Gala explains her 'Beyond Spaces' methodology, which incorporates elements such as Feng Shui, bringing nature into the home, and using healthy materials. They also explore the idea of making small changes to transform our living spaces and the rewarding process of home improvement. In this conversation, Mariette and Gala discuss the importance of creating a cohesive space that reflects your personal style and brings joy. They explore the concept of creating a home away from home and the role of design in creating a sanctuary. They also discuss the importance of designing for community and sociability, as well as grounding and stability. They touch on the six-month funk that can occur after a move and the importance of regularly decluttering and reassessing your space.
