There is so much more to the American great Serena Williams than just tennis. Being a 23 time Grand Slam winner, she is also an entrepreneur, philanthropist, and creatively intelligent individual. In a conversation, the American revealed insights on her properties in L.A, Paris, and the latest in Miami, Florida.

Committed to play in the upcoming 2021 Australian Open, Williams is currently decorating her new home in Florida. She will reportedly have to travel via chartered flights to Melbourne Park between January 15 and 17. Her last Grand Slam title came in the same tournament back in 2017.

Contrary to her full-throttle playing style, the American has a varied mindset when it comes to house decoration. To describe her style, Williams answered with examples of her own residences.

“It changes from house to house. My house in L.A. is traditional with classic furniture and modern hints. I had an apartment in Paris, and it was more just about color blocking. I don’t have one particular style. Now that I’m in Florida and building a house, it’s supermodern but livable. So, it’s discovering that balance,” Serena said.

Winning 3 Olympic gold medals in doubles together, Serena and Venus are one of the most influential pair in tennis history.

Williams elaborated, “Not being afraid to have something just totally different, unexpected, or whimsical. For example, we had this pillar that we couldn’t move. So, we used it and made it a stand-out piece, with light coming from the top of it. It’s so amazing,” about the home-designing experience with her sister.
