Tell us a little (or a lot) about your home and the people who live there: Every home certainly reflects one’s personality. I truly believe in less is more. An organized, minimal, and clutter-free space speaks of my style. I am naturally drawn toward neutral and pastel tones. Adding eclectic accessories brings in the fun element and helps to break the monotony.

It’s just me and my husband who reside in our home. Our home is a work in progress. I love incorporating natural elements in decor and living, a mix-and-match of old and new. DIY projects and makeovers are a must to keep adding much-needed change. Indoor plants are great.

Describe your home’s style in 5 words or less: Eclectic Chic

What is your favorite room and why? The living room happens to be my favorite room. The walls behind the couch and the opposite gallery wall are thoughtfully styled with handwoven baskets and favorite movies/music posters. The natural light flows in through the window in the room, keeping it lively and positive. We happen to spend our leisure time in this space to relax and unwind.

What’s the last thing you bought (or found!) for your home? The last thing that I bought for home was a handful of earthen lamps from a local store.

Any advice for creating a home you love? Try to bring in a balance between functionality and aesthetics.
