Clutter
Some people may like the look of trinkets in every corner but often times, a space filled with too many odds and ends leads to a feeling of chaos. A space filled with simply too much stuff, no matter how attractive they may be, can leave a person feeling disorganized and unable to think as clearly. Some people prefer a minimalist look because of this very reason. The clean lines and surfaces leaves them feeling organized, uplifted, and ready to take on their day to the fullest. But not every home has to have a minimalist look to uplift your sprits and help you feel organized. You just need to figure out the amount of furniture and other pieces that feels comfortable for you, and don’t be afraid to edit.

Colors
Psychologists have known for awhile now that different colors have the power to influence our feelings and moods. The science has been well established and even advertisers and product manufacturers use colors to influence consumers. In a home, different colors in paint, furniture, art and other decorative items can illicit certain moods. For instance, blue can help bring on peace, calm, tranquility, and help bring in a sense of cleanliness. For that reason, people may choose to incorporate more blue color into a bathroom, bedroom or living room where a calming, relaxing environment is desired. Red or orange on the other hand are known to help raise energy and is associated with strength and passion. That’s why people choose these colors for their home offices or, sometimes, kitchen. Yellow can brighten up a space and induce feelings of joy and happiness.

Photos and memories
Nothing can improve mood better than happy memories and meaningful keepsakes. That is why an interior design of a home that incorporates personal touches and remind people of happy memories and the people they love can have the power to substantially improve a person’s mood. Meaningful photos should be incorporated into a space using stylish frames. Other important items collected from special vacations or passed down from family members shouldn’t just be on display, but their layout should be well planned and should fit well in the space to prevent the feeling of clutter. Items don’t have to be obvious. For instance, a very small jar of sand from your favorite beach placed in your bathroom can help make your mornings a little bit easier. Incorporating little touches that you love into your space makes your home feel less like a hotel room and more like a personal sanctuary, which is sure to lift your mood no matter what.

One Menerung is a new luxury condominium in Bangsar. The first thought that comes to Bangsar was its fully developed area with almost no space areas to spare for another high rise or two. But despite of the fill-ups, Bandar Raya Development (BRDB) have managed to get an 8-acre land to build one of the most luxurious and impressive condominiums in the area.

One Menerung is surrounded by 70s and 80s landed residential, including bungalows and huge double storey links, and its almost S-shaped building fits beautifully among them. This prominent building has gained favors from most investors and buyers with tons of great reviews to go along with it. There is already a sum on how to describe One Menerung – great location, beautiful scenery, awesome architecture and interior designing.

Facilities wise, there are swimming pools, sauna, sun deck, function room, gym, dance studio, tennis courts, squash courts, barbecue area, children’s play area and other amenities, all mostly on the ground floor. Block D, E and F with the pool and clubhouse in the foreground. Fully and exclusively finished with hardly any flaws, the units as said earlier are super large with prices that tallies well with what the buyer get.

Each units are entitled with 3 parking spaces and larger units are given a few more parking bays to suit their size. It was said that One Menerung has some cross marketing deal with Bangsar Shopping Centre (BSC), the currently expanded iconic landmark of Bangsar. That is good to hear, with combination like that, it will boost up the visibility of One Menerung at the same time, the patrons of BSC are mostly the target markets One Menerung are looking for – foreigners.

The Avare is a super luxurious condominium offering 6-star living style in the heart of Kuala Lumpur City Centre (KLCC). It is a joint-venture project between TM Facilities a Telekom Malaysia’s wholly owned subsidiary) with Magna Prima.

Elegantly designed with only two units per floor forming a butterfly shape, The Avare is also the first condominium in Malaysia having glass curtain walls with stainless sunshades and trims. These features allow its residents to enjoy a 180° of panoramic city view from each of its unit, and even 360° view of the iconic Petronas Twin Towers, the Royal Selangor Golf Club, and the city skyline if they buy two units on the same floor.

Originally priced by the developer at RM3.1 mil to RM8 mil, The Avare was obviously targeted for wealthy buyers. However, despite of the high selling prices, more than half (or 45 units) were sold during its soft-launched in May 2005 alone, including the two penthouses that come with private pools. All units were subsequently sold out in October 2007, far before its then estimated completion date in 2009. The buyers were mostly foreigners, including Singaporeans, Hong Kongers, Indonesians and Americans, while Malaysians made up about 40 per cent of the buyers.
