STRATA West Apartment How did you make your apartment, home?: My husband and I picked pieces that remind us of places we have been around the world. Some pieces are actually things we bought on vacation. It’s very cozy! A lot of neutral colors and lots of plants 🙂

What is one thing you love about STRATA that most people haven’t heard of?: I think it’s pretty cool that we have our own private elevator to Rite Aid lol. We don’t even have to leave the building when we need something.
