Wellness focused architecture and interior design, focus on all aspect of traditional design, such as functionality and aesthetics. Wellness focused brings another element into the design principles and that is the wellbeing  or the wellness of the occupants and the environment.  These additional elements are slowly being introduced into more traditional practices, however, it is still not as common as we would like it to be. When considering a construction or a renovation project, look for non-toxic building materials which can make your living spaces more pleasant, comfortable and better for you.

Use natural materials - Most part natural materials which haven’t been considerably processed are going to be the better non-toxic option for your life spaces ( homes ).   

Remember: Coatings processing chemicals, glues and adhesives can all release toxic chemicals. 

Eco-friendly materials will have a minimal environmental impact. A great place to start is with recycling materials, as they always cause less impact than new materials. You might want to use renewable resources to reduce your environmental impact when building or renovating.

Below is a list of construction materials which  are not only environmentally friendly or have less impact on the environment, but are also considered less toxic therefore  healthier options to use in construction 

Wood - try to use reclaimed FSC or recycled wood. These woods are perfectly safe to use and are usually in great condition. Use low -formaldehyde Plywood and Wood products 

Bamboo ( frame structure, flooring, furniture 

Cork ( flooring furniture )

Hemp ( hempcrete )

Straw ( insulations )

Coconut Fibre, Sisal  ( insulation, coconut-rete  textiles, rugs carpets, 

Clay, Lime, Earth ( building construction,  walls, plaster sealers) 

Natural Bricks, Mud Bricks, Cob ( when using this material in construction please do some good solid research on your local building codes, You may want to consider Hybrid materials)  

Stone ( building construction )  

Linoleum  ( flooring)

Cotton, Linen ( textiles )

Sheep's wool ( insulation, textile  )

 New innovations

Clutter in your home is an opportunity for confusion, disharmony and blockages to emerge in your home. Decluttering can be one of the quickest ways of creating a  home of wellness. Where there is clutter you are stopping natural energy flowing through your home and creating blockages and stagnate energy. It is also confusing to the eye, therefore, the mind.

Having things in your home that serve you no purpose is a waste of vital space and creates the mindset of storing things you don't need or even want, which can also have you looking back in life instead of forwards.

Keeping things in your home that do not work or do not work as well as they should do,  is an invitation for more things to not work in your life space ( home ) or your life in general.  Your life space is a reflection of you and you are a reflection of your life space. There is no real way of getting around that fact. We create the environments we live in based on what we want to be or what we are

So if you look around you and all you see is clutter, mess, disorder and things that serve you no real purpose what so ever, ask yourself what is going on within your being that is reflecting in your life space.

Wellness Focused Bathroom design : Fixtures and fitting

It was not that long along ago bathroom design consisted of a basin, piping. which was hidden by some sort of pedestal you could buy from any retail home store or hardware store, this was pretty much the standard. Fast forward to 2021, things have changed a lot. Now you want something that is going to be modern and maybe, over the top.  In the design I've created I've used quite a dramatic tub, made from locally sourced  FSC wood.

 Sink 

Incorporate the sink into a vanity unit  if you have enough space, If not, attaching the sink straight to the wall to give a minimalist look works well,. I've decided to attach the sink straight to the wall with movable storage underneath Floating vanity units look great and I would say are becoming more popular.

Tub

 Next is your freestanding tub, I know the choice for this type of tub can be dictated upon by the size of your bathroom.  You can see in my design the bathroom is quite spacious, however,   you can fit a freestanding in some challenging spaces  It also allows you to bring curves into the bathroom and not have that  'boxy look' with rectangle bath frame attached to a wall.  This does not have to  cost an arm and a leg either, just be prepared to shop  

Remember: Be mindful of your water consumptions when using your bath ..

Hardware 

When selecting hardware (The jewellery of any room) you want taps and showerheads that reduce water consumption.  There are many on the market at the moment, they look beautiful and are cost-effective in the long run 

You might want to think about installing thermostatic taps for the shower. They allow you to  reach the desired temperature much faster, which means you  miss out on  annoying changes of temperature while showering and the temp remains consistent 

 Water-saving systems can also be set up in your home for all water consumption. So instead of ( or as well as ) addressing how much water you are using with the hardware, you can have a system set up so that water is being recycled in your home, recycling greywater

 Toilet   

When it comes to the toilet which, I do not have in my design, because my design is a feng shui and Pher Shefat design and traditionally the toilet has its own room in both of those wellness philosophies.

 Think about getting a dual flush toilet or depending on your level of commitment to sustainability you could invest in composting Toilet or incinerating Toilet

If you must have your toilet in your bathroom, try to keep it away from your wash areas and keep the toilet seat down at all times, as toilets can release  fumes that can be quite toxic 

A Pher Shefat  house is like a dream home a space you will be able to call a, home  sweet home ; a house that has all the amazing  capabilities in the world to attract abundance, positive energy good health, because it is a home that holistically supports you.  With that been  said  I have to tell you that the Pher Shefat  house is not  just about inviting positive energy into your space , it can also transform negative energy to a positive energy

Basically , a Pher Shefat house not only has the ability to attract positive Sekhem but even has the capability to transform negative Sekhem into a positive one.  If you don;t know what Pher Shefat is, find out here .

  ’ It would not   be hard to guess that,  you  all want love, peace, respect, good health, wealth,  recognition, success, l and all that goodness for ourselves and loved ones  ( I certainly do ) I'm also  pretty sure that you’ve seen a lot  – and I mean a whole lot  of , situations or circumstances where a family is going through  extremely hard  times., some people call it fate; some blame it on luck, while others may name it as Karma;( well it could be karma just not in the way we have been taught understand karma  but that’s not always the case.

Just take a moment to think , why is it all the family members were hit at the same time by this "bad luck"? It's not a coincidence because there is no such thing as coincidence . There has to be something that’s more than just luck or fate, and that’s negative Sekhem   energy impacting the family in – obviously – negative ways. This is one of the prime reasons why we need to do have a Pher Shefat  house that can enhance positive energy  and can transform the negative one to our advantage.

.Achieving a  Sekhem  house isn't difficult at all  , in fact it’s really simple. All you need to do is  do  Pher Shfat for each and every part of a house and  Taa daa  your home becomes a Pher Sheat  compliant one.
