Room Label
My Bedroom I want this room to feel more masculine/feminine/neutral
Neutral What type of sunlight does this room receive?
Mid-day light What do you currently dislike about the room?
The room hasn't been decorated since my son was 2 yrs old, so it's time to refresh. They want to change out the flooring, change the lighting and add a fan. They would like to use a full sized bed. What pieces of existing furniture, lighting, art or accessories do you want to keep in the design?
Nothing needs to stay, but they will need some shelving for storing things like science projects that are currently kept in another room. It is fine if this is out of day-to-day reach. Are you open to changing your wall colors?
Yes Do you have a preference for either paint or wall covering, or are you open to both?
Open to both Are you open to changing your floor covering?
Yes, Wood, Carpet, Area Rugs Attach a floor plan
Additional comments to designers
The clients would like for Pierce's room to be updated to a look that can last him through high school and beyond. They would like to give him a bigger bed (a full sized bed, as a queen was too large), and a desk to study at. He would previously study downstairs, but they think that he needs less supervision now, and can handle studying on his own.

Bedroom:
Since your room is smaller using a dark and rich color will make it feel cozy and warm, perfect for Pierce future studio.
For your main color, we chose to use white/off-white as it offers a fresh, clean, feel to the space. White and off-white colors are often a favorite for walls because they are light, neutral, and match most color schemes. They are known to make rooms feel more airy and spacious.
Use an eggshell finish paint which has a very light touch of shine (similar texture to an eggshell as implied by its name). This finish is very often used for walls and is more durable and easier to clean than matte finish
