Abstract/Description
Hosted at the breathtaking Peter Michael Winery in Calistoga, California, the Salon offered a powerful setting for imagination and co-creation. Surrounded by vineyards and mountain air, the location served as a living metaphor for the work ahead: like cultivating great wine, growing an interdisciplinary field takes time, intention, and the right conditions. Together, participants dove deep into the Intentional Spaces Roadmap, a collaborative framework advancing the role of design in human health, wellbeing, and belonging.
