Why focus on homes? —

Your home is your mental health

. . . meaning our homes are our foundations; they shape our dreams, creativity, health, and relationships.

Healing power of tea and home

What does design have to do with health? —

The power of architecture extends far beyond aesthetics and functionality; it has the ability to transform lives and promote healing.

The big picture —

When everyone feels seen, heard, & valued relationships thrive & homes are safe.

“Jillian respectfully listened to my hopes for my home and my life within it, visually translated these ideas, and reassuringly assisted in the coordination and ongoing conversations with contractors and sub-contractors to get the job executed properly and professionally.”

Kory

Hey, I’m Jillian -

an intuitive architect and doula ready to guide you through your design project so you get exactly what you want.

Fueled by the feeling of safety in the face of dark midwestern thunderstorms, Jillian decided early in childhood to pursue architecture in order to share that feeling of safety.

She received a Bachelors of Architecture from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville but then became a wife, birth doula, and mom before becoming a licensed architect. She then coached relentless creatives, authored The Relentless Creative Handbook, and created safe space within the grieving loss-mom community before founding Wooly Architecture in Montana in 2018.

Jillian is a licensed architect in TN and MT and lives with her husband and children in Middle TN where she’s always creating something new and enjoying the land that’s been in her family for 5 generations.

On a Mission

Jillian is a founding member of the Family Housing Coalition in Wilson County, TN. By pairing the ideas of Felt Safety and Trauma Informed Design, she is dedicated to designing spaces and sharing practical strategies to see all people dwelling well in safety and community.

Collaborations and conversations with non-profits and affordable developers are always welcome.
