Description
You make multiple design decisions every day, decisions which can reflect your values in a powerful way. Gain a better understanding of what matters to you by seeing how your actions (or inactions) are paramount to the health and well-being of your community and your environment. Walk through a framework to articulate your values and set project goals, and use your expert influence and purchasing power to make decisions that are enriching, not depleting. Through a deliberate approach and research, your values can guide the decisions you make on a personal and professional level to impact health, wellness, and sustainability through design, even on a small scale.

Marylena Sevigney, Allied ASID, WELL AP, Fitwel Ambassador
Founder
Mindful Making and Design
Not being a fan of labels, Marylena Sevigney has lived on the outskirts, never really fitting into one category. She’s inspired by exploring the unexpected meanderings of the edges, where combinations of life’s variety are most interesting, like where a river winds through farmland, increasing energy and productivity. Permaculture principles, such as “design in the edges,” provide a comfortable framework where Marylena uses her diverse skills to design, draw, make, lead, think and teach. Her roots reside in designing furniture and interiors and creating sculpture at RISD. But she prides herself on managing projects and events and being a leader. With a strong influence from the natural world, her design straddles interior and exterior environments. She is WELL AP certified, as well as a NH Master Gardener, a Permaculture Designer and teacher and a 2019 ASID “One to Watch.” She practices and teaches design and art in Central New Hampshire, while maintaining her business, Mindful Making and Design.
