Arranging furniture is one of the most daunting—yet most important—design decisions. One secret is to make sure you leave enough space between pieces. Tip: allow 30 inches between furniture you need to be able to walk around and 14 to 18 inches between a coffee table and sofa, so drinks are within reaching distance. If a piece of furniture is too far away, it may look like it's floating in the room without purpose. 🙅‍♀️ More no-fail arranging tricks via the link in our bio! 👆 #bhghome 📷: @edmundbarrphotography | Stylist: @michaelwaltersstyle

This primarily white kitchen could have easily taken a cold turn. But a few organic additions help the space feel warm and welcoming. Stone floors and backsplashes combine with wood-seat stools and a primitive island to boost interest without disturbing the room's bright spirit.✨ Tap the link in our bio for more white kitchen ideas we love. 📷: @annieschlechter | Producer: Melissa Feldman | Homeowner: Analisse Taft
