  • Modern Design / Finishing Touches
  • From "DIY to the Rescue"
    episode DTTR-305F


    The Velasquez family benefited from the services of a professional designer who helped them define a vision for the room.

    To complement the room's bright color scheme, designer Anne Gray suggests pale contemporary furnishings. Trish and Gabriel agree that they want neutral, modern styles that will meet the boys' needs as they grow.

    Anne creates a floor plan that maximizes space, then recommends furnishings that include storage (one of Trish's request). Twin beds and a roll top desk should meet the boys' needs years from now -- even as they grow into teens!

    With the bright paint, floor tiles, modern furniture and the addition of a colorful ceiling fan and comforters, the twins have their own unique space that celebrates the best of boyhood.
