Ideal Home Truths
Where’s your happy place?
It would definitely be my bedroom – there's nothing quite like winding down in my own cosy, ambient space that I've curated to my liking. Whether I'm playing video games, reading, binging a new series, or just relaxing, it's my favourite place.
What’s your home addiction?
I love cute and decorative miscellaneous bits and bobs. To me, there’s nothing worse than a space that has no indication that it’s been lived in at all. I want it all – sentimental photos, art prints, souvenirs, merchandise from my favourite interests – little things that serve as reminders of people, things, and places that I love.
What is your next home project?
Now that I managed to get out of the trenches of flat-hunting in the London rental market and secure a place, it would definitely be to actually make it feel like a home, as cheesy as it sounds. When people walk into my flat, I want it to be obvious that it's my home – having my living space act as an extension of all my favourite things.
