"What's your favourite colour?"
Dumb question, right?
When someone asked me this question, from an early age, I answered immediately, without any hesitation
"It's WHITE"
I answered with enthusiasm, because I was proud of the choice I had made, because it was not for everyone to choose that answer, many of my schoolmates answered
"LIGHT BLUE"
…or…
"PINK"
that's because I was happy not to be like all the other sheep in the flock
I was really proud of myself
…PRIDE…
…ENTHUSIASM…
…DIVERSITY…
Here are the first things that they killed of me!
WHITE is not the right answer to give!
If you are a boy you have to say "BLUE"
... but I don't like blue ...
Why should I say blue?
Perhaps to be like the others ... one sheep among many ...
Yes, I shouldn't have distinguished myself.
…APPROVAL…
In fact… I have adapted
…PERHAPS…
White is the lightest colour and is achromatic, because it reflects and scatters all visible wavelengths of light; that's why it's commonly said that white is given by the "combination of all colours". Is the colour of perfection, goodness, honesty, cleanliness, beginning, newness, neutrality and exactness.
I live in a loft in Shinjuku, not far from the office.
I chose this apartment for this too.
The closer I'm to the office, the fewer people I will meet along the way, both in the morning when I go to work, and in the evening, when I return, on foot as on the subway.
The fewer people I meet, the less panic attacks I have, the better I feel.
Another reason why I chose it's that it's on the top floor and it's the only apartment on that floor, which is to say that I don't have to deal with annoying and nagging neighbours.
I chose it because it's bright, in fact large windows illuminate both floors.
I chose it because it's white ... ICE WHITE ... my favourite
The house is not even that big, but all in all functional to my needs, and there are not a few.
... above all it satisfies the most important of all:
SPACE.
Space is as vital to me, as the air I breathe and the water that purifies me, because I need MY only space where TO BE
... MY OWN SPACE…
…ONLY MINE ...
The first floor is a large open space where the living room is one with the kitchen, perfectly equipped, close to the windows, so in the morning when I sip my coffee, I can watch the sun rise over the city, and in the evening when I cook dinner, sipping a good wine, I can look at the dazzling lights of the city, that never sleeps, at my feet
... and it's not that bad ...
After all, there is a bathroom and a large library, not the only one, which separates the rest of the house from my small study. Between the bookcase and the bathroom there is a staircase which leads up to the bedroom, the walk-in closet and another small bathroom.
The style of the furniture is minimal and total white
The only colourful note is a small white and blue box on the bedside table.
…inside…
The happiness pill.
This is my tiny world where, after playing for a few hours a part written for me on a script by a unknown director, I can finally be MYSELF
...I HAVE CHOSEN IT FOR THIS!
