Project Minnewawa Avenue

Kids’ rooms need love too, right? As my client’s son is entering his teenage years and starting junior high, she wanted to refresh his space into something more teenager-friendly and mature. Call it a coming-of-age project! He had gathered so many inspiration photos and had wonderful ideas of a more modern & contemporary space filled with his favorite color - blue. After multiple great options, we quickly settled on Sherwin Williams Sea Serpent for that deep, rich & moody color we hoped for. We painted all the walls, leaving the ceiling and trim the original white. As for the case goods, we made sure to source modern & sleek Scandinavian inspired pieces. Specifically all in light wood tones to bring out that modern feel. We upgraded his twin bed to an upholstered tufted queen bed with a customized performance fabric in a deep black color - perfect for pets! Alongside a large fun swivel chair that every teenager needs in their space too. We grounded the space in a classic striped neutral rug, offering contrast to the moody space.

A Teen Boy’s Modern & Moody Bedroom Transformation

Aside from the main pieces, we made sure to add extra charm & character through the home decor. Bringing in different textures, styles & colors to the space such as with the marble bookends, vintage style decor, and also functional pieces like the faux leather storage boxes. This completed the transformation into an elevated and updated space that will continue to grow with him through the years and stay true to his personality and style.
