Discover how to design for functionality with practical solutions for every room.
Make a great first impression with an organized and functional entryway. Install hooks or a coat rack for jackets and bags, a shoe rack or bench with storage for shoes, and a console table with baskets or bins for keys, mail, and other essentials. Incorporate a mirror to check your appearance before heading out the door, and add a rug to catch dirt and debris.

Create a comfortable and inviting living room that is conducive to relaxation and socializing. Choose versatile furniture pieces, such as a sectional sofa with a chaise lounge or ottoman that can double as extra seating or storage. Incorporate built-in shelving or bookcases to display books, decorative objects, and media storage. Ensure ample lighting with a combination of overhead lighting, floor lamps, and table lamps. Maximize functionality in the heart of your home with a well-organized kitchen. Opt for efficient storage solutions such as pull-out pantry shelves, drawer organizers, and cabinet inserts. Utilize vertical space with overhead pot racks or hanging shelves for cookware and utensils. Choose durable and low-maintenance materials for countertops and flooring, and invest in high-quality appliances that meet your cooking needs.
Create a dining space that is both elegant and practical for everyday use. Choose a dining table that fits your space and lifestyle, whether it's a round table for intimate gatherings or a extendable table for hosting dinner parties. Select comfortable and easy-to-clean dining chairs, and consider adding a bench for versatile seating options. Install overhead lighting or a statement chandelier to set the mood for dining. Design a serene and restful bedroom that promotes relaxation and rejuvenation. Invest in a quality mattress and bedding for a comfortable night's sleep, and choose a bed frame with built-in storage drawers or a storage headboard to maximize space. Incorporate bedside tables with drawers or shelves for convenient storage, and add task lighting with bedside lamps or wall sconces for reading.
Create a spa-like retreat in your bathroom with practical and stylish design elements. Install ample storage solutions such as vanity cabinets, shelving units, and recessed niches for toiletries and towels. Choose durable and easy-to-clean materials for flooring, countertops, and shower surrounds. Enhance functionality with features such as a walk-in shower with a built-in bench, a double vanity for shared bathrooms, and a heated towel rack for added comfort.
