Ahead, get inspired by these designs — all of which have been featured on HGTV. From arched doorways to curved counter stools, there's something for everyone.

A rounded doorway adds storybook charm to the custom white oak fort HGTV's Help! I Wrecked My House host Jasmine Roth designed for her daughter Hazel's room. Complete with a slide and built-in sleeping nook, the play structure feels even more inviting thanks to this rounded architectural detail.

With blush-toned tiles, cushions and lantern-style sconces, this tiled nook inside the Mixer Room on HGTV’s Bachelor Mansion Takeover is an eye-catching retreat. A curved inset adds warmth and dimension while giving the tucked-away seating area an intimate feel.

Arched built-in bookshelves frame the fireplace in this living room designed by Scott McGillivray and Brooke Hogan on Rock the Block Season 7. The curved shelving softens the room's clean lines while giving collected decor and warm accents space to stand out.

A brick-framed arch turns this outdoor shower into a standout feature on Bachelor Mansion Takeover. Finished with warm-toned brick and glossy green-and-cream tile, the curved design brings old-world character and a resort-like feel to the poolside space.

Tarek El Moussa and Heather Rae El Moussa layered an arched mirror onto open shelving between the built-in white oak cabinetry in this bedroom from The Flip Off. The mirror's curved detailing, along with a dramatic chandelier, offers a polished and boutique-inspired feel.

Rounded kitchen stools bring a sculptural and modern ambiance to this kitchen designed by Taniya Nayak and Drew Lachey during Season 7 of Rock the Block. The seating echoes the shape of the island, where fluted wood detailing adds warmth and texture.

The sink area in this loft kitchen, designed by Mina Starsiak Hawk and Vernon Davis on Season 7 of Rock the Block, stands out — thanks to the arched inset behind it. Modern sconces show off the sage-green tile and accentuate the eye-catching curve.

Shapes collide in the primary bathroom of Bobby Berk's wellness getaway, Casa Tierra. The Junk or Jackpot? host placed a "floating" rectangular mirror in front of his bathroom window — which is framed by a graceful arched inset. The result is a beautifully backlit geometric vignette.

A vintage door repurposed as an arched mirror brings character to this bar designed by Alison Victoria on Sin City Rehab. Mounted behind the bar, the mirror reflects light and surrounding decor while tying in with the room's other curved architectural details.

On the other hand, this arched-mirror vignette — designed by Christina Haack on Season 1 of The Flip Off — leans less vintage. Juxtaposed by the fluted wall behind it, the mirror adds sleek visual interest to a design dominated by 90-degree angles. A light pink chair offers layered color.

This rounded doorway adds a softer touch to a galley kitchen renovated by television personality Tyra Banks alongside Drew Scott and Jonathan Scott on Season 6 of Celebrity IOU. Positioned at the end of the space, the curved opening draws the eye forward while complementing the kitchen’s dark cabinetry and dramatic marble surfaces.

Multiple arched openings shape the Rose Room on Bachelor Mansion Takeover, where warm wood tones, oversized greenery and plush seating create a relaxed gathering space. The curved openings separate the adjoining spaces while still keeping the room feeling open and airy.

To complement the large dining table and soaring ceilings in Casa Tierra, Bobby and his team installed an arched bookshelf next to the staircase. Styled with treasures from Bobby's travels, the shelving acts as a subtle foundation for the room's organic furnishings.

Alison went all out while renovating a warehouse into her Parisian-style dream home in Chicago. The Sin City Rehab designer added one of her signature accessories: A gold, arched mirror hangs over the "McMantel" she repurposed from her previous apartment. The effect is eye-catching and glamorous all at once.

And there are more arches scattered throughout Casa Tierra. This window — boasting stained glass salvaged by the family who once owned the home — shines natural light into the stairwell up to Bobby's primary suite.

Prior to the renovation, this bathroom in Miami had an awkward, angled layout — but it was nothing Divided by Design host and designer Eilyn Jimenez couldn't fix with a new configuration and clean finishes. A white oak double vanity paired with a stone backsplash creates a sleek foundation, while rounded mirrors above each sink offer soft balance.

A curved upholstered headboard is the defining feature in this bedroom designed by Christina during Season 5 of Christina on the Coast. Extending beyond the bed frame and partially behind the bedside table, the oversized headboard fills the wall with shape and color while drawing attention to its dramatic curve.

This time, Christina used an arched floor mirror to reflect natural light around this dining room from Christina on the Coast. The curved shape echoes the warm wood tones used throughout the room.

Page Turner created not just one, but three inset arches, staggered in the primary suite of her and Mitch Glew's Season 5 Rock the Block home (four if you count the massive, curved bed). The insets, which Page styled with sculptural vases, add dimension and movement to the neutral space.
