Creating a clear separation between spaces, a wooden box situated in the corner of the living room houses the kitchen.

Natural light from windows at the end of the room illuminate a cooking area that could seem dark and cramped otherwise.
Sometimes the biggest punch of style comes in a small package. Check out how these wrought iron squares transform the staircase.
The master bedroom is given a breath of fresh air with ample windows and an adjoining patio.
White walls, closets and countertops in the bathroom make the space feel light and airy.
For a fun lounging experience, why not hang out in the garage? This basement area, separated from the outdoors with a sliding garage door, could be the perfect place to have a party.
