6 Room Makeovers for Eccentric Homeowners
From Lynn on February 3rd, 2010 in General Remodel
Designer Vern Yip goes to town on a few boring living spaces. Here are 6 outrageous ones from Deserving Design.
#1 – This uber-masculine bedroom combines brown leather, black walls and red accents – a very unlikely color combination. With a twinkling background, it’s a Phantom of the Opera-esque fantasy land.
#2 – A creative way to make a shared room as private as possible, individual beds are swathed in drapery. Artwork inside each unit says “bungalow,” not hospital bed.
#3 – Locker rooms are typically smelly places where jocks hang out and make rude jokes. This design invites respect and conviviality with conversation areas, artwork and fresh-looking lamps.
#4 – Would you believe this is a garage? A fun transformation makes it a favorite place to hang in the house while still keeping it conducive to its original use – parking and storage.
#5 – An otherwise neglected hallway becomes a multipurpose dining and music room with eclectic yet rustic furnishings.
#6 – Decorating with words makes a big statement in this now-trendy living room. It needed little else than a profusion of black-and-white personal photos and travel mementos to make it comfy, yet stylish.
