Hey, dear.

I am so happy you're here.

Welcome to my home.

Come on in.

I'm so excited to have you guys here in my dream home.

I was working with my designer,

Joseph Mansoor, for almost two years to create this oasis that I love more than life.

It's my dream dream home i recently got married

and it was amazing

and i was able to do it in this house the

idea of like christening the home with all of my loved ones

and my friends and everyone was so exciting

so i will show you where we hosted our welcome dinner and farewell brunch

this is the loggia i didn't even know the word until joseph designed it

so this is very exciting what we did with the flooring

is we kind of brought it all the way out

because we love like an indoor outdoor kind of experience

and then you'll see throughout joseph was really really good at bringing in like soft colors

that are more so even like felt than seen so joseph just made a custom color.

It doesn't have a name,

so I'm going to name it Architectural Digest.

This is your color.

And we love it so much because it kind of feels like when we're in here,

it kind of feels like we still see sky, weirdly.

All of my friends helped me pull off the farewell brunch and the welcome brunch and honestly the wedding.

But by the end of the farewell brunch,

my friends were so exhausted from working.

They all just like passed out on this couch.

There was like a couple here,

a couple here, a couple here.

So weirdly, this is also a sleeping space if you want it to be.

So these are my beautiful shears.

I'm obsessed with them.

I didn't even know you were allowed to put shears outside.

When Joseph was designing these and bringing me swatches,

I instantly was like, oh,

this one, this one, I want this one.

What is it called?

And he's like, turn it over.

and I turned it over.

It's called Lana.

So like actually called Lana.

So this is the Lana Shear and I'm Lana.

I just think they're so grand and so, so beautiful.

This is my beautiful, beautiful outdoor space.

At the farewell brunch and the welcome dinner,

we had almost a hundred people here.

We had set up all these beautiful,

beautiful tables and it absolutely held all these people, which is great.

All right, we are now in my kitchen.

This really is where I spend the most time.

I love to cook.

I love to host.

I love to have like a game night.

And I just really, really,

really wanted like a space that could accommodate for all of that.

These countertops, Joseph and I went to so many slab yards and we found this beautiful,

beautiful Casper White.

I'm kind of specific and I don't love too much veining.

we honed and leathered it i did not know what honed or leather meant until this experience

but the leathering is really cool

because they like i guess they just kind of whip it a little

and then it gives this amazing soft texture like lived in

texture i kid you not anytime anyone comes to my house the

and they come to the kitchen the first thing they do is they like lay their whole body on it.

And they like rub themselves all over the countertops.

It is you know kind of alarming

and probably not sanitary however i'm like very deeply honored i've

never had a pot filler i watch all the videos on at where they all have pop pillars

and i'm like and i cook pasta every night every night i eat a noodle

and i've been so used to like carrying the pot this changes everything You go bam,

bam, bam, put it in,

and I'm obsessed with it.

So this is my family room.

I wasn't quite sure if my dream sofa could be dog-friendly,

and Joseph had just the most amazing idea to put all of this fabric as indoor-outdoor.

So this is very, like, durable.

We did a lot of,

actually, indoor-outdoor fabrics throughout the home after that.

This is our very, very,

very, very first fabric that we got obsessed with.

But this was very much an inspiration of where we were going to take the rest of the home

when it comes to design.

This is from the fabric is from Claremont.

It is so beautiful.

And Joseph did this gorgeous, like, custom, like, trim.

A lot of what we love is details.

And so there's trim everywhere and all these amazing little details that,

you know, might be overlooked sometimes but they're always felt and they make a huge difference.

I really want to talk about this Paul Ferrante piece.

I'm obsessed with it.

We brought this in and it changed everything,

at least for us, because it brought some like depth

and just like rounded this space that is so light and so airy.

This poor guy, he's going through something.

Look at this diva.

I don't really know what he's doing,

but I kind of love him and he's a great talking piece.

So now I'm going to walk you through this amazing hallway.

100

And then something that Joseph did

101

that just kind of made a huge difference is he put Venetian plaster all over these arches.

102

So the walls feel just incredible.

103

And this is another surface that when my guests come,

104

they rub themselves all over this surface as well.

105

So like just so you know you guys apparently people are just going at it in my home

106

And that's okay because we work very hard to create a really nice space This is my living room.

107

This is an enormous fire.

108

It's crackling a lot.

109

So if you hear a little That's that it's Really big.

110

I did not think it was gonna be that big.

111

Wow This is a piece by Sarah Awad.

112

We have a lot of creams and beautiful kind of like softer like creams and whites,

113

tones throughout the home.

114

But we do really, really love the idea of playing with color.

115

And so this we just fell in love with and I'm obsessed with these three women.

116

I identify the most with her.

117

She's all, and I think she's so cute.

118

Sometimes like if I'm feeling down,

119

I'll come in here And I'm just instantly filled with gratitude

120

because I never thought that I would be fortunate enough to have a space as beautiful as this.

121

And so it's a big mood lifter when I'm in here.

122

And my calves are on fire from standing so close to the fire.

123

So I'm gonna move a little.

124

Okay, over here, I just wanted to quickly touch on my drapes.

125

I'm obsessed with this.

126

Joseph added this gorgeous little trim.

127

I said earlier in the video that we're obsessed with trim.

128

So there's trim everywhere.

129

And I just feel like it makes such a difference.

130

It pulls the entire room together.

131

Okay, welcome to my office slash library room room.

132

I am a big, big, big reader.

133

And I asked Joseph, is there a way that we can display my book collection?

134

So he custom built this amazing, amazing cabinetry situation.

135

This piece.

136

So I was adopted from Vietnam and my dad used to write for the Chicago Tribune.

137

And for the Christmas edition,

138

my dad, they asked, would you be willing to share your adoption story?

139

So he said, of course.

140

So he wrote my adoption story

141

and we got to be on the cover of the Chicago Tribune magazine in December 21st, 1997.

142

That's my brother.

143

That's me.

144

That's my mom.

145

And that's my dad.

146

And I love this so much.

147

It makes me emotional.

148

This is my beautiful family.

149

So this is really important.

150

It's inspiring.

151

It's like when I work here and I look at that,

152

I'm reminded of like why I want to work so hard because family is important.

153

And I really hope that I can be half as amazing as them.

154

So they're a big inspiration to me.

155

And then I was obsessed with the idea of a really sculptural desk.

156

And I went to Joseph.

157

I said, Joseph, okay, I think we need like a really cool sculptural kind of piece in the center of this room.

158

I feel powerful.

159

I feel about my business on this desk.

160

Could you imagine you're zooming and I'm like this?

161

Unmute.

162

Hi.

163

Such a vibe.

164

i've been waiting to do this the double doors i'm obsessed

165

this is my primary bedroom it is my dream dream dream dream bedroom i've been bringing it up a ton

166

but i just love you know things that feel so nice and so like the sensory experience is really,

167

really important to me.

168

And I think we kind of nailed it with this linen wallpaper.

169

And it's another place where people do stroke it.

170

And I wish they wouldn't because it is linen and it's not necessarily easy to clean,

171

but we love, love this.

172

When I was prepping for the wedding,

173

I did like a bridesmaids party where we tried on all the dresses and we did like a fitting party.

174

So I had the tailor come in and fit everything.

175

They're all hanging out here.

176

They're draping their things on here.

177

They're laying on the floor.

178

So this primary weirdly became like our most communal space, which is amazing.

179

And I welcome it.

180

As long as you have good energy, I welcome it.

181

And now I must lead you to my pride and joy.

182

This is my sitting room.

183

When I'm in here, it takes my breath away.

184

I said, Joseph, you know that feeling when you're under the covers and like the sun is streaming through the sheet

185

and you're like cozy and you're happy.

186

I want to feel that feeling in the sitting room.

187

And he said, say less.

188

Anthony and I actually got engaged in Mexico like three and a half years ago or something like that.

189

And in our hotel room, there was a fireplace.

190

So every single night we would light the fireplace and then go to sleep like with the crackling fire.

191

And it was like the most delicious, comforting like sleep ever.

192

So we have a fireplace in the sitting room and it's gorgeous.

193

And then this actually is,

194

we had a tiny, tiny bit of a leftover slab from the kitchen countertops and it fit perfectly.

195

So we put it on here and I just love that little detail.

196

All right, so now I'm going to take you in to my primary bathroom.

197

Another double door moment.

198

I love it.

199

I'm obsessed.

200

These botanicals, my mom, she had very similar botanicals in our family home growing up.

201

And so we found these at a flea market that really remind me of my mom's art,

202

which I love and I love her and I miss her.

203

and so we thought that this would be the perfect place to put them

204

so that like when it's tub time I can just kind of gaze at these beautiful dainty botanicals

205

and feel like I'm closer to my mom.

206

Lastly I had told Joseph that I'm obsessed with the color turquoise

207

and he was like Lana like turquoise might not be like the vibe of the home

208

and I said but Joseph you don't understand and so He's like,

209

don't worry, I'll find a way.

210

And so he brought in my love of turquoise into,

211

again, the beautiful trim detailing into our drapery.

212

And I got my turquoise.

213

This is my glam room.

214

I told Joseph, I said,

215

Joseph, I want a glam room that is just the most soft,

216

girly, pink, luxe, Glam Room.

217

It took us a very long time to find our pink,

218

and so Joseph did a custom pink.

219

In a Glam Room, you're getting ready,

220

getting your hair and makeup done, whatever.

221

You take a lot of photos,

222

and so we wanted to pick a color for the walls that would be complementary to my skin tone and my complexion,

223

and so that's also one of the reasons why we kind of made the custom pink,

224

and I love it.

225

And then Joseph also did these amazing silk drapery with this soft scallop detail that runs down.

226

And then I need to show you this.

227

This is a work of art.

228

Joseph designed this custom himself.

229

This is Fortuny fabric.

230

It is hand dyed, which is really, really cool.

231

Every little bit is a little bit different.

232

Everything is a little bit just like has its own like personality

233

and flavor but then we open her up

234

and this is our three-way mirror

235

that i love this is like little lana's dream here we do loads

236

and loads of fittings and

237

so we can see what we like see what we don't like get things tailored

238

and he just made it a work of art

239

and we added this amazing trim that i love are you seeing a theme we love the trim And typically,

240

if you're looking for me, I'm probably in here.

241

All right, AD, it was so much fun hanging out with you and an absolute joy showing you my home.

242

But it's now time for you to leave.

243

Gotta go.

244

Bye.

245

Bye-bye.

246

247

Okay, bye!

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
