What we do
Our homes are a powerful reflection of who we are, where we’ve been, our families and friends. Consequently, they fill and grow, becoming a personal and loved collection of books, toys, furniture, technology and inherited items. However, sometimes the buildup and abundance of these belongings can become mentally overwhelming and physically limiting.
At Lighter Spaces we provide sensitive, practical and knowledgeable support to help you sort and clear your home, helping you to achieve your goals, whether that’s a calm and stress free home, repurposing the space or moving house. For those later in life, guided by the ethos of Döstädning, we can help you edit your possessions in a mindful way so you can move onto your next life stage.
Our services include:
- Decluttering & organising
- Removing items sustainably
- Arranging for the sale of items
- Practical guidance on valuations
- Unpacking & styling
A guide to Döstädning
Döstädning, or the art of ‘death cleaning’, is a popular Swedish phenomenon by which people set their affairs in order in a timely way before retiring or moving to a smaller home to ease stress for their families later. It takes a compassionate approach to identifying what matters to you and what you need for your next life stage. Whether it’s sorting the family heirlooms from the junk or setting up a system to help you stop misplacing your keys, Döstädning is a way to organise your home, making life as comfortable as possible for you and your family, now and in the future.
