Dining by Design

We all know that we need all of our senses to experience a great meal. Seeing perfect grill marks on a steak, having the smell of garlic & onions hitting you as you walk by an open kitchen, or hearing the sizzle of fajitas as they come to your table - these all enhanced and elevate our dining experience. But what about everything around you that isn‘t on the plate? The atmosphere and ambiance of the physical space where you enjoy these meals also has an impact on how you process the experience. And it is critical when you factor in the factors that come with creating a space that is both communal, home-like, and geared for an older adult. That’s why Aaron spoke with Moria Soden for this Tips from Trestle episode. Moria is the Owner and Principal Designer of 1720 Design Group based out of the greater Dallas/Fort Worth area.
