THOUGHTFUL MATERIALS

Because style shouldn’t come at the expense of your health—or the planet

You love your home, but worry about the hidden toxins in paints, finishes, or furniture.

You want a beautiful space that feels calming—not cluttered or overwhelming.

You care about sustainability, but don’t know where to start when it comes to design choices.

You’re tired of fast furniture that breaks easily and needs to be replaced often (ending up costing you more in the long run), that ultimately ends up in the landfill.

You wish your home supported your health, your family’s well-being, and the environment.

When you already have so much on your plate, trying to create a space that looks and feels amazing while also choosing healthy and sustainable options for your family can feel so overwhelming.

That’s why we offer full-service, turnkey interior design. We take your vision and transform it into a home that truly reflects your lifestyle and your aesthetic, overseeing every detail, so that you can focus on the things that matter most.

Sustainability isn’t a trend in my process—it’s a commitment

When I became a mom, designing my son’s nursery changed the way I looked at interiors. The details of every product and material mattered. Yes, I wanted it to be cute and cozy - but it also had to be healthy for my baby. That experience made me realize that health & sustainability should be at the core of all designs - and this was the beginning of Alex Shield Design.

My mission is to create and transform spaces into safe, non-toxic, and healthy homes for people to grow and thrive in without compromising their health, comfort, or the planet through sustainable, environmental, and health-conscious design.
