Linda Ley welcomes us into her modern and eclectic abode where Eastern and Western influences meet
Inside Linda Ley’s home, you’ll find that the neutral-toned walls allow her to play around with the decor. Her choices are reminiscent of both Eastern and Western styles, each piece taken from both travel destinations and top brands in the country to create this eclectic space.

As a homemaker, Ley also decorates with functionality and style in mind. Given her fine taste and exquisite style, she’s able to seamlessly blend luxury with comfort. For instance, indoor plants are placed next to large glass doors and windows that show a view of the garden.
But there’s more to see and admire about this modern residence—from precious artworks to a talking parrot.
What was the inspiration behind the design of your home?
We took inspiration from the home of our architect and interior designer, Chito Antonio. He introduced to us the Modern Asian home with an Eastern x Western flair—a look that’s warm and welcoming. With a colour palette of neutrals such as white and beige, it’s simple yet elegant and serves as a nice background for accent pieces such as paintings, sculptures and statement accessories to stand out.
What are your favourite spots in your home and why?
The kitchen and the living room. Both areas are used for entertaining—which I love! The kitchen has an island counter that I style when hosting parties. Both areas have quality sound systems to help set the mood. The living room is the heart of our home. It is where I spend a lot of time after my daily chores. I enjoy sipping tea or coffee in a corner overlooking the garden. Lush greenery gives me a sense of tranquillity and peace.
