I recently designed a room that was once used by a teenage boy and needed to be updated into a mature, comfortable bedroom that could function for the now adult college student. I wanted to create a space that would also transition well to a guest bedroom later. The overall style of the house is Tuscan, with lots of reds, golds, and deep browns. I wanted this room to feel slightly more modern, but still flow with the feel of the house, so I opted for neutral creams, browns, golds and blues.
Floor Plan
Guest Bedroom
Since this room is in the basement, I decided to go with a light cream paint color on the walls and light linen drapery panels. The canvas art really helps to tie in the color scheme and I love the rich colors in it!
This project had a budget under $2,000.00 so we found the bed and nightstands on craigslist! All of the bedding, the canvas art and the lamps are from TJMaxx Homegoods. (Have I mentioned that I love that store? You can find so many great deals there!)
The artwork above the bed is very unique to this particular client. We framed images of the city his son had lived in the past two years. I love this idea because it makes the space more personal and yet discreet at the same time - perfect for a future guest bedroom.
I found this great desk on sale at World Market and paired it with a leather side chair. The metal accents in the desk, lamps and accessories create a more masculine feel for the room while the linen draperies and paisley duvet add softness and comfort.
