BEFORE (pretty sad looking place)
AFTER (Aaaahhh...much better!)
My client is a therapist and came to me when she was ready to open her own private practice. She was looking for the space to be calm, warm, and a place she could even use for her own meditation. As I designed the office, I kept in mind to stick to neutrals, colors of the beach and colors of a peacock(her favorite), to create the mood we were looking for. These were the color palettes I kept referring back to.
This is the inside cover of an antique book that I framed. The colors worked perfectly with our palette. I also added a little pop of pink to each side of the room, which added a bit of contrast and vibrancy. When decorating a therapy office, you want to stick with neutrals and soothing colors. The small added pops of contrasting color is optional, but I think it gives just the right amount of a boost of energy to the room. You definitely want your clients want your clients to feel calm and relaxed, but you don't want then falling asleep! :)

WHAT'S COMING NEXT?
A new blog post describing the thought process I go through when choosing and positioning each item. You'll also learn how the collaborative process works, seeing how a decorator and therapist work together to create the right experience for their clients. The blog post will include a video interview with the therapist, recorded in her office. Together, we will discuss the process of transforming a room from looking like a DMV waiting room, into a calm space with healing energy.

ReplyDeleteThank you Michelle! Thanks for mentioning the details. My favorite part of decorating is styling. I like to make sure everything looks perfectly imperfect (and balanced of course). It's a bit time-consuming, but well worth the effort!

Working with you is always amazing.
Best of luck to you,
