Decorate With Real Furniture in Your Bathroom
If you have the space, a chair, or even a small stool, makes a bathroom feel more spa-like. In designer Victoria Pearson's Ojai, California home, a tufted armchair, purchased from a 20th Century Fox prop sale, practically begs you to unwind. Gauzy curtains from Ikea let sunlight peek through the French doors. Tip: For upholstered pieces, choose an outdoor fabric to help resist moisture.

Stick to One Color for Dishware
A space feels more cohesive when you stick to one colorway. "I have tons of plates! It's one thing I can't resist. But most of them are white, with just a few green ones. That helps visually to keep it from being bogged down," says Pearson. Matching them to the wall paint also helps unite a space so it feels less cluttered. Another advantage? Setting a gorgeous table is a breeze!

Add Billowy Curtains to Your Patio
The white gauze fabric on this Florida home's patio creates a feeling of intimacy and peacefulness. "The veranda is more of an enclosure this way; it transports you," says designer Bill Brockschmidt. "The curtains change the mood. Depending on whether they're tied back or not—or closed completely. They have a breezy feeling and make the outdoor space seem cooler." Throw pillows from Jennifer Garrigues.

Add Rustic Accessories
Burnished antiques add the perfect provincial touch so the home feels cozy and collected, rather than overly formal and fussy. "People sometimes take 'comfort' way too far and end up creating rooms that are bland and uncomfortable," says Brockschmidt. "If this house were filled with big upholstered 'put your feet up' pieces, the place would be hotel-like. We used things like the Indian chairs by the sofa table in the living room less as a place to sit and more to add patina, a little intrigue."

Rethink Natural Materials
The textured walls keep the dining room from feeling overly formal. "It's not fabric—it's woven mats from Pearl River that we framed with moldings. They're actually yoga mats," says designer Courtney Coleman. It's a favorite decorator technique of ours—the texture is gorgeous." Yoga mats by Pearl River.

Remove the Rugs
Hardwood or tile floors makes sweeping up a breeze and are especially pet-friendly. "That's why there are no rugs here," says designer Dana Oatley Ortego of this Spanish Revival home in Dallas. "My client has two Australian Blue Heeler puppies and doesn't want to have to worry."

Create a Cozy Outdoor Space
With a few extra pillows and a bit of plushness, even a patio can be the perfect spot to lounge. In this outdoor space in Manhattan Beach, California, designer Sandy Koepke found an old curtain rod and hung a cushion from it in order to add a little extra softness. It's covered in Sombrero Stripe in Merengue Maroon by Donghia. The pillows are made of old and new fabrics from Mexico, India, and Guatemala.
