From the Lesson Workbook
Welcome to Miles' Manhattan Home
I live in Manhattan, New York, in a little neighbourhood called Nolita.
Having lived in this area as a student, I knew I loved the location, and when the opportunity arose, I jumped at the chance to buy a traditional townhouse.
I originally purchased the property with my sister, and we spent many happy years living here together. When she moved out to get more space for her growing family, the house became a place where I could really let my creativity run wild.
The house is often referred to as my 'Top Hat' house, as I was so influenced by Hollywood's interpretation of New York in the 1930s: a glamorous, fantastical and opulent metropolis – which wasn't quite the reality at the time!

The best adventure. I like all the courses, but my favorite are both Rita Konig interior design courses and Anna Jones. Excellent!
