I am looking to create a breakfast nook for this area. it is a 82in * 90 in space which is side of the kitchen. My idea was to create a corner bench kind of sitting with possible storage but not able to find furniture matching that dimension and I am not in a budget to create a custom build. House is a mid century modern…

I want to create a jewel box effect with a gorgeous dramatic wall color and possibly color drench the entire room. I'm looking for suggestions as to what color or colors to…

this space is in what was a storage closet that I’m turning into a little library/office for myself!
we live in a home built in the 20’s - lots of small rooms- large farmhouse kitchen overlooking the rambling valley with stonewalls separating the property lines… magical. The home is very mid century vibe. Wood and walls. Lots of wood! A beautiful brick fireplace in living room with faux wood beams on ceiling. This is a 2…
Excited to share a sneak peek at our big backyard makeover. It was four years in the making. When we bought our home in 2019, there was nothing in the yard but a slab of concrete and an old fence. We took our time and added a patio, a new fence, landscaping and outdoor furniture and decor. One year at a time. We're really…

They had to move from a 4 bed to a 2 bed apartment. Stepping in i see a loving man and father trying just to grieve and survive and of course provide for Tink. But they…
I never have been. My closet is always a mess. Things are thrown everywhere. I don’t put them back after I try them on my spare room. Looks like it exploded with clothing and shoes. I will take any advice on getting organized. It’s not in my spare room, but even though I have my calendar on losing things I also have severe…

I’m Apartment Therapy’s Editor-in-Chief, keeping an eye on all things lifestyle and trends. Based in East Orange, New Jersey, I'm obsessed with organizing, gold accents and hosting theme parties.
I left teaching in 2001 to start Apartment Therapy and help people create homes that are beautiful, organized, and healthy. Now, I call a lovely Brooklyn apartment home where I live with my daughter.
I’m a design writer and community builder here at Apartment Therapy. I started my career in magazine publishing, telling stories about style and home. Now, I help people bring those stories to life through color and design. I live in upstate NY with my husband and our very opinionated Basset Hound.
