The Designhounds Living-Well Retreat - Clearwater, FL
2026-02-19 - 2026-02-22
The Designhounds Living-Well Retreat – Clearwater
Feb 19–22, 2026
This is not a just a beach break.This is not a just a wellness weekend.
This is a design briefing on the future of home.
At the Designhounds Living-Well Retreat, we will challenge you to:

explore tools to prioritize wellness – for yourself, your clients, your projects

imagine residential environments for the next three decades

rethink home design from the inside out

design not for “how we live today” but for how YOU want to live tomorrow

understand aging, autonomy, integrated tech, and wellness as design mandates

explore the emotional and psychological dimensions of living well

We’re going deep — design psychology, longevity planning, healthy materials, lighting science, integrated technologies, and the real economics of aging.
We’re here to redefine wellness in design and rethink the future of living.
If you’re ready to be part of the next evolution of residential design — and to help lead it — then you belong in Clearwater.
