Mudroom solutions

An organized mudroom space tidies up all the clutter of day-to-day life. It should offer convenient storage for items like shoes and hats, a place to hang coats and scarves, and a seat for putting on shoes. Even a shallow space, like the one pictured here, can function as a mudroom with creative storage design. Stacked units offer a stylish spot to hang or stash gear.See it on PinterestSee more mudroom ideas

Vibrant porch

To make your exterior as ready for conversations as your interior, use the many options in weather-resistant furniture, fabrics and rugs to get all the comforts of the indoors outside. Because porches are more sheltered from the elements than a deck, it's OK to accessorize with items you wouldn't normally use outside. Bright pillows and decorative favorites make for a uniquely you porch without too much worry-or work.See it on PinterestSee more about this porch

Smart kitchen

Clever features in this kitchen add up to one user-friendly sink area. Tall pots and vases fit under the high faucet spout; a magnetic docking system guarantees the hand spray locks in place. An apron-front sink made of stainless steel won't rust, stain or chip. Its zero-radius design (meaning straight, not rounded, corners) maximizes usable space.White walls balance the natural texture of walnut shelves; dangling glass lighting adds glitz. The rest of the kitchen uses recessed LED lights to illuminate work areas. LEDs use 75 percent less energy than old-school incandescents and last 35-50 times longer.See it on PinterestSee more about this kitchen
