Recently, while zhuzhing up my home for a few photo shoots, I found myself moving stools from room to room. One became a plant stand, another a bedside table. I stood on one to adjust a light, then topped another with a stack of books. And as I shuffled them around my apartment, I kept thinking: Why do stools look perfect everywhere? Truly, what a magical, multipurpose piece of furniture it i

They say everything is bigger in Texas, and for designer Shelbie Cox’s clients, that proved to be true—at least as far as their furniture went. When the couple lived in the Lone Star State, they had square footage to fill, so they bought an extra-large sofa. That was fine until they decided to move to New Jersey. Suddenly, their leather sectional barely fit in their new Tudor-style house, the ba

In Renovator’s Notebook, homeowners open up about the nitty-gritty of their remodels: How long it really took; how much it actually cost; what went horribly wrong; and what went wonderfully, serendipitously, it’s-all-worth-it-in-the-end right.   Rooms: Back entry and guest bathroomSize: 40 square feet and 84 square feet, respectivelyYear built: 1905 Total cost: $2,655Timeline: A few

Standing desks have come a long way from the clunky, exposed-metal setups that scream startup culture. Because when workspaces cohabitate with sofas, beds, or a Peloton, design that fits in isn’t a bonus, it’s part of the job. Today’s best versions hide their ergonomic features behind details you’d be more likely to find in a well-designed credenza: fluted wood, marbl

In an Instagram post, the designer shared the one under-$100 gadget that’s made life with a four-legged roommate a whole lot cleaner. “This has changed my life,” Berkus says, holding up the Bissell Little Green Mini, a compact carpet and upholstery cleaner. “I might love this machine as much as I love the puppy—sometimes more, actually.”

As a professional stylist living in New York City, I have to be thoughtful about the products I bring into my home. (There is a very real risk of being buried alive). The objects I use on shoots need to flex across several categories—they must: fit into a wide range of different homes; be useful in multiple rooms; and work alongside my one-of-a kind items or vintage finds. It’s always a bo

For a New York–based couple with two children away at college, finding a second home in Miami was less about acquiring another address than creating a place where their family could gather more intentionally. When they came across a 1940s Mediterranean Revival design by architect Russell Pancoast, they immediately saw something worth preserving. In a neighborhood where older houses are frequentl

When Megan Moncrief and her family moved into their St. Petersburg, Florida, home in 2020, the laundry-mudroom skyrocketed to the top of her must-fix list. They almost exclusively enter the house through the back door. “It’s the most-used room,” Moncrief admits. Save for a small toilet room, appliances, and a little bit of paneling, the 9 feet by 12 feet room was bare. Moncrief’s priorities were

A panic always sets in when fall home collections start dropping—don’t take these precious last weeks of summer away from me! I have zero intention of swapping my terrycloth and sun-drenched hues for chunky knits and plaids anytime soon. So what a relief when I saw Anthropologie Home’s fall launch, ready to shop online today. Hello, cheery yellow spindle-style armchair; candy-like, mouthblown gl

Architecture by Arthur Furman, Annie-Laurie Grabiel, and Sean Reynolds at Side Angle Side; Build by Red Tail Construction; Landscape Design by Benjamin Sides. When photographer Lili Jamail toured this 1937 Austin bungalow for the first time, it wasn’t hard to picture her friends swimming in the pool or gathering around the kitchen island—many of them had been there before. It’s how Jamail fo

Back in 2019, architect Emily Farnham launched her Los Angeles-based residential design firm with a highly personal project: renovating the turn-of-the-century, 1,238-square-foot home she shares with her husband and son. In the years since, Farnham has gone on to collaborate with celebs like Mandy Moore and Lily Collins, as well as projects with Sarah Sherman Samuel and Reath Design Studio. Stil

Brooklyn-based designer Danielle Herman has been updating Kathryn Vlakic’s Bay Ridge townhouse room-by-room for nearly a decade, since Vlakic’s third son was a newborn. As the list of completed projects grew, so did Vlakic’s trust in Herman; their shared design language; and most notably, Vlakic’s three sons, now 9, 13, and 16 years old. The latter is what prompted the latest—and last—renovation

If you want to know where Nancy Meyers gets ideas for her famously cozy movie sets, you don’t have to look far. The director’s Los Angeles home fully embodies her light and airy aesthetic with no shortage of blonde-toned woods, white linen sofas, and French doors. While you may have caught Architectural Digest’s tour of the space four years ago, Meyers recently shared an updated picture of her h

When I moved from my house in the Maine countryside to an apartment in Rockport, there were a thousand little adjustments. I traded a quarter-mile walk down a dirt road to check my mailbox for a key to a nearby P.O. box. Instead of driving 20 minutes to the nearest store, I could walk around the corner for a cup of coffee and a cardamom bun. And rather than hauling my trash and recycling to the

Interior designers Alvin Wayne and Julia Sobrepeña King of Studio Roen recently joined Domino’s editor-and-chief Lindsey Mather on Substack Live to weigh in on all the color-blocking, pattern-drenching, and duvet-ditching we’re seeing, and they had thoughts. In case you missed their conversation, here are a f

I have my great-grandmother to thank for that; she gifted me (and all of her great-granddaughters) a fancy-schmancy pillow when I turned 13. Let’s just say it had a pretty big influence on my firmness preference: Things need to be plush. As in melted-marshmallow, all-fluff-no-bounce plush. Ever since, I’ve needed a supersoft pillow that will

If you’ve been following the colorful career of Heidi Caillier (which received a turboboost after she revealed her design for Kendall Jenner’s picture-perfect mountain home last year), you know that the Seattle-based powerhouse leans heavy on nostalgia, pattern clashing, and prints that never look dated or kitsch. Her second collaboration with decor brand Joon Loloi, which launches today and con

Growing up, London-based interiors photographer Ingrid Rasmussen spent holidays at the Ibiza home her grandmother bought on a whim in the ‘70s. This spontaneous choice sparked an everlasting affection for the Spanish island within her family. Rasmussen’s brother now lives in that home, but when she started looking for a place of her own, the available modern-style residences didn’t feel right. T

When New Orleans–based designer Hattie Sparks was presented with a 300-square-foot pool house to makeover, the structure presented very little personality. While the outbuilding had good bones, it functioned primarily as a large utility space where the homeowner could stash supplies. The desired vision was entirely different: an extension of the backyard where guests could lounge, make a drink,

They don’t want to see string lights in a kitchen, but do like small, moody bathrooms. Gray interiors, in particular, really get them riled up. In one thread asking what trends won’t age well, the comment with the most upvotes was “gray everything.” In another, a user begged house flippers to stop
