Design Expert Cobi Ladner took us on a tour of a beautiful, newly renovated home. She loves to show us how you can achieve great style in a functional family home.



Cobi says that the colours we choose in decor are representative of our personality.

Christopher's favourite colour is INDIGO (dark blue).



If you're an INDIGO person: You're a brilliant old soul who is intuitive, sensitive, impulsive, curious and ambitious, with a great lust for life.

Steven's favourite colour is ORANGE.



An ORANGE person is: Balanced both mentally and physically. Happy, loyal, takes each day as it comes.

And Cobi loves RED, which is the most dominant personality. A visionary and risk-taker: energetic, passionate, tenacious, flamboyant, and courageous.




WHAT DOES YOUR FAVOURITE COLOUR SAY ABOUT YOU?

YELLOW
Cheerful, charming, magnetic, intelligent, confident, and creative. Somewhat psychic, and enigmatic. A good leader and negotiator.

GREEN
The perfect balance between the physical and mental. rounded, logical, not easily influenced, rarely judgmental. An intensely loyal friend - and has lots of them.

VIOLET
Also an old soul. Intense, cerebral, wise, loving, generous, sentimental, and artistic.

ROSE
Main qualities are strength, love and leadership. Turns visions into realities.

GOLD
Radiates love, joy, compassion, and understanding.

LIGHT BLUE
Optimistic, empathetic, flexible, idealistic, tranquil, patient, devoted. A natural mother.
