Everyone say hello to Gabby!

Gabby is spending time shadowing us at Shonna Sexton Studio this summer. She has chosen to study interior design because of her passion for creating thoughtful spaces that impact and improve people’s quality of life. With all the new technologies and materials that are influencing the field, Gabby feels inspired to learn more about their applications and interact with them in unique ways. During her time with us she is excited to see how interior designers collaborate across various industries to bring designs to life.

In her down time, Gabby enjoys exploring Nashville’s food scene and visiting new places to experience different cultures, architecture, and design styles.

We are so excited to have Gabby with us and can’t wait to see what the future has in store for her!

Today is World Oceans Day and we are celebrating the work of our friends at Thalassas 🐙

Our oceans are critical for the health of us and our planet, and right now they are struggling. This struggle does and will continue to impact us all. For instance, did you know that if you regularly consume seafood, you could be eating up to 1 plastic bag’s worth of microplastics per month?

Change starts with us in our homes, in our workplaces, and in our friend groups. Thalassas is providing solutions to help clean and maintain our beaches, meaning less trash in our oceans. One of the most abundant types of litter they find is cigarette butts. Many people do not recognize ci******es as litter, likely because people assume they biodegrade. However, when they make it into our soil, our beaches, or our water, they don’t really ever fully breakdown and result in microplastics and toxins seeping into the environment.

Check out this post to see how is working to solve this issue. Plus, stay tuned to learn about some sustainable swaps you can make in your home and daily life to better care for our environment.

Designing with Nature in Mind 🌿 Part 2

Meaningful connections to nature in our living environments can become even more of a priority as urban life demands that we fit larger numbers of people into a smaller footprint. In multifamily developments, views come at a premium. Designing for people to experience nature from the indoors has to be deliberate.

The Flats at Taylor Place presented us with an opportunity to transform their Lobby and Clubroom. Overall, the goal was to make the space more inviting and enjoyable for residents. To do this, we sought to celebrate the building’s proximity to the Cumberland River and highlight the surrounding greenway and park. While the space had an abundance of natural light, its industrial elements felt harsh.

Our design aimed to warm up these spaces by introducing lots of lush, visual textures mixed with hues of green. Things like reeding, wood grain, wicker, and grasses were used to balance the harsh red brick of the walls. Additionally, we commissioned large moss wall hangings to be used through the two spaces, blending the outdoors with the interior.

As a result of these changes, the rooms felt more organic and less discordant with the world around them.

Designing with Nature in Mind 🌿

People spend hours of their lives in workplaces. The environment of a work space can dramatically improve or worsen an individual’s quality of life, mood, and productivity. In this office, executive suites lined the building perimeter and had full access to windows, while administrative staff were placed in the interior core. From a hierarchy standpoint, the layout made sense to leadership. However, it created an environment where many employees spent their entire day without daylight, exterior views, or any meaningful connection to the outdoors. In conversations with both the CEO and administrative staff, a consistent theme emerged: people liked the company and their colleagues, but they did not enjoy coming to work. Visual access to the outdoors helps people stay connected to the natural rhythm of the day. Without those cues, workdays can feel gray, disconnected, and exhausting.

To address these issues, we:
🌿 studied how natural light could move through the space.
🌿 identified ways to preserve privacy while increasing administrative staff access to windows and exterior views.
🌿 removed one office per floor to improve shared access to daylight.
🌿 repurposed underused windowed areas by adding plants and comfortable seating, creating spaces for conversation and informal breaks.
🌿 broke up large workstation areas with ceiling elements that also improved acoustics.
🌿 upgraded the lighting to better mimic natural light.
🌿 introduced more color and natural textures through updated flooring and wall finishes.

Within less than a year, the CEO said that call out rates had dropped by 35% and employee retention and satisfaction had improved. Showing that thoughtful design with the natural world in mind can transform our lives.
