2/10Bedroom
Interior decorator Matthew Cane, who designed Cassandra's new home, says, "Cassandra is a wellness and light coach and healthy eating chef. She meditates on a daily basis, loves traveling and culture and has an obsession with Paris so we wanted to bring all of these elements into the room's design. We added touches of golds, silver, and natural elements, such as woods and metals to create a zen atmosphere. It all works with her teal walls!"

Cassandra's designated working area is organized and very on-theme with the rest of her room.

Matthew says, "We designed a fun and creative working space for her to write her upcoming book, her blog, and also create videos for her youtube page."

6/10A Good Night's Sleep
"I love that we were able to create a space that allowed for Cassandra to meditate and zen out," says Matthew.
7/10Personal Touches
He continues: "We designed an inviting bed with personal elements all around it so she can envision positives and sleep with happy thoughts."
8/10The View
"Having focal points across the rooms to rest your eyes from the screen is called the "20/20/20" rule: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away, for 20 seconds. This allows your eyes to readjust, focus, and improves your eye health," says Matthew.
9/10Focus is Key
"Creating focal points such as the mixed media wall above Cassandra beds, the "Champagne Bubbles" wall across the room, and reflective/colorful mediation spot, as well as a soothing and cohesive color palette all around, allow for this to be obtained," says Matthew.
10/10Zoning Out
And one of Matthews favorite settings in the home? "I love the meditation corner we designed! I wanted Cassandra to have a spot in her room where she could be totally zen, comfortable, meditate, hang inspirational images and be inspired," he says.
