Name: Amy Pigliacampo + Corey Szopinski (and Gunnar the chocolate lab, Rocco the Pomeranian and Gina the grey tabby cat)
Location: Echo Park — Los Angeles, California
Size: 2100 square feet
Years lived in: Barely 2 months (moved in Dec. 5, 2012); own

Amy Pigliacampo and I met a couple of years ago when she was styling a shoot for a mutual friend of ours. As a fashion stylist, Amy is clearly very tuned into originality, design and how to make everything look good! This is true for her fashion sense, and also for the rad home she shares with her husband Corey Szopinski.

Name: Lauren Moffatt
Location: Upper East Side, Manhattan, New York
Size:1600 square feet
Years lived in: 11 years; Own

Lauren's home is filled with design savvy details, which doesn't come as too much a of a surprise, since she is a women's wear designer with a sharp creative eye and strong sense of style. Despite the amount of personality evident in her space, there's also a feeling of spaciousness, and not just because of the square footage. Some would take the space available and pack it full to every corner, but not so for Lauren.

Name: Baby Jude (4 months)
Location: Virginia
Room Size: 10' x 12'

Kate and her husband live in a historic neighborhood in Virginia in a house that is over 100 years old. When they decided they would need a nursery, they turned to a small guest room that needed some serious TLC. After removing plaster, trim with lead paint, windows, and carpet that was glued to the floor, they spent an entire year reconstructing the room with new windows, drywall, refinished floors and crown moulding. With this blank slate, they set about creating this beautiful and bright space for the little boy they were now expecting.

Name: Kristen Dore, Talent director at The New Organizing Institute, and Alli Sosna, Founder of MicroGreens and Alli Sosna Group.
Location: Columbia Heights, Washington DC
Size: 1200 square feet
Years lived in: 5 years; Renting

The first thing you will notice about Kristen and Alli's home may not be the handmade decor, or the beautiful sunlight streaming across the living room and dining nook, or even the girls themselves. It's their beautiful Corgis! Let's face it: pets are the true stars of house tours. But once you get past the cuteness, you realize you're standing in the gorgeous home of one of D.C's rising chefs and game changers of the food culture and her beautiful fiancé.

Name: Maxwell Ryan and daughter, Ursula (aka Lulu)
Location: Soho, NYC
Size: 480 s/f
Years lived in: 1 year rented

Just over a year ago, when my marriage ended, I moved here. Despite being overwhelmed by the unexpected turn of events, it seemed like the right thing to do for both of us. I quickly found this apartment only a few blocks away, waited while it was finished and then set about making a new home for myself and our daughter, who is with me half of the time now. Doing this became a total joy, and it was unexpectedly great to build a new foundation. It helped me get back on my feet, and I came to love this place. It is, however, too small now, with only one bedroom, so we're moving next week to a two bedroom a little farther away (if you want this apartment, it's for rent with Michael Weil here). This is a final love letter to our temporary home in 2012. More

Just past Chicago's southern border is the quaint town of Blue Island, Illinois. On a quiet, tree-lined street in Blue Island is Chris and Colleen's gem of a home. Using smart planning, a great sense of detail, and a lot of work, they turned a small, dilapidated 1950's ranch house into a bright, hip family home.

Size: 1,100 square feet
Years lived in: 2 years (Matt), 7 months (Andy); Rent

I first visited Matt's Eclectic Park Avenue Pad in Raleigh, North Carolina back in October of 2011. At the time I was completely blown away by his ability to turn his 1901 duplex rental into a visually stunning respite filled with a hodgepodge of hand-painted art, vintage furniture, and personal photographs. His unique Art Deco and Mid Century finds blended effortlessly with the space's 100-year-old wood floors and glass doorknobs.
