Flat Vernacular
category image

Flat (meaning two-dimensional);
Vernacular (meaning a language specific to a place, culture, or group-
in our case, we think of it as our unique visual language).
Flat Vernacular is a design studio that infuses color and character into
spaces large and small with our original fabrics and wallpaper. From
living rooms to restaurants, to gallery spaces to a women’s clubhouse
in the sky, co-founders Payton Cosell Turner and Brian Kaspr create
patterned products from a variety of elements as playful and
captivating as they are distinct. Established in 2010, Flat Vernacular is
inspired in part by childhood memories of standout textiles, and each
original design blends a contemporary sensibility with traces of
history. FV’s made-to-order creations are engineered to impress at
first—and second, and third—glance, because when it comes to
matters of decoration, “pattern makes perfect” is the motto.

Heart in Hand Healing Arts

At Heart in Hand Healing Arts we utilize a holistic approach to healing through both art therapy and counseling. Through gentle curiosity and warmth we will turn inwards to explore and redefine painful emotions such as internalization and shame.

Art therapy is a helpful modality to explore trauma, shame, sadness and fear. Art nurtures exploration without language through metaphor allowing us to “zoom out” and explore with safety and intention. No special materials or experience is necessary!

Art making can occur both in and out of your session. All that is required is a quiet, private place to meet for session and a device to meet for a telehealth video call. Please reach out if you have any questions about art therapy, counseling or how we can support you on your healing journey!
