About this listen

How do the spaces we live and work in shape our emotions, relationships, and overall well-being? In this debut episode of Design Deep Dive, host Dr. Suzan Ahmed (Dr. Za)—a clinical psychologist, integrative coach, yoga teacher, and design psychologist—introduces the concept of design psychology and its impact on our lives.

Dr. Za shares her journey from psychotherapy to design psychology, speaking about how lighting, color, furniture, and even scent influence our mental and emotional states. She explores how our unconscious relationship with space affects our sense of security and personal growth, and how design psychology can be used to create environments that truly support our well-being.In this episode:

  • The foundations of design psychology and its role in shaping our environments
  • How space influences mental health, self-expression, and personal growth
  • The connection between home, memory, and identity
  • What a design psychology consultation looks like and who can benefit from it
  • How this field bridges the gap between psychology, architecture, and interior design
