Creating naturally functional and healthy spaces that empower You.
Creating naturally functional and healthy spaces that empower You.
I create well-functioning and uplifting spaces for my clients to thrive. Imagine falling in love with your space every day! Effective and easy-to-use, every aspect of your daily life "streamlined" allowing you to concentrate on what you love to do. I use biophilic design to open the connection to the healing nature.
Serving both residential and commercial clients, I assess the current usability and can often create new looks by using what you have.
I provide suggestions and resources for adding functionality when you are settled in your space but need more out of it, or when life changes but you don't want to move, and especially when considering aging-in-place solutions. I have the talent and experience in creating usability without compromising esthetics and how to make even the smallest spaces work.
Sustainability comes in many forms and provides healthier solutions for everyday life. I offer recommendations on how to change your habits and your space to promote your health and well-being. There are plenty of small, simple ways to bring in sustainability, as well as larger budget renovations/changes.
Are you a do-it-yourself type? Get into the "doing" part with the knowledge that the results will be worth your time. We will talk about what changes are needed in your space and how you can achieve that. I can recommend resources to you when a professional is required. I also serve house-hunters considering the not-so-perfect options and provide ideas on how to turn a fixer into a dream home..
As one of Portland’s innovative designers, I have a talent for space; I see it, I feel it, I visualize how it can function. I sense how the space can better support you. My impressions give life to the design I envision for your home or business.
My ideas of sustainability include utilizing items and furniture you already own and adding only what is necessary. I create spaces for you that have the natural connection that is so important for general health and well-being. In my opinion, your space should inspire you and support how you live and work best.
Busy lives are stressful, so it’s important to live and work in spaces that can infuse you with tranquility and renewed energy. It is my greatest pleasure to see the change in my clients after their spaces are transformed to reflect their aspirations and how it promotes the collective well-being.
Having lived most of my life in Finland and Sweden, the Nordic design style combining natural beauty and efficient organization is a part of my identity. I have a degree in textile design and have studied Feng Shui and Indigenous traditions regarding spaces in the search of fulfilling my life purpose. I use my experience and knowledge in designing natural, healthy and sustainable spaces, promoting the spiritual connection between you and your space.

I am grateful for Päivi who has been helping me make some long-needed changes in my home. She is not only helping me reorganize and make my space beautiful with things I love that have been hiding in storage, but helping me let go and make changes to help shift my energy to support where I am in my life NOW (vs. when I moved here 7 years ago) and where I am going. Changing a space can be intimidating, but she has a way of making me feel safe and understood with the process.
Paivi has a unique ability to step into your office space, know intuitively what might help you, while listening to your deepest needs. I was amazed by how much we accomplished in just two short hours. Her suggestions opened up the energy flow in my office; I literally felt the difference after moving just one book-shelf. I highly recommend Paivi to anyone wanting to improve their home or office space, and look forward to working with her again.
I love that Päivi incorporates nature into her designs, that she utilizes the person's existing objects as much as possible.
She helped me rearrange and update the main level living space of our home. It made a huge difference in the flow, and made it feel more like home. Everything feels so much more calm and comfortable. I highly recommend her and her work. Päivi's kind and patient demeanor makes the process easy and fun.
I would like to thank Päivi for helping me organize and decorate my office space! She listened to my needs and brought my office to life! I just love sitting in my office feeling organized and free of clutter. Thank you with all my heart Paivi!!
So very grateful for Päivi for guiding me through the move of my home office. Not an easy task and one I have put off for over a year. I am loving my new space and could not have gotten through this without her support
❤️ ❤️ ❤️
I'm so thankful to Päivi for her expertise in organizing spaces and her Feng shul mastery. She has motivated my husband to clear a stagnant and cluttered space. I swear she has the strength of 10 men, that last part may be and exaggeration. She is amazing!
