Friday Forum: Designing for Necessity: Making an Impact on the Community through Interior Design

1 IDCEC CEU!

This Friday Forum will focus on the impact interior design can have trauma survivors and the community at large. Danielle Woodhouse Johnson will speak on her experience working with the public, what makes a successful project, and how the design community can get more involved.   

Danielle Woodhouse Johnson is the founder of The Oasis Alliance, an organization that brightens the lives of trauma survivors by co-designing personalized spaces that encourage and support recovery, growth, and wellbeing. The Oasis Alliance believes that interior design is an underutilized tool to empower, encourage and resurrect people at their lowest point. By engaging in a collaborative design process with their clients, the Oasis team aims to help trauma survivors reclaim their sense of self and feelings of agency, enabling them to take a first step in moving through trauma and loss.
