I was talking with a colleague earlier about renovating her home. She was able to buy a studio type apartment and now she wants redesigned. I suggested several good designs that I found on the internet and she liked the contemporary design that I suggested – a style with wall sconce and paintings on the wall. The lighting is warm on the eyes and the furnishing looks cozy.

She told me she wants to feel like in grandma’s house whenever she is in her apartment (I was supposed to react to that but hehe). Personally, I like a modern approach in my apartment although a cozy warm theme surely is soothing. But heck, it’s her house anyway. Anyhow, I’ll also help her do the shopping on the weekend to get the stuff for the house makeover.
