It was not to hard to please this Tweener. She made it very clear what her likes and dislikes might be. And lets face it, given the before pictures there were really few mistakes I could make. I made her space under her window cozy, bright and cheery. This built in yields LOTS of storage. We even had pull out trays at each end for soda pop cans, popcorn, and whatever else she may want.
The three pronged lighting was really cool to add to each end of this over-sized bench seat. We were able to find lots of colorful beads, and wire beads around the lighting fixture so it did not look so sterile. Do you love the fabrics? When I found these samples I brought them all and said, “what if we used them all.” Big squeal from my biggest fan.
These had special meaning to this young girl. Just inside her bedroom door we found the perfect spot to hang. Can you see where her sense of style and color were there long before she had this beautiful room.
In my experience this is the toughest age group as a designer. You have personalities of mother and daughter often clashing. As a designer, you have to step into the middle of the hormones of both and make it a safe playing field. This mother and daughter team made my job easy. Mom, was willing to allow her daughter do “whatever she wants in colors and design.” Mom’s influence was “as long as we have lots of storage.” I say they both won.
Enjoy!
