Design Challenge: This 8 year-old boy and girl were outgrowing their existing setup and needed to update their rooms with a plan that would carry them forward into middle school and beyond. In addition to gaining storage and study areas, could these twins show off their big personalities? Absolutely, we said! MOTIV Interiors tackled the rooms of these youngsters living in Nashville's 12th South Neighborhood and created an environment where the dynamic duo can learn, create, and grow together for years to come.
Design Solution:
In his room, we wanted to continue the feature wall fun, but with a different approach. Since our young explorer loves outer space, being a boy scout, and building with legos, we created a dynamic geometric wall that serves as the backdrop for our young hero’s control center. We started with a neutral mushroom color for the majority of the walls in the room, while our feature wall incorporated a deep indigo and sky blue that are as classic as your favorite pair of jeans. We focused on indoor air quality and used Sherwin Williams’ Duration paint in a satin sheen, which is a scrubbable/no-VOC coating.
We wanted to create a great reading corner, so we placed a comfortable denim lounge chair next to the window and made sure to feature a self-portrait created by our young client. For night time reading, we included a super-stellar floor lamp with white globes and a sleek satin nickel finish. Metal details are found throughout the space (such as the lounge chair base and nautical desk clock), and lend a utilitarian feel to the room. In order to balance the metal and keep the room from feeling too cold, we also snuck in woven baskets that work double-duty as decorative pieces and functional storage bins.
The large north-facing window got the royal treatment and was dressed with a relaxed roman shade in a shiitake linen blend. We added a fabulous fabric trim from F. Schumacher and echoed the look by using the same fabric for the bolster on the bed. Royal blue bedding brings a bit of color into the space, and is complimented by the rich chocolate wood tones seen in the furniture throughout. Additional storage was a must, so we brought in a glossy blue storage unit that can accommodate legos, encyclopedias, pinewood derby cars, and more!
Comfort and creativity converge in this space, and we were excited to get a big smile when we turned it over to its new commander.
Suzanne Nichols Design Group, Inc.This custom designed bunk room would suite a range of ages. Pops of bright colors provide a fresh and youthful spirit to the room. The custom designed bunk beds are fitted specifically for the room.
Thinkterior LLCTHEME This playroom takes advantage of
a high ceiling, wide floor space and multiple
windows to create an open, bright space
where a child can be a pirate boarding a
captured ship, a chef in a cafe, a superhero
flying down the slide, or just a kid swinging
on a tire.
FOCUS The tower and slide promise
fun for all — even from the doorway. The
multi-level structure doubles the play area;
leaving plenty of room for a workbench,
LEGO table, and other mobile toys. Below
the tower, there is a chalkboard wall and
desk for the young artist, as well as a toy
microwave and food items for the budding
chef. Brilliant primary colors on the walls
and a sky blue ceiling with clouds create an
entirely pleasant environment.
STORAGE To accommodate a multitude
of toys of varying sizes and shapes, the
room is equipped with easily accessible,
mobile and stationary storage units. Colorcoordinated
baskets, buckets, crates and
canvas bags make cleaning up a bit easier and
keep the room organized. Mindful that the
number and types of toys change as children
age, the shelving unit features floating boards
and adjustable pegs.
GROWTH Designed as a family
playroom with growth in mind, the room
suits the needs of children of various ages.
Different elements can be added or retired,
and older children can keep more mature
toys and games on higher shelves, safely out
of a younger sibling’s reach. Lower shelving
is reserved for the youngest child’s toys,
books, and other treasures.
SAFETY To minimize the bumps and
bruises common in playrooms, exposed
screws and bolts are covered by plastic
molds or rope twisted around metal joiners.
Elastic netting protects openings on the
tower’s upper levels, while playroom
activities can be monitored via any
television in the house. Smaller kids are kept
off the upper levels with the use of climbing
net and rock wall anchors.
