Mindwell Design Featured in National Post: The Analog Aesthetic

We’re honoured to be featured in the National Post article, “In the Home: The Analog Aesthetic,” exploring the growing desire for homes that feel more grounded, tactile, and emotionally restorative.

In the piece, Gabrielle Kozhukh-Joo, Founder and Chief Visionary Officer of Mindwell Design, shares how today’s homeowners are responding to an increasingly digital world by creating spaces that support slower living, deeper focus, and meaningful connection.

The article highlights how neuroaesthetic design can help reduce mental fatigue by shaping spaces that are meant to be felt, not just seen. From material choices to room layouts, every decision has the potential to influence how people think, feel, and show up in daily life.

Gabrielle speaks to the importance of creating environments that support analog rituals, such as reading, homework, family games, and tech free moments of connection. These spaces are not about rejecting modern life. They are about restoring balance within it.

At Mindwell Design, this philosophy is central to our work. We design homes that quiet the mind, support healthier habits, and bring people back to the moments that matter.

“It’s about creating rooms that are meant to be felt, not just seen.”

We’re grateful to the National Post for including Gabrielle’s perspective in this timely conversation on the return of warmth, tactility, and intentional living in the home.
