Mood Enhancers
IMPROVE YOUR HEALTH AND YOUR LIVING ROOM
Author: Christian Dare
If you’ve ever had a hot
mess of a roommate whose idea
of cleaning up is putting their
jacket in the oven, or have lived
in a basement apartment where
the major light source is a Glade
plug-in, then you know how much
environment can affect your
mood. The psychological effects
of bad lighting, clutter and sad
furniture can really start to mess
with your shit. So rather than
burning sage and hoping for the
best these whimsical Canadian
designs will help you optimize
the positive vibes in your room to
maximize your mood.

TRANSFORMATION

The Japanese believe that
one must consider the flow of
energy while designing spaces.
A good flow is said to nourish
the space and its inhabitants.
For the commitment phobes
out there who want to change
the shape of a room without the
responsibility of a permanent
structure, there is softwall by
molo. The accordion-like beauty
which can be shaped in countless
curved or linear formations, folds
down to the thickness of a book
and even absorb sounds. It’s an
easy and chic way to establish
boundaries when your roommate
is practicing the trombone.
