Kelli Barry, MD

Founder & Principle Designer 

Mindful Design by Kelli, LLC

MY WHY ?

Like you, I serve many roles in life as a business owner, friend, spouse, parent, child, sibling and neighbor. I love each of these hats I wear because I  get to bring my own set of unique skills with me to share with people around me.   This is my motivation each morning when I step out of bed and it is what keeps me grounded in times of chaos. 


I am a creative, highly organized individual who focuses on building meaningful and lasting connections with others.  My superpower is  listening between the lines ... finding the details someone is alluding to but isn't quite saying ... putting the puzzle pieces together.  And since I appreciate a great action plan, tying understanding to solutions is always my ultimate goal. 


These same skillsets, that once served me well in my previous role as a Primary Care Physician, are now coming full circle in helping me provide intuitive, individualized designs for every family I work with.


Years of interacting with patients struggling to find peace, health and purpose in their own lives,  I realized  certain threads seemed to play on repeat.  Lack of time, energy, ease in the day, inability to delegate and prioritize and not allowing for space and time to rest and recharge.  Ultimately, this can affect our health. The good news is that I believe repair can and should begin at home and then carry us forward out into the world. 


So, what if our physical environments could inspire us to feel more physically and mentally strong?   Maybe even help us cut back on the noise and create spaces that feel supportive, easy, inspiring and most importantly healthy.   Given how much time we spend in our homes, our spaces need to connect us to our own WHY and help us prioritize our fundamental values.   If we don't take time to align our spaces to what's most important, then it's likely we will continue feeling depleted instead of recharged by our homes.  



DESIGN APPROACH ?

Mindful Design is rooted in my belief that we are all here to care and support one another.  How I do this has certainly shifted in most recent years, but the outcome remains strikingly familiar. 


I began designing rooms for friends & neighbors and quickly saw the changes that occurred once their projects were complete.  They felt energized, organized, supported and encouraged to step into their own needs, to take time to rest and play together, to rethink their connection with family & friends through use of their new spaces and to have organized systems to help alleviate everyday challenges.  I lead every project with attention to Whole Family Design where each member is cared for and supported (remember my previous career here)!  I embrace what already exists in each family unit - from healthy to infirm, newborns to seniors, spousal design style differences, all degrees of organization or disorganization and a multitude of cultures & family traditions!  I use these as building blocks to create elevated spaces that are also fundamentally functional but fine tuned to each individual's needs...   Yes, even the pets and grandparents !    


By focusing on clients' unique identities and needs, we partner to improve your life by improving your spaces and re-grounding you in what matters most ... your WHY.
