This Cute and Sunny Condo Unit Brings Back Childhood Memories

The home is the special place where we feel most comfortable to do the things we love. Whether it’s binge-watching a favorite show, belting out tunes, or playing with an old toy collection—we can do it all without fear and worry. In designing this 24sqm, one-bedroom unit in Tagaytay, the owners tapped into the wonders of childhood. Brice and Brian, RL readers and design enthusiasts, worked with yellow and charming elements to create a look that kids and kids-at-heart will love. “We opted for a bright yellow theme to create a cheerful vibe and just like in our first home, we displayed a quote that says ‘Think Happy Thoughts' to inspire our guests to create happy memories,” shares Brian.

The unit is charming and comfortable, a place where guests can chill, read books, sleep to their hearts’ content, and relish the cool breeze of Tagaytay. “Real Living inspired us and taught us that everything is possible even in a limited space. We designed the space by ourselves and we’re thankful that everything fell into place,” adds Brian. Also known as Big Bear Tagaytay (yes, you can rent it on Airbnb), the condo features cute and cuddly teddy bears as accent pieces. It is a home away from home that will bring out the kid in you. “[We believe that] no one is too old for a teddy bear. There are giant teddy bears in the unit that will give guests a warm hug,” shares Brian.
