Hi!

I am Dominique, your Multicultural Well-being Design Guide

Born of German-Chilean heritage, I’ve spent 15+ years creating soulful spaces in diverse cultures. This journey has shaped my unique lens—merging ancestral wisdom, modern science, and the subtleties of energy and emotion.

My craft is more than aesthetics.
I see your space as a living being - either nourishing your essence or unknowingly eroding it.

My gift? Translating your internal world into external harmony.
Blending Biophilic Design, Feng Shui, and Holistic Science-Based Wellness to craft spaces that support not just how you live -but who you’re becoming.

Ready to Discover What Your Space is Calling For?
Every transformation begins with a conversation - and every day in a space that doesn't serve you is a day of missed vitality and joy.

“Beauty is when your space is created with intention, has materials that connect with nature, elements that evoke fond memories, and is so comfortable it feels like a hug”

My Mission

To shape personalized, nature-infused sanctuaries that kindle peace, connection, and well-being.

As a biophilic designer, trainer, and guide, I empower others to awaken their spaces - infusing environments with natural rhythms and soulful presence. Driven by sustainability and compassion, I believe in design that heals people and the planet.

About Studio Nalca

Nalca is a native Chilean plant with vast green leaves - so immense, you can stand beneath one for shelter.
It’s a symbol of protection, wildness, and rooted resilience.

That’s the soul of Studio Nalca: A haven where design, nature, and your truest self converge.

I founded this studio to reconnect people with their spaces and their essence.
To guide them back to a more natural way of living, feeling, and being.

Because we all deserve to live and work in places that restore our senses, reflect our stories, and root us in joy.

A Glimpse of the Lives We've Touched

Biophilia - The Innate Love of Life

What is it?

At its core, biophilia is our primal connection to the natural world.
From the Greek bios (life) and philia (love), it reveals a simple truth:
We flourish when surrounded by life.

Biophilic Design isn’t trendy - it’s timeless. It works because:
🌿 Our brains evolved in wild ecosystems, not gray boxes
🌿 Nature reduces cortisol, sharpens focus, and lifts energy
🌿 Spaces aligned with natural patterns feel right—like a forest walk for your soul

And Science validates it:

- 15% reduction in stress hormones
- 25% improvement in mental clarity and focus
- 76% increase in vitality
- Better sleep, stronger immunity, enhanced creativity...

But numbers aside, it’s about feeling whole again in your own space.

Just take a walk in the forest, mountain or at the beach and you'll feel how the stress washes off, you can think more clearly, focus and be more productive...

Imagine now living and working in a space that inspires calmness, more focus, boosts creativity, and feels like a breath of fresh air.

That's the magic of Well-being & Biophilic Design!
