'We instantly fell in love with it.'
This week, we’re in Hackney in East London Welcome back to What I Own – Metro’s property series where we speak to homeowners about getting on the ladder. For last week’s sister column, What I Rent, we visited 29-year-old Leila Davis and her wife Fleur in leafy South East London. Since moving in July 2019, they’ve transformed a tiny flat with next to no storage into a colourful dopamine dream, affectionately referred to as Casa de Modelei.
Hi Buster! How have you made the property feel like home? / What’s the inspiration for your interior decor style? The flats were built in 1970 so we always want to give a nod to that period through decor and the colours we choose. Having grown up in the 70s, David found a familiarity in the mid-century furniture that would have been in his parents’ house and, while I loved that, I am known for being someone who gets bored quite easily and gets his own way.
