Laksmi, pronounced "Locks Smee", it's Sanskrit, but you can call me Lucky. My first question when I meet a client is, “How does your home make you feel? What is the feeling that you desire which could make everyday better? What can I focus on to make your home your oasis?” My design philosophy is a belief that the beauty of our homes are sacred. I now know that great design improves the nervous system. Our homes are a container for healing, for you, I will focus on the principles of NeuroAesthetics creating a supportive home that encourages your physical well being. NeuroAesthetics is a burgeoning scientific method that documents scientifically how beauty in our homes and businesses make a positive physical impact on our everyday lives. For your home, I’ll focus on how to pull nature in not just with beautiful foliage, but an inspiration of natures soothing design elements as well. Designing this way has been proven to lower blood pressure, heighten memory and retention, increase dopamine production, and prevent stress causing dis-ease. We all want happy families and a supportive lifestyle, why not design with the intention of a healthier life? Amazingly, when incorporating NeuroAesthetic principals in commercial design there is a proven increase in employee happiness and focus thus creating a noticeable ROI in investing in their work environment. In retail stores and restaurants, NeuroAesthetic design principles make for a more engaging environment that encourage clients to spend more time which equals greater profitability. I grew up in the woods of East Tennessee. Nature has always been of the upmost importance to how I feel. I walk almost daily, sometimes twice, to keep my mood up. I obtained my certification in NeuroAesthetics "Design in Science" September 2025. While taking the course I realized I had been incorporating many of the principles of NeuroAesthetics in my design philosophy already, but now I can be more intentional with my designs and know there is proven value in the beauty I create for you. I certainly look forward to getting to know you and your needs. Sincerely, Laksmi Lucky Lumpkin
