Save these design ideas to create a space in your home where not only everyone gathers, but they do so comfortably. What are the elements of a well designed space perfect for gathering all of your loved ones? Contrary to what you might think, you don’t need a huge open space to host a beautiful and comfortable gathering! Three elements we find to be “must haves” in any space designed for hosting are:

1. Open concept kitchen and dining. Even if you throw walls up in other areas of your first floor (and we think you should!), an open kitchen and dining space makes for a lovely gathering spot. Set up a buffet on the island or serve family-style in the center of a large dining table. Either way, the open concept kitchen and dining room allows for freedom of movement, cozy corners for quiet conversation and a spot for everyone at the table.

2. Add a wet or dry bar area. Whether you go all in with a sink, kegerator and all the appliances or simply add a beverage cooler and a countertop, a spot for making drinks and/or setting out snacks is a great addition to any gathering.

3. Cue the lights! Lots of natural lighting for daytime affairs and an abundance of layered lighting come sunset sets the perfect backdrop for your gathering. Add a roaring fireplace for a cozy winter aesthetic and people are sure to feel right at home.
