How to make a Taipei apartment your home. Before and after pics below!
First, get some love from home, lots of pillows due the trick. My awesome Mom bought me these gorgeous silk pillows that wish wealth and happiness to our home. It makes my bay window area classy and cozy, oh yeah!
With whatever extra photos you have, make a cool wall collage!
Warm up the extra room by making it an office.
A smallish kitchen can have overflow out the door with the table that came with the place.
This bathroom…not much you can do…but it works!
How far nice textiles can go!
Tidying up the storage loft was easy, I can even stand up in there. There’s room enough to make this an extra ‘bedroom’ too! Then, there is the outside, the balcony on a cloudy day with fancy laundry apparatus…
Oh, what is this, steps upstairs?!
Why yes, hello sun and view, now it feels welcoming.
Even on a stormy night, there is always light!
So, there you are folks, it takes some effort, but well worth it for an awesome Taipei home. This is downtown too, no Asian shoebox we are living in, no way!
Come to Asia and see what greatness is in store.
Looks amazing! Happy New Year to you both. Miss and love you. Steff xxx
Thank you! We miss you! There’s lots of room for guests, and even more comfy when we get our own futon.
May 2014 be filled with many blessings. Love you! Xoxxxx
You have made the new apartment a home!!! Looks good….. and what a nice balcony with a view. That’s worth a lot.
Most Definitely, Merci!
