As we near the final chapter of getting our Dream Home ready to hand over to one incredibly lucky Top Billing viewer, we enter the exciting stage of choosing the colours and furniture!
This week on Top Billing Aidan meets with Adam Court from Okha & Antoni Associates and Simon Bray of Private Property to find out more about why we have decided to go with a neutral colour scheme. Simon then shares a fantastic development they have created on www.privateproperty.co.za which allows you to experiment with the colours in the Dream Home to see how the use of colour effects the look and feel of a home.
We go in search of fantastic local designers to create the bar stools and lamps for the Dream Home. And as we know that we will be handing over the apartment keys to one of you - we leave the final choice in your hands!
To have your say and cast your vote simply go onto the Top Billing competition page at www.privateproperty.co.za/topbillingand click the 'LIKE' button on your favourite bar stool and lamp. The items with the most likes will be chosen to form part of the designer decor in the Dream Home!
