You can make a television the focal point of your living room — or don’t! Invest in a spacious sectional or opt for a few crowd-controlling armchairs — the sky’s the limit.

Just like everything in interior design, kitchen cabinet color trends are changing all the time.

Raise your hand if you’ve got a pizza stashed in your freezer right now. Me too. And as someone who lives in “the best pizza neighborhood in New York,” that’s saying a lot.
