"The clients are a family of five who were already living in the Barcelona flat but wanted to give it new character through the redesign of the kitchen and bathrooms," says Muñoz. "Our focus was to update the spaces while maintaining continuity with the rest of the apartment, which has a lot of personality thanks to the clients."

One of the most effective ways to clean your home is to work from top to bottom. This ensures that whatever dirt or dust is lurking above falls down first, so you're not forced to redo any of the hard work you've already done below.

Even trash cans can be fun, too!! Omg stopppppl I neeeedddd to do thissss. So you're telling me my trash can doesn't have to be an eyesore? The best part? Even if a disco ball look-alike isn't for you, the idea stands: Layering peel-and-stick tile to the outside of your trash can turns something ordinary into an extraordinary touch.

The results? They picked out 26 cleaning solutions, calling them their favorites. From tried-and-true staples to brand-new discoveries, see below for our top picks.

Our approach is material-led and function-first. While many modern kitchen designers favor uniform cabinetry, we embrace the diversity of your belongings-incorporating varied drawer depths, shallow cupboards, and open shelving, so there is truly a place for everything, and our projects are never visually boring.

The best way to overcome travel accidents is to always be prepared. That includes packing just a little soap before you go. "Bring concentrated liquid detergent in a small travel bottle-it's easier to rinse out than powder," O'Connor said. " Dr. Bronner's or Woolite works well for hand washing. You can skip fabric softener. This just adds rinse cycles you don't need."

Because it's so important to the function of my home, it's become an afterthought when it comes to making it beautiful. All I need is a functional, clean space - it doesn't need to feel as relaxing as my bedroom or living room. Plus, it's not like I have the time (or money!) to invest in transforming the bathroom space by hiring a stager or designer. But I'm interested in making each space feel a little more beautiful these days.

Between getting breakfast on the table, coaxing kids out of bed, and shuffling everyone out the door for early morning sports practices, carpools, and work commitments, I rely on systems to keep our mornings moving. Coffee is always in hand, but smooth routines are what make the difference. Over the years, I've learned that small organizational "hacks" can make or break a morning, things like hooks for backpacks, a designated shoe zone, or preplanned breakfasts.

Kohler's Anthem EvoCycle Smart Shower makes it easy to be more mindful about your water consumption. That's because when it's in "Cycle" mode, you can save up to 80% of water with a filtered, recirculated flow from the shower head. It uses an in-floor reservoir and filter in the shower base to do this, along with a closed loop system to deliver the recycled and fresh water mixture to the shower head. But you still get all the luxury that Kohler plumbing offers

Unless you're opting for a purely second-hand mismatched design, renovating a kitchen can be a costly affair. From figuring out the layout plan to choosing cabinets, counters, hardware, and additional features, it adds up quickly. Of course, certain features are more valuable than others when it comes to how you use your kitchen on a daily basis. And if it's the busiest room in your home, you'll want to pay attention to the components that could benefit from a touch of luxury.

In fact, one particular upgrade can maximize space, especially in long, narrow kitchens. Replacing your cabinets will not only allow you to take advantage of more modern materials and styles, but can also give you opportunities to explore space-saving alternatives and creative storage solutions. While full-depth kitchen counters take up a lot of floor space, inset kitchen cabinets are narrow, compact, and still highly functional.

The best over-the-toilet storage is one that can maximize the space in a small bathroom without looking like an eyesore. Whether you have a tiny powder room or a bathroom of epic proportions in need of extra storage, the right bathroom shelf can help you create a clutter-free, organized oasis. Transform this often-overlooked area above the john with thoughtfully designed shelving that keeps toiletries neat and accessible.

Everyone has that one "dead" space in their home that they don't know what to do with. For me, it's the 7.5-inch gap between my refrigerator and my kitchen wall. The untapped storage space has become a dumping ground for reusable tote bags (not pretty), and the narrow dimensions have made finding the right storage solution a serious struggle - nothing fits!

The Origami Heavy Duty 3-Tier Rack 2-Pack is a set of two freestanding shelving units designed to instantly add structure to tight spaces like closets, entryways, and bedrooms. Each rack has three wide, steel shelves built to hold heavier items - think stacks of shoes, storage bins, folded sweaters, or even luggage - without bowing or wobbling. They're designed to fold open in seconds with no tools required, lock into place for stability, and collapse flat when not in use.

If you want to hang art, tighten loose drawer pulls, change lightbulbs, and safely plug in electronics (read: live your day-to-day life!) at home, you'll want to keep a few basic tools on hand. - Former Home Projects Editor, Sarah Everett 1.
