"Project Teen Boy's Room"

It's a new week and with this new week comes a new design project.  Yay!  I'm really excited to begin work on another kid space.  Excuse me, I should call it a "teen" space.  This dude was a pretty tough nut to crack.  Pretty much all I could gather from the initial consultation was that he liked blue and maybe white.  Ummm....?  Thankfully, I raided the closet and found some pretty fresh footwear...

and a cool blue plaid shirt.  Honestly, that was all I needed to pull together a plan for a sophisticated, warm and modern space for this chill guy. 

With just a couple of tweaks this is what we'll be pulling together over the next month.  Having recently completed a super girly space, I'm excited to be on the complete opposite end of the spectrum with this one.

We'll be custom making a headboard and adding in some wool plaid and cognac leather elements.  The walls will be going white, more specifically Sherwin-Williams' Alabaster.  And to keep things from becoming too juvenile, we'll go with interest-inspired art work. 

This one is going to be fun!  Stay tuned....

P.S.  I'm so honored to be in the new Schumacher Bulletin!
