Hello, I’m Ansu
Your friend in all things interior! Home renovation or interior decorating can be a stressful experience. I’m here to make this very easy and fun for you!
I’m actually a South African actress and writer and have carved a quite successful career in the entertainment industry for the past ten years, but I’ve always loved making a space, home.
I got married in 2022 to the ultimate champion of a man! As someone who recently entered a new season of life and talking to friends who are going through similar transitions, I realised that many people have that need to live in a space they love, a space that is theirs… But just thinking about it is overwhelming, they don’t know where to start and hiring someone to help is just out of the question. That’s something you do when you are older, richer and have the big house in the big estate. Well, I think that’s all lies (putting it lightly).
In 2018, I moved into my first apartment in Linden, Johannesburg. Being the little interior-lover that I am, I immediately wanted to make my space home! Transforming my first flat (let me just say it was rented - so here’s your proof that you can own your space and make it yours, even if it isn’t legitly so). Anyhoo - transforming my first flat made me realise that I do not have to wait until one day when I’m old enough, rich enough or “married enough” to have a space that I love. Life’s too short for you not to feel at home in your own home. So over the course of three years, slowly but surely, room by room, I made my flat my own little first home.
That’s what I want to do for you! I’m here to break down the idea that tells you only future-you can have the house present-you deserves. I truly believe anyone can and should have the space they want and it should not break your brain or your bank.
At heart, I am a storyteller and the story I’m most interested in telling is your home. All good stories are stories that are relatable, real and give you a slice of life. Your home is the place where most of life happens: the joys, challenges, tears, peace, fun, and most importantly, the memories.
Whether it’s your new apartment, new house with your new hubs, or you have your first baby on the way - whatever it is, let’s write your best-selling story together!
All my love and a lot more light!
