Have an extra bedroom that you don't want to put another bed in. Create a TV Media Room. Use a sofa bed for added guests, but giving you a a cozy space to enjoy day to day.


Recreating this space.  Details will include original items, but also an alternative price point to create a comfortable chill space.

When creating a space you need to start with a color palette. I tend to create spaces that compliment the majority of the home. We choose black, cream, and gold accents.


We wanted to have a space which served for guests as well as something to use all year round.



Starting with the walls we used a black silk, grasscloth that has a blend of the colors we wanted.


The Abaca is what is used in this room, price point pretty high. We found these alternative with lower price points. Click here to see how much you will need for your room. In this room I chose to only paper two walls.

We used a 65" Smart TV in this room to make an impact. We also staged the closet in this room to hold, snacks, candy jars, extra pillows and blankets and finished by adding in a beverage fridge to hold favorite drinks.

Start to reimagine spaces for everyday living. A bed room does not have to have a bed to still be a room to utilize. Especially for empty nesters.
