living room with fireplace, white walls, grey sofa, pink armchair and book shelves on left of fireplace

A modern home needs to adapt and shift to cater to the needs of our changing lives. Great design shows what can be achieved working with what is already there, as opposed to packing up and moving out. When a family grows, the need for more space and storage ideas for small spaces grows too. 

A family of four, husband and wife working in the publishing field, and their two daughters, lived in their Brooklyn townhouse for ten years before deciding to do an extension to expand and create a modern kitchen and bigger rooms for their two daughters. The result features joyful use of color, pattern, texture, cozy nooks, and lots of clever storage.
