Why themes?
Themes have meaning, an association with some event, place, or lifestyle. Scientific research across several fields such as psychology, neuroscience, cognitive science, and environmental behavior research strongly indicate that there is a link between positive meanings in human lives and well-being, including health and longevity.
Does this mean that interior design can improve your health, and maybe even help you live longer. Yes, but that has been known for decades. Abraham Maslow, that "hierarchy of needs" guy, wrote about that back in 1954.
Research shows that a meaningful lifestyle, including your environment, may increase your health and longevity. To create that environment simply choose a lifestyle theme that has meaning to you and build that environment around you. You could spend your money on a new car, a cabin, or an expensive vacation. However, it is your environment at home that will give you the most benefit if you create one that has more meaning than mass-produced stuff.
Of course other factors can reduce this benefit and you already know that factors such as stress, obesity or smoking harm you.
Use kits to create lifestyle ambiance
Unleash your creative impulses with inspiring themed kits that jump start your own designs. Use Intiri Designs' kits to easily create your dream lifestyle ambiance and experience. Our kits are tools for you to design environments that evoke positive emotions and moods through associations with your favorite lifestyle.
Intiri Designs' products are thematic designed kits. Our first products are California Wine Country table setting kits. These kits are not only fun to "play" with but are tools to assist the hostess in creating a special environment in the home or on a road trip picnic.
Each kit is designed with the colors, patterns, textures, and forms that are familiar elements of the theme. We research the theme for years and immerse ourselves in the lifestyle. Kit design begins after we have carefully identified the appropriate design elements and products.
Each design has a story and many of the products are handcrafted by artisans who are inspired by the theme. We will soon be bringing you their heartwarming stories. When you include their products in your home you are including their stories in your life. Unless, of course, you prefer to live with stories such as "Made in China".
