    It's wonderful to see Eva featured here. She's so talented. Nice to see how she uses her African Origin to influence her style....so unique. As a black African woman I feel so inspired to see someone who looks like me in this space. Representation is important. Just love her ❤

    I love this home. Everything is so beautiful, warm and well thought out, right from the gentle touch of color in the serene bedroom, to the way all these lovely colors work so well together. It is obvious there is love in this home. And that tiny hint of a German accent rings so true to me. Many years ago my family and l came over from Germany so that is music to my ears. THANK YOU FOR A LOVELY TOUR.
