MAKEOVER :: HOME EDITION

We have had our own personal project lately - a bedroom makeover for Melanie's daughter! After a grueling interview process, she hired us to be her designers. We pitched our design ideas, took in her comments, and have created a super fun little girl's room.

Priority numero uno - hot pink. Number two - a headboard with storage. She had seen a headboard at Ikea that she loved, so we ran with that concept. We went next door to see if our friends at Knoll had anything lying around. Luckily for us, there were these 2 perfect white shelves that we could use as the side towers. From there, our friend Buck Cunningham masterminded the whole deal -

We took the dimensions to Tecnosedia, where they upholstered a piece of plywood with some white linen. We feel so resourceful -

Melanie's so handy


What a soothing color palette, right?

All-in-all it was an adventure! We had a blast thinking outside the box to create a piece of functional furniture for Melanie's daughter. And with a little blood, sweat, and wine we were able to provide an exciting new look for the new school year.
