Let's Talk About Your Design Needs

At ES Designs, I believe that every home should be a sanctuary, especially for those with unique needs. As a mom in a family with neurodivergent needs and a designer, I specialize in creating spaces that cater to the specific requirements of individuals with ADHD, Anxiety, Autism, Alzheimer's, Dementia, Limited Mobility, Sensory Processing Disorders, and those who wish to age in place. I will work with you to make your home fit your family.

Thoughtful Interior Design for Sensory-Friendly & Accessible Homes

Not every home feels comfortable to an autistic child or those with physical impairments, but everyone deserves a place that feels like home. Using strategic combinations of color, lighting, texture, and space planning, I transform your environment into a space that truly fits your lifestyle and needs.

Approach

My key approach for designing for neurodiverse needs is to understand how a space affects the users. Oftentimes, lighting, color or textures play a role in how we feel in the space, changing that feel can increase comfort and assist in self-regulating.
​
When designing for physical needs and aging, the layout, lighting, color, and materials greatly affect the design strategy. Choosing products and finishes that promote safe use of the space and are easy to clean is essential. 

Design Solutions for Unique Needs

  • For executive functioning assistance, I might design a work or study space that limits distraction and houses all the necessary tools in one place. Or we might need to design a drop zone near the front door that helps keep necessities organized.

  • To control sensory input we would work together to find the right combination of color, texture, and stimulus to create a calming or stimulating space as needed.

  • For safety in the kitchen, we can add locks and barriers to more dangerous utensils. We can also replace appliances and materials to support the safe use of the space.

  • Safety in the bathroom often revolves around the layout and the materials used. This will often require a more extensive remodel but we can also look into less expensive changes if the budget calls for it.

  • Universal design principles allow for the space to be used by everyone, regardless of age, size, or ability. Using these principles creates a space that is flexible and adaptive to meet changing needs.
