Dr. Sheryl Ziegler joins 9NEWS to weigh in how a home's interior design can influence the mood, emotions, and mental health of the people who live or visit the home.


1. For many, cleaning, purging, and organizing are necessary first steps toward creating a space that supports their mental well-being. But what about after the clutter is gone?

2. You have talked about color and design, what about bringing nature into our home spaces?

3. What if you can't keep plants alive, are there options for those people?!

4. Is it all about trees and greenery or are there other elements in nature that are calming?

5. How does lighting play a role in our mental health?
