I’ve said if before and I’ll say it again, designing for older kids can be so much fun! Especially when they are teenagers and are all into their funny inside jokes. A couple requests for this room were that he wanted it to be called “The Turtle Shell” and he wanted ocean art because he surfs. A really large scale wave canvas will sit over his bed in lieu of a headboard. The walls will be painted in Sherwin Williams-Maxi Teal. The room has a lot of light with window on 3 different walls so the room can totally withstand such a deep color. To brighten it up, I’m using pops of white in the bedding and desk. The ceiling will also stay white. From the ceiling will hang one of his surfboards as decor. Since we want this to be a cool hangout for him and his friends to enjoy, we’ve added this sofa that will also fold down into a bed for any overnight guests. I’m pretty happy with the results and can’t wait to get working on it!
