting, noise levels, accessibility needs, temperature, layout, access to nature, and scale
