HAPPY MEALS A built-in banquette,
opposite,
provides extra storage for toys.
“This is where we eat the most,” Kelly says.
COLOR CODED The kitchen’s taupe
cabinets,

and sea-glass blue
tiles set the color palette for the rest of the
house. “I love color, especially muted
shades because they’re warm and
calming,” Kelly says.
WORKING GIRL Instead of devoting an
entire room to a home office, Kelly, who
worked as a publicist for See Jane Work

a command center,

Cabinets hold
files and binders. “I love using this area as
my stop-off office, instead of stacking stuff
all over the counter,” she says. tiD
