Small White Living Room With Mirror Wall
To create a feeling of cohesion through the flat, the walls were panted in the drawing room and the bedroom from Paint and Paper Library; the sofa, is covered in a Bruno Triplet linen.

We have always believed that size is indeed relative, and what might be a lavish, generous home for some might seem like a modest, mundane affair to others. A backyard swimming pool is not too different in this regard, as those who actually do not have one often crave at least a small pool that allows them to cool off on a hot summer day. Adding a petite pool to your small backyard need not be a challenging and complex affair, and the result will often leave you amazed, as you will discover a brand new hangout just a few steps away from your living room!

There are walk-ins and then there are these beauties that redefine what it means to own a luxury closet. The only problem? You'll be left full of envy after taking a peek at these rooms, which feature museum-quality shoe storage and a few chandeliers (because, why not?).​




Bright Skylight 
The skylight in the closet provides natural light, making it easier
                             (and more enjoyable!) to pick out an outfit in the morning.

           Shoe Storage
                 A dedicated space for it, which represents the height of luxury (we agree!).

                              High-End Doors                              
 The mirrored panels and hardware in this closet were inspired by the Hôtel de Crillon in Paris.   and the cozy furniture and chandelier are just the cherry on top.

Boutique Touches
When it comes to boutique design, less is certainly more as seen in this closet. That way, you can actually see what you own.



Black and White
Even the most cramped closets can get a boost from wallpaper (or paint).Focusing on one wall to not overwhelm the rest of the space.

                                                            
  Dressing Space
Channel the glamorous feel of a changing room by bringing in a tufted bench or ottoman to     your bedroom to create a lovely dressing space.

Pinterest has become an amazing place to find unique ideas of what one might want to obtain or accomplish in life. One of the common Pinterest boards found across the popular social network is “dream home.”

So Tech Insider hatched a brilliant idea of asking Pinterest to share what the most popular ‘home’ pins were. They asked what the most popular pictures were in each of these categories: exterior, living rooms, dining rooms, kitchens, entertainment rooms, home offices, bedrooms, bathrooms, closets, garages, attics, basements, and outdoor yards. The results were fascinating. Instead of big mansions or little cozy cabins in the woods, it seems the most popular “dream home” is a family home that balances majesty with simplicity.


  • The main structure of Pinterest’s trendiest home is this two story, navy blue house with white trim.
