Wellness design was emerging as a trend before the pandemic.

  • What it can do to enhance your home and life
  • For designers it gives you a framework for discussing it with your clients.
  • For consumers it gives you criteria to prioritize your investments.

The pandemic has made these items more urgent than ever.
