What as a perfect home for a Leo ?

 Have you noticed that some houses immediately appeal to you, while others leave you indifferent? Your astrological sign may be the reason why.

Cancerians, with their tender hearts, need a protective, cocoon-like interior, while Gemini, always on the go, will look for a space that can keep up with their changing interests. As for Leos, they want a place where they feel like the centre of attention. As Leo season (23 July to 22 August) begins, the question arises: how can you create the ideal home for this sun sign?

"Leo needs a space that goes beyond the ordinary,’ says Anthony Perrotta, astrologer and interior designer in Providence, Rhode Island. ‘They like to feel like the centre of attention, so an environment that gives them that opportunity is perfect."

A European-style residence in Key Biscayne, South Florida, perfectly illustrates the energy of the main character that defines Leo. Numerous outdoor spaces are ideal for entertaining, with a swimming pool, adjoining terrace and a large balcony on the second floor. Even the bridge leading to the pontoon is an eye-catching feature.

In Dubai, an ultra-luxurious three-bedroom apartment in the Waldorf Astoria offers everything a Leo could wish for: city views, high ceilings and generous communal spaces. Located in the vibrant DFIC district, the apartment features floor-to-ceiling windows and chandeliers that reflect light onto stained glass ceilings. The 24-hour concierge service allows the Leo to stay in control, which perfectly suits their regal nature.

Ruled by the Sun, the Leo is a force of nature. A born leader, they enjoy taking risks and trust their intuition. Leos are particularly drawn to materials that evoke luxury, such as crystal, engraved glass, or precious silks.

On the shores of Lake Annecy, an exceptional villa offers Leo everything he is looking for: abundant natural light, generous volumes and majestic ceilings. Its large bay windows and open-plan rooms create a fluid and spacious setting, ideal for moving around and expressing oneself. The vast terraces, infinity pool and refined finishes reflect the boldness and elegance characteristic of this solar sign, which loves to entertain and shine in an environment that matches its personality.

They are naturally drawn to warm tones and bright colours. ‘They are not afraid of colours or anything that attracts attention,’ Perrotta points out. Luxurious textures and materials are also important, as in the Dubai apartment with its sorbet pink seating and honey-toned walls, making it an ideal residence for this sign.

Ultimately, Leos want a home that allows them to show off. Entertaining guests is a pleasure, but it is also essential that their living space reflects their personality and state of mind. ‘Leo is a sign of playfulness and self-expression, so their home should be a space where they can have fun,’ explains Perrotta. ‘They rule the heart and put their heart into everything they do.’ They want a place they can be proud of, and they are absolutely right to feel that way.
