    I love my home because...

    I love the space and enjoy having a modern home. I like my home to feel clean and spacious. Its sleek design gives that effect.

    My decor theme is...

    Simple and everlasting, and yet very modern. Most of my furniture is white. My designers used glass panels instead of concrete walls

    all around the house. They make my home seem more spacious than it already is and allow in more natural light.

    My favourite corner is...

    The balcony. That's where I feel closest to nature. I stand there for a few minutes every day and listen to the birds sing. I also like the staircase. I like to sit on the steps and read the newspapers.

    I'm most proud of..

    The living and dining area. Most of my friends and relatives were impressed with the way the staircase was designed. They say it is unique. When they step into the home, they have an immediate sense of spaciousness.

    Will you sell it?

    Not in the near future.
