From the blue entry door to the purple loo door, Radhika has painted her doors in different vibrant colours. She says, "My teacher in school would paint her fans in different colours, and I wanted to do something similar. If someone asks me 'Can I use your bathroom', I go 'purple door’.” Likewise her walls too are in different colours—while kitchen wall is done up in blue, her guest room walls are done up in a bright yellow shade.

She also reveals that she has kept some pieces of furniture that belonged to her grandmother and parents. There’s a wooden chair that she concedes reminds her of her grandmother and another striped chair that brightens up a corner of the house was the first furniture that she purchased with her money, so it holds a special place in her heart.
