About this episode
Imagine transforming your home into a sanctuary that not only soothes your soul but also stands as a testament to ethical living. Join me, John McClain, and pioneer Deborah Dimare as we navigate the intersection of interior design and moral responsibility, ensuring that every piece of furniture and fabric honors both your well-being and the planet's. Our lively discussion explores my journey to creating healthful living spaces, and Deborah's transition from traditional design to championing animal rights and sustainability within the industry.This episode isn't just about aesthetics; it's a deep dive into the heart of vegan and cruelty-free design practices. Delve into the world of non-toxic materials with us as we inspect the challenges designers face in sourcing ethical products, such as the elusive featherless sofa, and how bedroom environments can be revitalized with GOTS-certified organic materials. We share practical tips for those yearning to create a nurturing home environment—one that is family-friendly, durable, and free of harmful toxins.Whether you're a seasoned professional or a curious novice, there's a wealth of knowledge to be gained as we craft spaces that not only look good but do good, fostering healthier communities one room at a time.Learn more about Deborah: www.dimaredesign.com Use Code: The Designer Within to save 40% off of her kids and babies room design course: https://dimaredesign.com/online-babies-and-kids-room-design-course/Deborah Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/deborahdimare/Deborah's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/987654061723239DeboText Me a Message!FREE VIDEO TRAINING DIRECT FROM JOHN:Design feels natural.The business side doesn’t.Join this free 39-minute training for interior designers and learn the 3 secrets to building a profitable, stress-free design business without burnout or chaos.?
