Create a Healthier Home & Framework to Achieve Optimal Wellbeing
Design For Wellness
We’re so happy you're here! We have so much we want to share with you!
We passionately believe that design matters, that what you surround yourself with has a profound effect on your physical, mental and emotional self. It’s time for Balanced Interiors to expand into not only creating aesthetically beautiful spaces, I’ll keep doing that, I love creating with you, but expanding into how one can curate a healthy home and workplace environment.
I couldn’t be more proud in saying that collaborating with me on this is my daughter Catherine. We have developed a 4 pillar program to help immerse you in a safe and supportive environment. We’ve learned so much from each other, embracing a sustainable lifestyle where we are surrounded by people and things that support us physically, mentally and emotionally. Going sustainable means you’re making a healthy choice - one that will help you create an environment that supports and nurtures you back to your balanced and vibrant self.
It’s not a traditional health program, rather its a whole life approach, you might say holistic. We look at all of your routines, your relationship with food, what does your home environment look like, and ask, is it supporting you?
When we think of one's overall health, it is all of these factors and more that make up our well-being. We can achieve a better sense of balance by continuously making adjustments and building routines while leaving space for creativity to be infused.
Be well,
Monique Sabatino | Founder and owner of my Interior Design company, Balanced Interiors

ENVIRONMENT
Our environment, at home and in the workplace have a significant impact on our overall wellbeing. We cannot control our external environment but we can control the environment within our own home. Does your environment support a healthy lifestyle?
Do you have access to natural light, clean air and water? In this pillar, we will dive into several aspects of your environment ranging from synthetic fragrances, cleaning products, sustainable furnishings and layout. We will work together to create a space where you can feel calm and rejuvenated.
NUTRITION
Food is one of the most powerful forms of medicine we have. Our food choices and the ingredients we consume have a significant effect on our health and overall well being. Many of us have recognized an imbalance in our eating habits and are consciously making lifestyle changes and modifying our diets.
In this pillar, you will learn about the importance of ingredients, building a healthy pantry and why it's important to know where you food is coming from. We’ll help you navigate GMO’s, toxins in your cookware, how to tap into your local food market scene to eat seasonally and recipes and meal prepping to go along with your lifestyle needs.
PERSONAL CARE
Our skin is our largest organ and what you put on it matters.
What you wear, how you feel in your body, the way your skin glows, contributes to your sense of self and overall wellbeing. Your body absorbs everything from the lotions you lather on, to the perfume or cologne you spritz with each morning.
In this pillar we will take a deep dive into the personal care industry and uncover hidden truths. We'll share what is allowed in the US but banned across most of the world, and create a routine that is healing and healthy for you and the planet.
SACRED SPACE
Every home deserves a space where one can relax, calm their minds, breath and come back to their natural state of balance. It need not be a whole room, many of us don’t have that luxury. Since 2020, we’ve already had to transform and share rooms to create a home office.
In this pillar we’ll guide you in where to clear the clutter, how to use essential oils to set the mood and so much more.

As founder and owner of my Interior Design company in Rhode Island - Balanced Interiors I firmly believe that surrounding yourself in an aesthetically pleasing environment is vitally important. The way we care for our homes and ourselves can largely impact our health and wellness. When we consciously choose to make our home a place of harmony, it becomes a haven that allows us to rejuvenate and relax from our hectic modern life. I help my clients design their homes and workplace so that they are a reflection of who they are and how they want to live.
