Have You ever wondered, “how can my home be healthier?”
Specializing in healthy building design…clean, health enhancing & beautiful can coexist
Lauren is a certified Building Biologist™(BBNC,BBEc, emrs) through the Building Biology + Ecology Institute in the United States.
Building Biology is a field of science that studies the holistic relationship between humans & their built environment. Following nature as gold standard, think of a Building Biologist as a holistic doctor for your home assessing air, water, light, electro-climate, acoustics + so much more. The construction standards and building code in the US don’t take into account the known health hazards of thousands of common building materials that go into our live and work environments and yet we spend 90% of our times indoors. Are our buildings hurting or helping us?
Lauren unearthed her zeal for environmental building health after facing numerous life altering health challenges. Years of circuitous doctors, specialists, and healers, leaving no stone left unturned, it wasn’t until she transformed her built environment into a healing sanctuary and calmed her inner world through nervous system regulation, that she saw miraculous health improvements. Once she grasped the extent to which her physical and internal environments were contributing to her health, Lauren sensed her responsibility as a building industry professional.
This eye opening experience led Lauren beyond her career as an accomplished interior designer to embrace the holistic field of Building Biology. With extensive background in architecture, construction knowledge, sustainable practices, expertise in environmental health and emotional wellbeing practices, Lauren is among the first interior designers in the country to achieve a triple certification through the International Institute for Building-Biology & Ecology. Trained under leading proponents such as, Paula Baker-LaPorte, Larry Gust, Stephen Collette, Diana Schultz, and Rob Metzinger. As an agent of positive change, Lauren is committed to revolutionize the design and construction industry by pioneering built environments that are natural and healthier for all.
With the intention of empowering, educating + supporting others to achieve optimal health in their built environments, Lauren’s mission is to:
SUPPORT the health and wellness of the occupant through holistic construction, design, home evaluations, testing + mitigation.
&
EDUCATE and INSPIRE building industry professionals (designers, builders, architects, trades) towards healthier and sustainable ways to craft built environments.
As Maya Angelou says, “When you KNOW better, you DO better.”
