This homeowner dreamed up a use for the area under her stairs — and we love the clever use of color, textiles, and function. The cozy nook is wrapped in a restful blue, and she designed the space to include plenty of light for reading and relaxing …. plus, just enough storage for a few personal items, and her current stash of books! We ordered a customized bench cushion for her to take advantage of the precious space. Such a fun project!

Here are a few “before” pictures of the space before its transformation.
