"I was obsessed with the process of making this home. I’d jump off a plane from a tournament and go straight to the work site or to the architect’s office or to a kitchen manufacturer. This was my project, and I wasn’t going to delegate any part of it. I was inspired by Japanese architecture and minimalist aesthetics. I didn’t grow up with lots of stuff around. For me, uncluttered means healthy. If you don’t use something, you don’t need it," Sharapova said.

Sharapova is a successful businesswoman with investments in UFC, Tonal, Clio Snacks, and others. She launched her own confectionery brand, Sugarpova, in 2012 and reached notable success with the brand.
