00:00Three things you won't see in my house, you'll not see the Christmas tree there for a very long time.
00:10Hi Marth, I'm Angelo of Gaming Hairstyle.
00:13Your home was featured recently in a magazine feature.
00:17You have heirloom pieces when it comes to your design and also of course your designer pieces.
00:25When it comes to styling your home, what is the most important thing that you have to do in your interiors?
00:32Bear in mind, maybe it has to really be who you are.
00:36You really have to feel at home, you really have to feel comfortable.
00:40I love the way minimalist looks on Instagram, on Pinterest, but truly it's not who I am.
00:47So I try it out, but I'm not happy.
00:50It's like dressing up, what you put there has to have a story, it has to have a connection.
00:56So it may look cluttered for other people, but if it looks beautiful for you, that's what's important.
01:02There are no rules, you don't have to, for it to look rich or for it to look lux, this is what Instagram says.
01:09No, it's how you think it'll look beautiful, that's what's important.
01:14One would be the placement of the carpet and what exact shade of white you need.
01:20No matter how limited the space you have, when you have a lot of white or off-whites, it always makes it look spacious.
01:31A clear glass table would also be ideal, you don't want to keep putting solid structures in your house, it'll limit the space.
01:41Number three, try to create a space that has high ceilings.
01:45You can always do that with a little bit of renovation.
01:48Even if it's just the middle that's high, there are those styles.
01:52Number four would be beveled mirrors, always a must.
01:58Try not to be shy with the size, the bigger the better.
02:02Maybe floor to ceiling would be ideal.
02:05Number five, I love playing with curtains.
02:10If you have a studio, I have that actually.
02:13It's not a studio, it's more like a two-bedroom.
02:16But for the living room, I made it a bedroom.
02:20So I just put a nice curtain, a sheer, double curtain that's solid and sheer.
02:25So you just kind of place it, it looks delicate and then it's open space and you have more kind of dimensions in your apartment.
02:33Yeah?
02:34Well, first is life lesson, don't pressure yourself too much.
02:38I know that's hard to do a day at a time.
02:41Focus on your health, health is wealth.
02:44You will earn it eventually.
02:46Number two, whenever you have your place, don't be pressured what you see on social media.
02:52It's all about building your collection.
02:54So maybe invest on, well you don't have to because when you purchase RLC, you already have the ref, the lights are perfectly done.
03:04Even like the bathroom, the things that you don't think about, the drainage, plumbing is perfect now.
03:11So maybe it would be like when you build your collection, look at it.
03:16It's not about how beautiful it would look or like the sofa, it's slowly building it
03:23because each piece should have a story.
03:25It doesn't have to look good.
03:27You don't, I mean, aspirational isn't like instant being rich.
03:34It's the story, it's the journey, so that's the same with your home.
03:38So never be pressured about how it looks, it has to look 100%, no.
03:43Just focus on the story and the feeling of, I was able to purchase this slowly.
03:51Take things slowly, even with your home.
03:53Three things you won't see in my house, you'll not see the Christmas tree there for a very long time.
04:00Actually, that's always a struggle for me when it's Christmas.
04:04Because I love Christmas and I do love the Christmas tree.
04:07But there are a lot of garlands, a lot of decorations.
04:11Sometimes the glitter gets in the way.
04:13So I hate glitter in the house because it gets in the way.
04:17After one week, the glitter gets in your face. I hate that.
04:21I love good whites, I love neutral colors.
04:26My favorite spot in my house would be the second floor.
04:29I have a small living room and all of my, I call it anik-anik or abloids are there.
04:35And I feel like I can look at my whole life in that one room.
04:40So I like sometimes like a very intimate space.
04:43I don't like so much a big, big house because I get lonely fast.
