HOMESTORY – Ethno x Glam at Saina’s & Manuel’s Home

Today, the successful entrepreneur and the well-known actor invited us to visit them at their very own feel-good place – located in the middle of Munich’s hip district Neuhausen, as lively as Saina and Manuel themselves.

“Creative, colorful, multifaceted and with plenty of space for different cultural influences – that’s us, and that’s how we want our home to be (in which, by the way, we also spend quite some time working),” Saina and Manuel were wishing during the first meeting with our interior design experts. “And there has to be plenty of space for pictures, books, accessories and our large jewelry collection – we love details!”

Already in the entrance area, we are greeted by an eclectic mix of styles of modern European furniture design, muted color palette and Middle Eastern or Asian aesthetics. A real eye-catcher and Manuel’s favorite: the glamorous crown tail fish in bright gold.

Exceptional, noble and with a great feel-good factor. The velvet looks and natural colors of the dining chairs and corner sofa radiate an optical warmth and thus form a successful contrast to the glass surfaces and shimmering gold accents of the dining table and couch table.

“Our bedroom is so fancy!” Not only the living room, but also the bedroom has become particularly exquisite, detailed and therefore very authentic for the two. “That’s super important to us,” says the ex-Berlin resident with a laugh, “after all, this is where we spend the most time!”

The absolute highlight and one of the reasons why Saina and Manuel fell in love with their 4-room apartment in an old building is the light-flooded creative room. “I love working here, so most of the time I am here and not in the office anymore,” Manuel tells us.

Today it may be still a bit fresh outside… but the balcony of the creative couple is a wonderful place to watch the bustling neighborhood while hanging out in comfy colorful deck chairs.
