We tend to overlook and undervalue the corners in our homes. Unlike a living area or a dining room, corners can be somewhat awkward and don’t necessarily present an easy design solution. Instead of letting these small, “in-between” spaces remain unused, discover how you can transform them into cozy nooks and functional spaces.
In the slideshow below, see how some of our talented designers transform awkward room corners into beautiful, cozy corners you’ll always want to find yourself in:
While some corners call for intricate design details, others look just as chic with minimal additions. Cantoni Los Angeles designer, Kyle Spivey created a simple yet sophisticated reading nook by adding an armchair in a bright yellow for visual interest and a plush pillow with a small side table.
