About Me

 I write this blog very sincerely and you can expect me to always be very transparent with you. I will not pretend or be pretentious. This is a form of extending the way I see the world of Design, the way I see the world around me and experiencing the world I am discovering every day.

I was born in Brazil and lived there my whole childhood. I moved to Canada by myself without knowing how to speak any English. That was more than 10 years ago and this place has become home for me. But I still miss my family, since we’re very close. I am married and have three children. My family is what keeps me strong.

I love art and music. I love to talk to interesting and smart people, to travel, paint, dance and I love to day-dream about the gorgeous houses  I find online.  I love to read to my kids and see them grow every day. I love when my kids and I have interesting conversation, even at their young age. I love birds, bridges and “brigadeiros” (brazilian dessert). I love my husband. I also love my family back in Brazil and they know that even being so far away I am still theirs. I love God, Who helps me with my dreams, Who helps me grow, Who helps me be wise enough to contribute back to all the love I receive, Who gives me all the people I need and Who gives me Love to make me keep Loving… because nothing turns beautiful without “LOVE”.

Love is the key for the Beautiful.

I’ve started this blog to share not only one of my biggest passions, which is Interior Design, but also to learn from my readers. I see this as a strong relationship where we share each day by having a couple of minutes dreaming and talking about the topics of the day.

I hope you keep coming back, because you’re the reason I prepare every single post featured here.

Thank you for your friendship.

Luciane.

    Parabéns pelo site! Hoje em dia buscamos praticidade, beleza e conforto, nas sugestões apresentadas no site “Home Bunch” encontramos tudo isso e muito mais. Aproveitando a oportunidade gostaria de sugestões para tapete na sala de jantar. Parede gelo e branca com grafiato e a mesa com as cadeiras são de madeira avermelhada, que cor devo usar para o tapete?
    Obrigada.

    Hi,
    I’m happy to have found your blog and look forward to spending time searching through it. Just want to mention that I see “dining room” misspelled quite often… All the best :-)

  11. Finally made it over here for a visit, and very glad that I did. I love house porn and can’t get enough of it!

    Dear Luciane,
    this is my second try to leave a comment…I hope, I can remind of all this what I wrote…I guess, I made a mistake by “submitting the comment”!
    So…first of all thank you for your sweet comment on my blogsite! :)
    It`s always an adventure finding out who this new wonderful person is, which found it`s way to my little virtual world! I love the thought that somebody from very far away is sending me a note, a thought, something to laugh about….so nice!So…thank you very much for that!
    As I was reading your text about yourself, I thougth, we are just alike in so many things.
    Well, I would be glad to hear from you again and I really like your website! :)
    Have a wonderful last week in this november!
    Beate :) XOXO

    PS: Please excuse my english, if I made mistakes. It is not my mother tongue, unfortunately…

  13. Dear Beate,

    I am so glad you figured out how send me a comment, because you’ve made my day with your words. I must say that there’s no other reason to me to do this blog besides meeting people like you, people that are here to have fun and to get to know each other.

    By the way, English isn’t my first language neither and I do make mistakes but I am doing my best right now, and guess what, even writers make mistakes (they have editors to help them), and not having a perfect English will not stop me to express myself and be out there to meet people like you. Am I wrong?

    Thank you so much for coming here and we’ll keep in touch, ok?

  17. Hi Luciane,
    Thank you so much for stopping by my blog! It is so great to meet a fellow Maritimer, indeed, and interesting that Canada is not my native country either (I was born in Northern Ireland). Your blog looks wonderful and I am enjoying poking around and reading some of your posts.
    Have a wonderful Christmas season,
    Linda
