## About

### Houzz Badges

- 1,000 Ideabook Saves

Wellness architect hailing from Australia. I passionately believe our indoor spaces should be a reflection of our lifestyle choices, and happiness and health start at home. 
 
While architecture is my main pursuit, my interests also lie in nutrition, environmental sustainability and holistic design principles. Your living environment is so important to your overall health and happiness and as such, needs to be serene reflection of your lifestyle. Do you know we spend 90% of our time indoors!?

I am always on the lookout for new ways of approaching old issues by guiding my clients to achieve spaces that allow their energies to expand in the best way possible, helping them in turn to reach their full potential in all aspects of live and specifically wellbeing.   
 
I believe our health starts at home, and our environment is such an important factor in the search for wellness. How we are affected by our living environment has enormous impact on our mental and physical state. I help people transform their living environments into vibrant, energetic spaces.

**★★★★★ — Aspiro Renovations LLC, March 2018**

> I worked with Pippa on a bathroom project in Chelsea.  She is professional, hard working, precise and wonderful.  The project went smooth because of her patience and commendable work ethics.  She always learns, asks questions, re-measures, and strives for excellence.  I couldn't wish for a better work partner.  Our client was very happy with Pippa's design and guidance.  I couldn't recommend her highly enough.

**★★★★★ — Bruce Palmieri, Nov. 2016**

> I found working with Pippa to be very rewarding both professionally and personally.  Her design and architectural work was unsurpassed and her pleasant demeanor made it a pleasure to work together.  I would highly recommend her to others.
