Living room - transitional medium tone wood floor living room idea in Richmond with gray walls

When time is short, you can still do some quick decor around the house that really creates the mood! Use what you have around the house already and just add a pumpkin and something fun that represents Halloween. I had these metallic candle holders here in my home from Yankee Candle and they added to this easy grouping of a pumpkin and adorable witches potion bottle from Pier One. And, if you like the banquette seating behind my table, that's from Ballard Designs. -Kala Ambrose Intuitive Interior Decor

This Award-winning kitchen proves vintage doesn't have to look old and tired. This previously dark kitchen was updated with white, gold, and wood in the historic district of Monte Vista. The challenge is making a new kitchen look and feel like it belongs in a charming older home. The highlight and starting point is the original hex tile flooring in white and gold. It was in excellent condition and merely needed a good cleaning. The addition of white calacatta marble, white subway tile, walnut wood counters, brass and gold accents keep the charm intact. Cabinet panels mimic original door panels found in other areas of the home. Custom coffee storage is a modern bonus! Sub-Zero Refrig, Rohl sink, brass woven wire grill.

Great room - small contemporary concrete floor great room idea in Seattle

WINNER: Silver Award – One-of-a-Kind Custom or Spec 4,001 – 5,000 sq ft, Best in American Living Awards, 2019 Affectionately called The Magnolia, a reference to the architect's Southern upbringing, this project was a grass roots exploration of farmhouse architecture. Located in Phoenix, Arizona’s idyllic Arcadia neighborhood, the home gives a nod to the area’s citrus orchard history. Echoing the past while embracing current millennial design expectations, this just-complete speculative family home hosts four bedrooms, an office, open living with a separate “dirty kitchen”, and the Stone Bar. Positioned in the Northwestern portion of the site, the Stone Bar provides entertainment for the interior and exterior spaces. With retracting sliding glass doors and windows above the bar, the space opens up to provide a multipurpose playspace for kids and adults alike. Nearly as eyecatching as the Camelback Mountain view is the stunning use of exposed beams, stone, and mill scale steel in this grass roots exploration of farmhouse architecture. White painted siding, white interior walls, and warm wood floors communicate a harmonious embrace in this soothing, family-friendly abode.

This was a "dead zone" side yard, between my clients' house, garage, and a neighbor's close-in fence. Too often, these side yard spaces are overlooked, or even forgotten. We chose to make it a welcoming place to visit. The inviting pathway of cobble pavers, connects the front yard to back yard living spaces. Colors and textures overflow and fill the space with easy-care plantings. Credit: Tad Anderson. All rights exclusively reserved.
