The Wholesome way of Staying Cosy
It’s like having the best of both worlds right at your fingertips.
On one hand, there’s our deep-rooted need for shelter — shaped by nature and guided by our common sense.
On the other, the power of modern technology — helping us make smarter choices, reduce our environmental impact, and live more consciously every day.
And woven through it all? Beautiful design and sustainable furniture ideas that bring it all together.
Let’s stay healthy and cosy together!
Would you like to have a beautiful cosy home while staying kind to our planet?
A decade after starting my design journey, I’m raising my family in our lovely, healthy eco-home.
The walls are plastered with clay from our garden soil, we have a constant flow of fresh air without the need to open a single window, and instead of turning up the heating once winter sets in, I rather bake a cake to warm up our house.
The scents of herbs and the gorgeous colours of perennial flower beds lurk behind the windows.
This is the life I imagined! Now, let me help you create yours. Are you ready for the ride?
