Tell us a little (or a lot) about your home and the people who live there: I live with my two best friends. The space is super small with only one room as the common space.

So, we had to make it as functional as possible but wanted it to be a really fun space that wouldn’t get boring to us. We call it our three-bedroom studio.

Describe your home’s style in 5 words or less: Funky yet functional

What is your favorite room and why? I would say the living space (which includes kitchen, living room, laundry, etc.). We have just made it very vibrant but still cozy at the same time. We love cooking dinner and watching movies together.

What’s the last thing you bought (or found!) for your home? I got a wall decal from Pastel Prints on Etsy!

Any advice for creating a home you love? Invest in your space because it reflects on your mood and everyday life.
