Stepping into my penthouse is almost like entering a different era. Despite the white walls and built –in furniture, I transformed my abode into a souvenir sanctuary- a home to me and my husband. Walking into the foyer and extensive living area is like visiting a palace.

You can’t help but notice the chandelier suspended over the dining table. Though old world in spirit, our home is not far behind in terms of modern amenities. Our lights-thoroughly modern- were purchased on discount through a friend. The crystal chandeliers looks so elegant in the living room.The glowing atmosphere that is similar to a candlelight adds instant glamour to the room. Chandeliers really sets the tone and a great focal point for a room. Curtains made of rich fabrics from Bangladesh, Thailand, laos and India are hanging on different part of my house. Since no structural interventions could be made on the unit, we had to cleverly arrange the interiors to create a look all our own.

I believe that if you want a unique place, you must invest time and allow things to happen on their own.
