The 70 projects are as simple as recipes, with “ingredient” lists and clear step-by-step directions. There are smart, stylish solutions for every room in the house, including quick wins that can be accomplished in just twenty minutes (drawers for kitchen utensils, makeup, and socks) as well as larger overhauls that may take an hour or more (a “drop zone” for dirty shoes and sports gear at the garage door, a color-coded bedroom closet, a playroom kids will actually keep tidy). The end result is transformative: By implementing solutions that emphasize beauty as much as function, you’ll create a home that’s well arranged, a true place of calm and simplicity.
