Everyone knows that the kitchen is the heart of the home. This room, with its impressive 20-foot ceilings, still offers plenty of depth and coziness despite being an open concept space that includes a living and dining room. The rich color palette of forest greens, grays and blues mimics the outdoors and feel both timeless and trend-forward.

One of the most jaw-dropping features of this living space is the oversized window and skylights. They flood this room with cheerful, natural light and make the rugged exterior feel like a part of the décor. It’s biophilic style at its best!

Think beyond stainless steel when it comes to your kitchen appliances — for more than just the smudge resistance. Here, a blue refrigerator stands out among neutral cabinets; paired with a matching hood and kitchen island it draws attention to these stand-out features.

Want to turn the subway tile shape on its head? Just place those tiles vertically. Their deep gray hue feels forever in-style and pair beautifully with the neutral cabinets. Plus, the direction of the tile draws your eye up to the stunning outdoor views out the oversized windows.

For those pesky handwash-only items, this kitchen sink comes equipped with a built-in, expandable drying rack that fits perfectly inside the basin without stealing counterspace. If you’re in the middle of meal prep, swap the rack for a cutting board to make prep — and more importantly, cleanup — a breeze.

In a kitchen this big there’s room for everyone to gather without getting in the way of the chef. Comfortable seats tuck easily under the center island and make for a casual spot to eat breakfast in the morning or to patiently wait for dinner to be served — with a cocktail in hand of course.

Say goodbye to a jumble of baking trays, cookie sheets and muffin tins crammed into a cubby next to the oven. This easy-close drawer keeps them upright, organized, and most importantly, clean and ready-to-use whenever the mood strikes or a meal needs to be made.

Enjoy easy access to all of your entertaining essentials. This drawer with built-in organizing compartment glides out to easily display your cloth napkins, candles and matches. No more digging around to find just the right pattern or an extra taper.

If you’ve ever wondered if your utensil tray will fit, this oversized version has room enough for all your flatware and tools. Separate compartments keep things from rolling around the second you shut the drawer.

You invest in quality cookware, so storage for those items should be a priority too. Avoid the tangle of handles, lids and stacks of pots and pans with a semi-custom drawer designed to hold it all without breaking a sweat. It’s so much easier to be organized when everything has a place.

If space is on your side, a wet bar is always an ideal addition. Not only does it give you an extra sink and prep space for mixing up cocktails and mocktails, it provides storage for entertaining pieces you don’t use every day like oversized platters, fancy glasses and playful drink accessories. A mini fridge lets guests help themselves to a cold drink without crowding your main fridge too.

Cleaning up never felt so fun. Not only is there an extra faucet available at this wet bar, but it comes with a separate glass cleaner. Place your cocktail glass on top for a quick clean that’s — dare we say — enjoyable? It’s an end of the night party trick guests will be lining up for.

A pocket door painted in the same color as the wall keeps the pantry feeling hidden but still easy to access while you’re cooking. The ultimate luxury, a separate pantry frees up cabinet space for all of your dishes, pots and gadgets so you can keep them close at hand while you cook.

One of the secrets to an organized pantry has everything to do with appearances. Remove visual clutter by storing multiple small items in a large basket or bin. Painting the walls and shelves the same color creates a streamlined look and feel throughout the space too.

To keep open concept from feeling unwieldy, creating separate zones using statement furniture pieces helps define each space. The living room, with its touches of red clay colored paint, are a nod to local attraction, Red Rocks. A playful multipaneled dinosaur painting by Karen Musgraves points the way to the kitchen.

A perfect center point for this living space, this oversized dining room table is meant for entertaining a crowd. The weathered leather dining chairs feel rustic yet relaxed, and they are the perfect size to sink into during a multicourse dinner.
