Sensory Interior Design

Sensory Interior Design

Premium interior design from concept to construction, for neurodivergent adults and families in the New York metro area, with the whole nervous system in mind.

Every design begins with a person's individual sensory profile: how light filters through a window, how a surface feels underfoot, how a room sounds when it's occupied. Shell Li, AIA convenes architects, psychologists, therapists, holistic medicine practitioners, and special education teachers to translate that profile into a home that is as beautiful as it is livable.
