Inside This HGTV Host's Unbelievably Cool Loft

Even though Anthony has renovated over 100 kitchens, there were certain features he loved that he hadn't been able to try in his client's homes, like mixing metal and wood. He used veneers sliced from old gondola posts to cover the cabinets and fridge door and paired them with stainless-steel appliances. The countertops are Dekton, a durable engineered quartz that Anthony often uses on his show. For a breakfast bar, he positioned a piece of burl wood onto one corner of the island. To finish the look, he added a backsplash of blue tiles by Heath Ceramics.

In the living room, Anthony softened the industrial impact of the tall ceilings and concrete floor by installing a hanging Fire Orb fireplace and piling on honey-toned woods and a mix of textures. He finished the look with a leather Timothy Oulton sofa, floor-to-ceiling curtains made from Sunbrella fabric, tweedy midcentury-modern armchairs from Dot & Bo, and an easel-shaped TV stand from Restoration Hardware. The real standout pieces, though, are the bright floor accents, like the overdyed rug from Wayfair. "Most people put color on their walls, but here I wanted the energy to come from the ground," said Anthony.

Deciding to put a shipping container on his rooftop was something Anthony always fantasized about doing. He turned it into a cozy hangout by bringing in a sofa and wall-mounted desk and finished it off with an oversize photo he took while traveling.

You can see him enjoying an al fresco meal on the teak patio set with his parents and sister. We can't imagine a better way to spend the Summer!
