Join Emily Wheeler founder and CEO of Furnishing Futures for an inspiring talk on how the spaces we live in can profoundly shape how we feel. Drawing on her experience designing homes for survivors of domestic abuse Emily explores the powerful connection between our environment and our nervous system - and how thoughtful design choices can support calm, safety, and joy. From colour and light to layout and materials, she’ll share practical insights into creating interiors that feel personal, nurturing, and empowering, rather than clinical or overwhelming.

This talk is for anyone interested in designing a home that doesn’t just look good, but truly supports wellbeing and emotional balance.
