HOW WOULD YOU DEFINE YOUR PROCESS AT BONITO TO DESIGN A PERFECT HOME THAT TRANSFORMS THE LIVING OF THE RESIDENT ?
GABRIEL : In these days of home quarantine , the value of personal space has become more apparent than ever . House has become more than your personal space , your time with family , it is now your office , school , movie hall and much more — we have incorporated this new normal in our designs . Home office – workstations designed as part of the bedroom , home theater / sound proofed AV room to enjoy a movie experience as good as any theatre , these are just a few examples . I always tell our designers that it is our mission to make people happy .
