Seven-year-old Elias from Greece
This forest room belongs to Elias. It is a little bit theatrical: the main idea is it is made of logs, plants, tree. An oak tree with squirrels, a small pond with fish. The bed is in the shape of a leaf with a tiger head pillow, accompanied by a window with a frame resembling plants. To give the room a modern twist there is a log desk, tv hanging from the roof, and computer.

What is his favourite colour and why?
Mainly red and blue (because of Spiderman uniform (!), red especially for action/violence and blue for the sky).

He would like to have a nut shop having living squirrels as friends with him. He loves squirrels and nuts, too. He would also like to be an artist, since he likes to draw every day.

Ten-year-old Briana from the Philippines
Delicate accessories and modern furniture make Briana’s room a unique and dreamy bedroom. The walls are painted lavender, her favorite color. As for the bed it is located near the wall but still has some space to fit a banig (handwoven mat) between the bed and the wall. It is a bit big and can fit 3 people – perfect for sleepovers. She wanted the extra space for the mat to fit more people for when she hosts her friends. The bed frame’s color is white. Under the bed, you’ll find her computer table, computer and a chair under her bed. She’ll be using the computer for school assignments, playing games and watching movies and videos especially of her favorite K-Pop music idols. A vanity mirror was placed on top of her wardrobe closet. The lights on the vanity mirror can be changed to white, warm or a combination of the two. To cozy up the room she has a soft and fluffy rug. Briana wanted a room where she could entertain herself so she had the television placed on top of a rack which will be used to store the remote, her accessories, board games, blankets, and pillows. Being able to house all of her friends was a top priority so there is a sofa bed that can fit two people. Fun accessories were placed around the room, for example, on the top shelf are the letters B and Y. B is the first letter of her first name while Y is for her nickname. These letters also light up. The letter B is color white while the Y is lavender. The cork board is adorned with fairy lights. The lights colors alternate every bulb between lavender and white. Just like Christmas lights, the fairy lights have speed settings of fast, slow and steady. The board will be used to pin photos since she likes to take selfies and photos of her family.
Q&A with Briana
What is her favourite colour and why?
Lavender because it looks cute.
What does she want to do when they grow up and why?
She wants to be an interior designer when she grows up because she wants to design and decorate rooms. She enjoys helping her sister clean up their bedroom because she gets to organize their things and decide where put their stuff.
What’s her favourite game or activity and why?
She likes to go Roblox to play a wide variety of games. While she doesn’t have a favorite game inside the platform, she feels challenged playing time trial games and therefore favours games that have time limits.
What’s her favourite food and why?
Her favorite foods are fruits and vegetables. She likes fruits that taste sweet and sour at the same time such as strawberries and grapes. Her favorite vegetable is bitter gourd (also known as bitter melon or ampalaya in Filipino) especially when my mom cooks it because the bitter taste becomes very subtle. Any additional features of the room? The ceiling of her dream room is white when the lights are on. One won’t be able to see the glow in the dark stickers during this time. However, these stickers light up as soon as the lights are off. The stickers on the ceiling include stars, moons and unicorns. In the middle is a single butterfly that moves in a circular motion.
Briana’s reaction to the finished design:
“Briana said the room looks beautiful and she particularly loved how the bed, couch and vanity desk turned out.”
