BELOW: House of Interiors, Bloemfontein chose Screen Roller Blinds

from Blind Designs for the patio area of this home. As beautiful to look

at as they are practical, these blinds not only protect the furniture from

the sun’s rays, but also allow the home owner to enjoy the view outside

while controlling the heat and glare.

“The area we live in is safe, and it fits our lifestyle of ‘going

all the way’ to fulfil one’s creative home aesthetic abilities.”

And fulfil them they did. “The interior décor style is

immaculate. It’s a mixture of classic and contemporary

modern design, with what almost seems like a confusing

colour scheme that ultimately blends beautifully to

create a tapestry of class. We feel it portrays a sense of

sophistication and our simplicity as ordinary human beings at

the same time.”

It’s the warmth of the space and these unique touches

that ultimately transform this house into a home. “To be

called a home, a house should automatically have a feeling

of love and warmth the minute you step inside. I also feel a

house is just a container made from brick and mortar without

a woman’s touch.”>
