Designing Through Your Senses: Creating Spaces That Nourish the Soul

ByKerr Design Build

At Kerr Design Build, we believe that great design isn’t just about how a space looks—it’s about how it makes you feel. That’s why we were thrilled to host our seminar on February 20, Designing Through Your Senses: Creating Spaces That Nourish the Soul, where we explored the deeper connection between design and human experience.

Led by our talented design experts, Nisha MacNeil and Alejandra Baro, the session took attendees on a journey through the five senses, demonstrating how elements like color, lighting, texture, and even scent shape our perception of a space. We discussed how thoughtful design choices can evoke emotions, create a sense of calm or energy, and support our daily routines in ways that go beyond aesthetics.

A key takeaway from the seminar was the importance of designing with intention—choosing materials, layouts, and colors that enhance a space’s functionality and emotional impact. Whether it’s the warmth of natural textures, the vibrancy of a well-placed color palette, or the peace of an organized, clutter-free environment, every design decision contributes to how a space is experienced.

For those who attended, we hope you walked away inspired to rethink your own living spaces. And for those who couldn’t make it, we’re pleased to share the full seminar PDF so you can explore these ideas at your own pace. Download it and discover how to design a home that truly nourishes the soul.
