We exist to empower you

 Make a positive impact from home with a ripple effect that spans the globe

Here are the challenges we address

01. The Eco-Conscious Dilemma

Picture this: you’re caught in a dilemma, torn between two desires. On one hand, you yearn for a Pinterest-worthy home, a sanctuary of aesthetics that represents your style. On the other, you bear the weight of responsibility not to harm our precious planet. These two aspirations often collide, leaving you feeling trapped and uncertain. It’s a struggle many of us face, and it’s only natural to wonder if you can relate.

02. Intentions vs. Actions

Now, here’s the twist. You genuinely want to make eco-friendly choices, but it’s often challenging to see how your intentions translate into meaningful actions. It’s as if there’s a missing link between your good intentions and the real environmental impact of your choices.

03. The Guilt & Doubt

Guilt becomes a constant companion on this journey. You find yourself questioning the necessity of every change you wish to make. “Do I genuinely need this alteration, or am I just indulging in aesthetics?” The battle between the excitement of crafting a beautiful living space and the awareness of the ecological footprint rages on within you. You’ve even experienced that wave of guilt when considering purely aesthetic changes, wondering if your ethical side is giving you the side-eye.

04. Overwhelm and Eco-Anxiety

The overwhelming enormity of environmental concerns can lead to a unique form of anxiety—eco-anxiety. You care deeply about our planet, yet you grapple with the fear that your efforts might not be enough to steer the world away from a concerning path. It’s a mix of guilt, worry, and a sense of helplessness.

05. Aesthetic Goals vs Environmental Consciousness

Your dream is to create a visually stunning, Pinterest-worthy home. However, you’re equally committed to protecting the environment. These two goals can sometimes feel like they’re tugging you in opposing directions, leaving you in a state of doubt and uncertainty.

06. The Ripple Effect of Choices

You worry about the ripple effect of every decision you make. It’s not just about aesthetics; it’s about understanding the full scope of your actions. You want to help, but the overwhelming nature of the task often leaves you unsure of how your individual choices can truly make a difference.

Our Difference

We See You, Truly

We’re here to tell you that your concerns about the impact of your design choices are valid. We’ve lived those moments ourselves, staring at a space that’s begging for change, but also being mindful of the natural resources it takes to make that change happen. We’ve been through those times when every decor decision seems like a mini moral dilemma. “Is it worth the environmental toll?”

An Emotional Fog

It’s like the more you want to do right by the planet, the more anxiety creeps in, making every choice feel heavy. And oh, that eco-anxiety – we know it well. That mixture of guilt, worry, and helplessness that washes over you when you’re trying to do the right thing.

We’ve felt it too, that feeling of wanting to contribute positively but being unsure if your individual efforts even matter; feeling the weight of every decision, wondering if our choices are aligned with our values. We understand the eco-anxiety that can arise when you’re passionate about ethical living and worried about the choices you make.

Your Guiding Light

That’s why Wildlifeel at Home was born. We’re a lifeline for eco-conscious souls like you who crave to be eco-warriors. We are your compass for wildlife-friendly home design solutions. We know the homes of wildlife deserve protection just as much as our own, and we step into the design process to keep that front and center.

Our services are like deep dives into the impact of your choices, so you can make informed decisions that align with your values. We’re here to show you that your design choices can be a force for good, that every choice counts, and that you’re not alone in this journey. Afterall, we must address the worry that comes with every choice, and the beautiful desire to do better. That’s why we’ve built this haven, where your aspirations find their design counterparts.

Need more info? Check out our most frequently asked questions.

Can you provide examples of previous projects you have completed?

Yes, please contact me for links to previous projects I’ve worked on and a copy of my portfolio. (Previous work will be uploaded to this site in time.)

How do I request a quote for your services?

By clicking on one of the client packages above, you’ll be directed to a questionnaire. With that info in hand, I can supply an estimate for the total project. This is a good-faith estimate, and is conceptual in nature. However, you’ll always receive updates about where we are in relation to the estimate so you’re never in the dark.

How long does it usually take to complete a project?

This depends on the size and scope of the project. It can take from 2 months to over a year, in many cases. Eco-friendly design services are more so about the quality than the timeline 🙂

Can you work within specific budget constraints?

Yes, it is helpful to know of your budget upfront to ensure we remain within any constraints. And if the budget is too tight, I’ll recommend a consultation package rather than design.

Are there any limitations or restrictions on the types of projects you undertake?

Most of my work is residential, however I have commercial experience and am open to discussing these projects too. Contact me about anything further!

Do you collaborate with other professionals or contractors, such as architects or builders?

Absolutely – this is a big part of the work. I’m also comfortable to simply be in your corner 🙂

How do you communicate and collaborate with clients throughout the project?

Unless you’re local to the Eastern Olympic Peninsula area of WA, my work is set up to work well remotely. We can communicate through email, phone calls or video.

Do you provide progress updates or reports during the project?

I favor these, so it’s a core checkpoint throughout the design process. We can discuss in detail the level you are comfortable with and I will surely accomodate that in addition to whats already within my signature workflow.

Are there any post-service support or maintenance options available?

Yes! This is an optional service that can help build your confidence in time. I think of this as training, so offer all that I know through a consultation service.

How do you handle any changes or modifications requested during the project?

Like the services above, any changes or modifications are handled by the hour – to keep things simple. I’ll label these as typical ‘change orders’ to keep those funds separate as well.

What happens if I am not satisfied with the final outcome of the project?

We continue working until you are satisfied! You are my prioritiy, and any ‘new’ projects are kept at bay until I know you are completely satisfied and felt cared for.
