Long way to a perfect life
According to Anita Tsoi, when she and her husband first came to the site located near the town of Lobnya, she was struck by the unique natural energy of the area. A large field, open from all sides, surrounded by forests and lakes, literally charmed the singer. She was not even embarrassed by the lack of running water, electricity and sewerage. Another plus was the remoteness from transport highways, so the family almost immediately decided to buy land.
Anita Tsoi values family traditions very much, she initially wanted to live closer to her parents.
She came up with a great idea ─ to build as many as four houses around the perimeter of the site, she gave each of them original names:
- a master house for a spouse;
- the geisha house - Anita Tsoi's own mansion;
- house-mother-in-law - for the husband's mother;
- house-mother-in-law, Anita's mother lives in it and a son who is almost constantly abroad stays.
The family gathers for family breakfasts, the rest of the time everyone goes about their business, not bothering each other at all.
New house in the ashes
Anita Tsoi built the first estate in the style of a Russian hut made of natural wood. The mansion was built for 6 years. Unfortunately, the very next day after the resettlement, it burned to the ground, and the reason for this was an incorrectly designed fireplace. When the firemen arrived, there was nothing to extinguish, it is good that people were not injured.
After grieving a little, the singer began to build a new estate, however, the family refused the tree and chose brick. All the shortcomings of the old house were taken into account, and in just a year and a half a small house grew. By the way, Anita Tsoi was not very upset after the fire, because, according to Korean belief, if you build a new mansion on the site of the ashes, the owners will have a long and happy life.
Cozy atmosphere of the music lounge
The living room is traditionally located on the ground floor, Anita designed the interior in an oriental style with an abundance of animal skins on the floor and many decorative figurines. The most environmentally friendly coating was chosen for the floor - natural wood parquet boardlaid diagonally across the room. The walls were painted with white paint and decorated with fabric panels, on which the singer placed a collection of daggers and sabers. The main accent of the living room was electric fireplace finished with natural stone and clinker tiles.
Billiard room - a place for relaxation
For meetings with friends in a warmer atmosphere, we set up another room on the second floor. It is divided into three zones: two for relaxing and one for playing billiards. They put small sofas here and soft armchairs with plain upholstery. Spectacular table lamps and floor lamps in oriental style with fabric shades create a romantic mood and give the room a special cosiness.
Panoramic glazing allows maximum natural light to pass through. They decided not to decorate the window with curtains, instead they installed next to transparent glass partition and filled the space with pots with fresh flowers. An abundance of wooden sculptures and floral print cushions act as decorative elements of the living room.
For the walls in the recreation area, we chose wallpaper with floral ornaments in a warm yellow shade, they are effectively illuminated by sconces with matte shades and golden elements. They blend beautifully with the wood paneling used to decorate the rest of the room. For tea ceremonies and board games, Anita chose a low table made of natural stone.
Anita Tsoi's bedroom
The singer's bedroom is located on the second floor; the windows offer a wonderful view of the picturesque nature. We chose snow-white paint for the walls, it visually enlarges a small room. Natural stone creates the illusion of a medieval castle. The central place is occupied by a bed with a low headboard, trimmed with dark leather.
Anita Tsoi collects figurines of dogs and handmade dolls, for which there is a lot of space in the bedroom. During her tours, the singer always visits flea markets in search of rarities, in addition, fans and close friends give her unique crafts.

House for mom
All members of Anita Tsoi's family are very freedom-loving, therefore, in order to avoid disputes and misunderstandings, she decided for everyone to build their own house. In addition, it helped to prevent disputes between several housewives in the kitchen. Often, the singer independently prepares food for the whole family and delivers it to her mother, mother-in-law and spouse, if possible, everyone gathers at the same table.
Mom's house is arranged by analogy with Anita's mansion, with the exception of a living room with a second light and a winter garden on a closed terrace. Oriental motives are used as decor, the main decoration is made of natural materials.

Conclusion
Despite the small size of the houses, everything in them is quite compact and functionally thought out. The whole family can visit each other at any convenient time. The only thing is that Anita never lets anyone into her den, as she calls the studio and rehearsal room in which she writes music and learns the repertoire.
