One of the many fantastic items at the Expo is this home by Glas Houses located on Hope 8. I will be covering different parts of this home in a series of posts so you can get a feel for some of the wonderful designers that I have decorated the interior with. But first, about this great home! 

Phedra is a new release making its debut at the Home & Garden Expo this year.  Phedra is a Mid Century Modern with an open floor layout and a rather interesting divider between the bedroom and the sunken living room.  In addition to the bedroom and living area, there is a dining area, kitchen, and a room that can be used as an office, bathroom, or second (small) bedroom. It is 97 Land impact and measures 29 x 22.  Phedra is a 100% RFL donation item.  

The first room we will enter will be the living room where two spunky basset hounds are playing. Check post #2 HERE
