Hi, I’m Erns.

I’m a WELL Accredited Professional, an NCIDQ Certified Commercial Interior Designer, and a survivor of a high-control religious group. I've spent my life studying the intersection of health and the built environment.

But I'm also just a guy living in Victoria, BC, who sometimes has to shove a laundry basket out of frame before a video call.

Growing up as a Mennonite immigrant, my ancestors were dike builders ("Wall") and breach dwellers ("Wieler"). I know what it means to build walls for survival. Now, my mission is to help you build walls for Geborgenheit—the profound feeling of being completely safe and held by your environment.

Whether you're recovering from burnout, healing from trauma, or just tired of fighting your floor plan, you deserve a space that treats you with compassion.
