Client fileENTRY DETAILS: I chose Kesse Kogo to design a house for. I was inspired by a modern design on a Kenyan home builder's website. Since Kesse is a scientist, I filled the house with plants, gems, insects and other natural collectables. For the color scheme, I used black (his favorite color), pops of red and green (black, red and green are on the flag of Kenya), and bold patterns.

HEREENTRY DETAILS: Renowned violinist Ya Yuèzhèng was looking for a house that allows him to practice his craft. I created a combination of mid-century architecture with hues of yellow and red to reflect his country of birth. The house features a music room in the basement with sunken gardens, and there is a place where family members can offer respect to their ancestors.

Iris BendENTRY DETAILS: Designed for Aussie Chloe Foster (Art Lover, Lover of the Outdoors and Active) inspired by an Australian Beach Home floorplan. This three bedroom, 3 bathroom home has everything an active, aspiring painter needs, an art studio, a swimming pool, lots of outdoor spaces, including an alfresco dining area and several balconies.
(Note to judges: Not all the artwork has been included in the final upload, as Chloe is a level 10 painter and a number of her works were masterpieces that inflated the cost of the home by quite a margin. I understand if this disqualifies my entry, but wanted to make you aware.)
