Stay At Home Design: Working w/a Designer with Alisha Doorlag

DeAnna On Design

Welcome back to our re-boot of the DeAnna On Design podcast!! Today's topic will feature guest Alisha Doorlag, NKBA. We will discuss the impact of the pandemic & subsequent shelter in place/stay at home ordinances in place in many states/countries on the design industry & how clients & designers can still move forward with existing plans OR starting to plan for future projects so time is not lost. As we are 'sheltering in place' and/or working from home, our home environment has become even more important in terms of our health-mental & physical-and a place where we work, educate & entertain ourselves on a 24/7 basis. Creating and designing an environment that supports us through these unprecedented & challenging times, while still maintaining a sense of normalcy is key to getting through the next month(s). Our re-boot will offer tips, projects & reviews of ideas you can easily implement into your home to make this time a bit easier.
