A 13 year old girl is given her own room to suit her personal needs. The goal of this remodeling project is to keep the structure of the room, but to make it more functional for teenage use. The room has a built in piece of furniture with shelves and drawers that are perfect for storage, so various size boxes are added to maximize the space. A work area and a reading corner are being incorporated to allow for greater use of the room. The colors are kept in the pink and green families with lots of floral design to give the room a young and fresh atmosphere.
