Design tip #1: CHOOSE A BED WITH BUILT-IN STORAGE UNDERNEATH

Stash extra blankets, pillows and guest towels here, so they’re easy to find and don’t take up space in your closets.

Design tip #2 : CHOOSE A PENDANT LIGHT INSTEAD OF A TABLE LAMP

Hanging lights save space and minimize nightstand clutter.

Design tip #3: MIX-AND-MATCH YOUR FURNITURE

This on-trend approach makes it easy to repurpose pieces from room to room. This funky, mid-century armchair defines a guest bedroom seating area, but looks equally fantastic in the living room or den.

Design tip #4: INVEST IN CONTEMPORARY DRESSERS YOU CAN MOVE FROM ROOM TO ROOM WHENEVER YOU REDECORATE

Thanks to its streamlined, hardware-free design, this piece fits a number of needs: bedroom dresser, hallway organizer, dining room buffet – and more!
