Great one ! My all time fav is baskets with lids. I hv seen ppl throw rugs on sofas, just for fashion even in humid climates! If its a personal choice to use while lounging, it can be kept away in closed baskets/ decorative boxes ❤

Ashley, these are all good reminders. My two favorites are to use big pieces of art instead of multiple smaller ones and to decorate my small central hallway more completely. I have a small chest of drawers I think I'm going to move there just under a wall niche that already showcases a beautiful painting I have. Thank you! Your videos are so informative. and useful.

Perfect timing! I just moved into a small townhouse only two weeks ago, and so far I’m on track. I just commissioned an artist to work on a large piece for my living room and one for my bedroom. I’m on the hunt for the perfect area rugs for both rooms as well, and decided to go large. I also love the idea of having dual purpose furniture. I’ll be looking for a steamer trunk that might serve as both a coffee table and storage space. Not to mention serve as an attractive conversation piece as well. Thank you for such a great video. ❤️

I love the use of pocket doors,...I'm not sure why they aren't used more, they make sense, especially in smaller bathrooms, etc. I don't like not using floor lamps, ...there's a place for wall sconce lights, ...but itvlimits your " re- arranging your room " ...same with the " wall mounted nightstands, etc. Ugggh.

I would add a large ceramic vase and maybe a stack of 2 tiered baskets with lids. They take up lots of visual space and act as extra storage if needed!

Thank you Ashley! Create visual space. Bounce lights (mirrors, reflective finishes). Highlight vertical space (ceiling-reaching shelves, full-height artwork, vertical tiles). Create continuity (monotone colours, storage spaces/appliances behind walls, wall mounting for clearing the floor, space symmetry). Save space (cozy dining table, sliding doors).

Nn rugs under the bed. Only 4 pillows on bed. Lose the throws on the sofa, store them in a otterman. Curtains they have to go, use shades or wooden coverings. Let's start changing things...

Interesting!! Sounds like your leaning into modern minimalism, I love it!

I love your tips but I do not like monochromatic colors. So dull.

Most of these are great! But... banquette seating or bench seating is just NO! NO! NO!!!! Try being in one of these and you or someone else needs to get out and go to the bathroom. 😱😱😱 Awkward!!! Even worse when you have mobility issues and you have to scoot around these awful things. Sorry but bench seating also looks to me like a glorified picnic bench. Only do it if you NEVER intend to use it. Or it's just for the kids.

One could add gliders under the table legs, which allows you to move the table in or out, easily.

Those aren't small places

It will be better if you only put one slide of pic. Instead of two slides..my husband and I stopped watching it..:-(

this is for Rich people not poor people

Bookshelves look cheap, cluttered, and dusty to me if they actually contain books. Books should be inside cabinets, they’re not attractive.

What is with this love Americans have for black curtain rods? or just curtain rods in general. So old fashion and farmhouse. Use curtain rail and it will look much more chic and beautiful than a rod.
