TITAN ARCHITECT Chats Sims, therapy and Modern Building With Maria Thank you again for the opportunity to get to know a little more about the person behind the Michael Modish brand. To begin with, please introduce yourself and tell us a little about your hobbies, interests or anything you would like to share with the community which cannot be seen from your social media accounts or website (something special behind the scenes?). Some of my earlier followers would be able to tell you that I am a bit of a plant Dad. I am obsessed with indoor plants, gardening, and the idea of sustainable living. I find therapy in being in my garden and spending most weekends trying to relax at home. My professional career as a Medical Scientist comes with a lot of stress and long hours, so playing The Sims and being amongst my plant babies are a huge part of my own therapy. Your Instagram account features predominantly modern to ultramodern builds, I have also noticed

you like working with squares as your main to-go shape for your builds, whether rooms, buildings, or decoration. Where do you get the inspiration and how did you define your go-to style? I find that squares are such easy, convenient, and symmetrical shapes to work with. My mind can get so cluttered and busy, so seeing simple, minimal, clean, and symmetrical shapes and lines in architecture really appeals to my eyes and influences my design aesthetic. I love the idea of having minimal visual distractions, bringing focus back to the relationships of the people living in a space, being in the moment and only possessing items that bring you the most joy and happiness.
