Holistic Interior Design

Holistic Interior Design considers the whole story including the environment the inhabitants and wellbeing in the home. It is a multidisciplinary interior design field incorporating traditional interior design with holistic disciplines to create spaces that engage with you at a core level.

At Orb Design we create interiors that not only look good and feel good but also support your physical, mental and emotional wellbeing.


How Can Holistic Interior Design Help?

Are you looking for a fresh take on decorating your favourite space in your home?

Orb Design offers a bespoke holistic Interior Design service to residential and commercial clients incorporating both traditional interior design and holistic disciplines such as Feng Shui and Colour Psychology. This style of interior design takes into account the physical, emotional, psychological and energetic aspects of each area and the impact this has on the occupants.

We not only take into account form, function, practicality and aesthetics, but also offer solutions and recommendations to enhance and support your health and wellbeing.

One of the most appealing features of this type of interior design is its focus on creating an environment that positively impacts all aspects of your life and the immediate and long lasting benefits that are derived from it.

We help you to connect to your home and optimise your space with intentional design so that it becomes uplifting, supporting and nurturing, allowing every area of your life to flow!

 

The Holistic Disciplines

 

Colour Psychology

Colour Psychology is the effects of the electro-magnetic radiation of light on human mood and behaviour. Colour is energy and the physical effect it has on us has been proved time and again.

At Orb Design, we use Colour Psychology through the Colour Affects System to inform the design process. We assess your seasonal colour personality type and apply this knowledge to offer tailored colour palettes, patterns, textures etc, that support, uplift and energise.


Feng Shui

Feng Shui Bagua Chart

Feng Shui is a complex system that is approx 6000 years old. It enables us to understand and influence the existing fixed and cyclical energies in our environment. This system is used to achieve specific life improvements and is achieved by working in harmony with the principles of natural energy flow.

We use Feng Shui to create a unique and tailored energy map of your home. This is used to inform the design process to optimise your home in the four principal aspects of your life: Success, Relationships, Health and Wisdom.


Biophilia

Biophilia is more than a love of nature, it is the human instinctual need to seek connection with nature and all living beings. It has been shown to enhance our mental and physical health, and help us reach our optimum potential.


Building Biology

Building biology is a science that investigates the health hazards in the built environment. This includes the use of chemicals in building materials, allergens, mould and electromagnetic fields.

At Orb Design we incorporate elements of Building Biology and collaborate with accredited Building Biologists. Understanding the health impact of a home and the steps for remediation are necessary, such as when a home has been impacted by flood or water damage.


“When we dwell in a space that is thoughtfully arranged and filled with objects, furniture and imagery that are meaningful, we subconsciously orient ourselves from a place of more purposeful intention.”
