ABOUT US

At NUEN - Nourishing Environments - our mission is to democratise architectural design by making professional insights accessible to everyone. We believe that healthier, more sustainable living environments shouldn't be a luxury reserved just for the few. Through our web-based platform, we offer affordable, personalised tools that empower home-owners, tenants and home designers to transform their spaces for better health and wellbeing.

We bridge the gap between high-end architectural services and everyday needs by leveraging technology, research and design expertise. Our website delivers home health assessments - and design recommendations - that are grounded in the latest scientific findings and best practice building design. Whether you're improving a single room, planning a major renovation or designing a new home completely, our platform guides you step-by-step toward a healthier, more inspiring environment.

Our commitment is to help and to empower everyone — regardless of budget — to create spaces that support physical and mental health, enhance productivity and promote sustainability. By making architectural design services more inclusive, we aim to foster healthier, happier and more resilient communities for generations to come.

We are on a mission to place human and planetary health at the forefront of decision-making; and to provide access to information on how buildings affect your health. We wish to catalyse rapid advances in the quality of our everyday living environments and to offer efficiencies and cost-savings to project teams while enabling higher quality buildings.

Health of the planet and health of human beings goes hand-in-hand; and it is therefore important to design healthy buildings to also be environmentally sustainable.

Our team consists of qualified, UK-licensed architects, formally trained in healthy buildings and sustainable design. We work with a network of additional specialist consultants, engineers and advisors. Our architects are RIBA chartered and UK-licensed and we have worked on various award-winning projects in London and the South-East of UK, as well as on various luxury and lower-budget residential developments at all project stages: feasibility, concept design, planning, tender, construction and post-construction.
