You don't have to have a big backyard to fit in a pool—and if you do have a big backyard, the pool doesn't have to take up the entire thing.

Great for small spaces, this less-often used layout is worth a look.

If only the universe were a little more accommodating, every time you added a new person to your family, a new room would magically be added to your abode. Alas, it is not so. But the good news is that, for a while at least, tiny people do not take up very much space, so in the same way that you can morph part of a living room into a home office or a closet into a (grown-up) bedroom, you can carve out a spot for your little one.

Finally give your kitties the privacy they desire.

Many bathrooms are sterile, shiny affairs, full of porcelain, ceramic tile, and sleek chrome. The following spaces, however, aim for something a little different. Whether your bathroom is small or a huge primary bath, going rustic just makes everything feel cozier. Bringing in textured elements like brick, concrete, and wood will give your bathroom a touch of the unexpected and more than a little bit of rustic charm.

They're too cute.

Short on cabinets? We've got solutions.

Whether you need to carve out a bedroom from a studio apartment, or a foyer from a living room, or just a little private space anywhere, these room dividers will get the job done.

Looking through the photos of Cara and Poppy Delevingne's Los Angeles home, I couldn't help thinking: this is exactly the kind of house I would've dreamed up when I was eight years old. You might think that sounds like a disaster, but you'd be wrong. It is glorious.

Genevieve chronicled the renovation of her New York apartment in an HGTV show called "Genevieve's Renovation." Some of the big changes she made included combining her apartment with the one next door, and, yes, adding a bathtub to her office.

The story of chintz' '80s heyday and its subsequent decline and return to popularity are just a small part of its evolution.

ER doctor Pam is a NYC native and when she moved to Houston, Texas, she found this spacious, modern townhouse and turned it into a welcoming, personal space.

Sometimes, buying a home is a little bit like falling in love. Sometimes, when you know, you know. It was like that for world-renowned opera singer Andrew Bocelli, who settled on this 8,000 square foot Tuscan villa “rather quickly.” “For a choice as important as buying your home, I think we have to call on not only our rationality but also our instinct,” he told Architectural Digest. It’s hard to blame him.

Here at Apartment Therapy, we’re big fans of Man Repeller, the online destination for smart, quirky fashion and smart, addictive writing about life, culture, and everything else.

Sunday was Mother’s Day and hopefully, you remembered to call your mom. Film and television actress Taraji P. Henson took things one step further and treated her stepmom Angie to a complete renovation of her Washington D.C.-area home. With a little help from the folks at Houzz, she transformed Angie’s old, crumbling kitchen, and opened up her cramped living room, which is now airy and full of light.

Wrapping up a tour through the South American country, he got a call from a friend to visit a property in the countryside.
