The Conscious Home: Design with Intention

5 Day Retreat, Polperro Cornwall

12th - 16th October 2026

This is not just a retreat, this is a lifestyle reset

This is a space for those who wish to transform their house into a sanctuary.

There’s something incredibly powerful about stepping away from everyday life and rethinking the environments we return to and I can’t think of a more inspiring setting than Palm Court, with the Cornish coastline right on the doorstep!

This five-day immersive retreat is designed as a pause. A chance to slow down, reset, and reconnect not just with yourself, but with your home and how it supports your wellbeing.

The Conscious Home: Design With Intention is a restorative and thought-provoking experience where I’ll guide you through a more mindful approach to interiors.

Together, we’ll explore how design can influence emotional balance, create calm, and support a more intentional way of living.

We’ll dive into areas such as colour psychology, creating spaces that support your daily rituals, and designing with all the senses in mind.

My aim is to help you shape a home that feels truly personal. One that nurtures you, restores you, and reflects the way you want to live.

Meet Your Host

Leading Interior Designer Becky Harrison worked for 16 years in Commerical Project Management before retraining in Interior Design after witnessing first hand the transformative power of creating buildings that support those who use or live in them.

Becky believes that residential design in 2026 isn’t about following trends. It’s about establishing homes that truly support those who live within them. Restorative spaces that positively contribute to mental, physically and emotional wellbeing. Spaces that are highly functional making them easy to use whilst replenishing the energy our busy modern lives subtract.

Deeply passionat about the transformative power of colour and embracing what brings us joy because as Becky says “if it makes you happy, it belongs in your home”

“I attended a Wellbeing by Design workshop.

It was the perfect combination of information, interaction and creativity, with excellent take away homework. It has transformed how I think about my house and how it needs to work to support me and my family in the lives we lead.”

It was a beautiful day at the wokshop at the Pig near Bath, such a special location and setting, a lovely group dynamic. The preparations and therefore output provided us all with direction and inspiration for designing our rooms to a much higher level.”
