Don’t Feel Cornered: Utilizing Your Home’s Corner Space

Corners are a tricky-to-decorate but mandatory space in every home. Unless we start building all our homes to be curved (which would create a different problem!), you’ll always have several sharp angles in every room.

I’ve talked about cottagecore at length – from what the style is to how to recreate it at home. But there’s one room in the house that’s never talked about in the cottagecore movement: the bathroom.

Bathroom With A Sloped Ceiling: Making The Most of Attic Bathrooms, Steep Gables, and Cramped Additions

The building blocks of interior design are all squares and rectangles. If you’ve ever had the (mis)fortune of using floorplan software, you’ll know: at the very basic level, everything is broken down into small boxes shuffled around in bigger boxes.

Bathe Better in 2020: Bathroom Trends To Help You Unwind

2020 has been a rough year so far. I think it’s safe to say that we all have hygiene on the mind, and that we could all use a reliable way to de-stress and unwind. Where do those two things come together? You’ve got it: the bathroom. A hot shower or a long bubble bath […]
