Tell us a little (or a lot) about your home and the people who live there:I moved frommy old apartmentinto this one at the beginning of the pandemic in search of more space. The place has lots of windows and gets a ton of light at all times of the day, which has been great for my plants and my overall mood during this time.

I grew up in India, and you see elements of my culture in my apartment. For example, the art in the hallway is by an Indian artist, and the prints in my dining room are sourced from India. I think our homes are an extension of who we are. It not only reflects our personal style but where we are in life and where we come from.

Describe your home’s style in 5 words or less:Blend of mid-century modern and Scandinavian
