According to a recent survey from Rocket Mortgage, 93% of buyers are looking for a home with a dedicated dining space for hosting. And actually, that tracks. After years of watching homeowners knock down walls and let kitchens, living rooms, and dining areas blur into one big space, the pendulum has begun to swing back toward houses with a little more definition. Unlike the formal dining rooms o

Best known for the luxurious air they bring to hospitality projects, such as Inness & Inness Bathhouse in New York’s Hudson Valley and the Lafayette Hotel & Club in San Diego, the three partners who run design firm Post Company are people just like the rest of us.

A microscopic vanity with zero counter space and awkward storage can make your daily routine feel like a hassle. But a thoughtfully designed one can inspire you to slow down as you wind down. Luckily, renovators have similar ideas of what a beautiful bathroom vanity looks like—Houzz’s 2026 Bathroom Trends Study laid it all out for us.  The design and construction platform polled 1,619 U.

Decorating has been getting stranger, moodier, and more mysterious lately. In other words, it’s never been easier to get into Halloween, even if you’ve historically wanted nothing to do with fake cobwebs, inflatable lawn monsters, or a plastic skeleton slumped across your sofa. The trick is to treat October like you would the rest of the year: look for o

Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days, from October 6 to 7, is an excellent excuse to get a head start on holiday gifting—especially when the sale includes the kinds of things we’d actually want to unwrap ourselves. We sifted through the markdowns to find design-y kitchen upgrades, little luxuries, foolproof host gifts, and a few big-ticket presents worth buying while prices are right. Here’s your chance

Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days are back, which means two things: very good sales and an overwhelming number of tabs. The two-day sale officially kicks off October 6, and there are already plenty of early discounts worth scouting—from design-forward air purifiers and attractive kitchen appliances to the cleaning tools we’d happily pay full price for (but would rather not). So, we did the digging

September’s most-shopped products make a pretty convincing case that you are ready to cozy up for fall. You gravitated toward texture in all its forms: rattan, velvet, block-printed linen, and a tiny vintage-inspired stool, plus a few hardworking buys that make everyday life a little easier. Wicker had an especially big month (we can probably thank Alexander Skarsgård for at least some of that),

Los Angeles is an oasis for inventiveness and interesting design, so it makes sense that in 2024, multi-hyphenate creative Holland Denvir dreamed up an event that would put all that imagination on display more officially. LA Design Week/end stretches across multiple neighborhoods, inviting design lovers to explore the city itself along with the studios, showrooms, galleries, and makers shaping i

A very high percentage of my evenings are spent taking in movies and shows. Yet, for someone so committed to TV, I really don’t want one to be the focal point of my living room. Thankfully, IKEA has come up with a particularly clever solution, and, unexpectedly, I have XBOX to thank. The new nine-piece YXSTABY collection, which is in stores now

Don’t get me wrong, 2 a.m. feedings are tough too, but I’ve never felt so drained as I did when I was hunting for a chair where I could comfortably nurse, snuggle, and read to my now-eight-month-old—and on top of that it had to blend in with my apartment’s living room. If only Nate Berkus’s collab

There’s no client with needs and desires that must be met, but there’s also not much time: A typical showhouse room is designed in a matter of weeks. It’s also an opportunity to “show” your work to a new audience, which can often result in bold, even over-the-top rooms designed to spark conversation. Interior designer Peter Dunham chos

For Leanne Kilroy, an interior designer and the founder of London-based Good Bones, there were four in her former home: a group of old, perforated tin pendants hanging in the kitchen. “The way the light would play through the perforations and bounce off the wall was pure magic,” says Kilroy, who tried to find the exact vintage shades for

As interiors have loosened up from the ultra-serious minimalism of years past, surrealism has been sneaking into our homes in increasingly playful ways: food-shaped objects, wonky proportions, and familiar forms rendered just strange enough to make you look twice. Designer and ceramicist Eny Lee Parker is leaning into that slightly off-kilter mood with her latest lighting collection for Lulu and

Amber Lewis is ready to peel back the curtain. “I want to talk about how much goes into a project,” says the founder of Amber Interiors whose third monograph, Interiors, hits bookshelves today. “We’re essentially acting as designers, builders, architects, therapists, and managers. It’s so process driven, and I don’t think designers get enough credit for that.&

And let’s not forget another clear signal: a sea of sunset-hued mums appearing outside your local supermarket. Julia Marcum of Chris Loves Julia, however, is making a case for a different flower for your front door pots: pansies—and the faux kind, at that.  In a recent Instagram post, the interior design pro re

You’re about to see a lot of Drew Michael Scott at West Elm with the new release of his holiday collaboration. But there’s a chance you’ve seen him there before. The designer and founder of Lone Fox used to work there as a sales associate and in-home stylist. It’s the job that ultimately inspired him to make a shift from studying fashion to decorating interiors and sharing DIY projects.  Co

As a kid, there’s something thrilling about opening one tiny door and knowing Christmas was officially a day closer. (The chocolate inside is almost beside the point.) These days, the rewards of advent calendars have gotten a serious upgrade, and many are perfectly suited to please adults, too. The drinks enthusiast gets whiskey, the baker gets a fresh project, the beauty obsessive gets a

Just to put everyone on the same page, here’s what 500 square feet actually amounts to: a petite hotel room, a two-car garage, one-fourth of a standard size tennis court. The space is limited, for sure—but the possibilities for what to do with it are not, as evidenced by the 10 apartments below, some of which are even tinier than that by half. Think: a fairytale apartment in Normandy, a Swedish

Old buildings come with quirks that are both charming and confounding, and this dilapidated apartment near the heart of Lisbon was a textbook example. The long corridor, string of small pass-through rooms, and compact layout that designer Svetlana Vakhtina encountered would be challenging to work with, particularly because it all couldn’t be wiped clean with a renovation. The location, within a
