Shannon McLain – Architectural designer

​

Shannon is fascinated by the impact on well-being in all scales of design; from a small scale, like how natural fibers can increase ones focus, to a larger scale, like how bicycle roots in Copenhagen can improve ones emotional health, she believes that the relationship between design and quality of everyday life is important to examine at every scale. Because of this, Shannon often works on Interior Architecture projects at Stanev Potts Architects, focusing on curating conceptual experiences and sensory rich environments.
