Teen Girl's Lavender Bedroom

This beautiful bedroom was designed for a teen girl and has custom made wall units to create storage space beneath sloped ceilings. The bed is complete with purple pillows, satin sheets, and a well-loved toy. Custom made bedding in satin and velvet pairs luxuriously with the delicate sheer lace drapery. The oversized chandelier is made of tiny porcelain flowers and hangs over a custom made bed fitted for sloped ceilings. This bedroom is the ideal sanctuary with lavender walls and a dark violet velvet armchair with tufted button back and cabriole legs.

Carvings, sketches and miniature sculpture make for an assortment of personal treasures.

Custom built-in floating bedside tables provide storage for books, objects of art and a concealed outlet for charging electronics. A collection of carved and painted boxes paired with a whimsical succulent arrangement rest on a custom built-in floating bedside table. Sarah worked closely with the client's teenage daughter to curate a collection of her best travel photographs, ultimately matted and framed in antiqued silver.

California Dreamers: Little Girl's Blue, Pink & Green Bedroom

Here we have a little girl's bedroom in pink, pale blue and grass green. The fuchsia bench features hidden storage to tuck away toys and blankets. Antique white furnishings and bedding are the perfect pairings with a host of pink, blue and green accents. A re-purposed chandelier finds new life with a simple visit to the painter's studio. A desk once belonging to her older sister gets a personalized makeover for the youngest girl in the house. The delightfully delicate clear Lucite chair adds a feminine whimsy to the pale blue desk.

Vintage hobnail milk glass and pretty pink ranunculus add a delicate beauty to this little girl's desk. An old brass rocking horse from the 1960s sits among a collection of other delightful works of art, a unicorn sculpture from an artist in Slovenia and a watercolor by Klay Arsenault.

Sheer white drapery panels frame the four posters of the bed in this little girl's room. On the bedside table, a charming ceramic vase in the shape of a friendly kitten wears a silly hat of tiny pink ranunculus. Handmade porcelain flowers cluster together in this pretty wall sconce featured bedside. The view out the window is a beautiful backdrop for an oversized reading chair in antique white and fuchsia pink. In pink, green and white, delicate pom-pom fringe trim the edge of this custom drapery.

California Dreamers: Victorian + Bohemian Teen Bedroom

This teen girl's room comes to life with colorful bohemian "Scandifornian" elements inspired by Scandinavia, influenced by Southern California life and antique white furniture inspired by the Queen Anne style. Fuchsia, teal, apricot, and gold--together at last! This teen girl's bedroom color palette expresses her youth and energy. A vintage hobnail glass vase sits among fine art by Renae Barnard and Melissa Halozan on the teen girl's bedroom nightstand.

The textured chartreuse throw, the teal bedding and handmade draperies banded with colorful embroidery in shades of fuchsia, teal, chartreuse, and gold bring the luxury. A vintage-inspired desk and Queen Anne chair are the perfect combination. An articulating desk lamp adds a pop of aqua to the teen girl's study area. Vibrant protea flowers converse with draping amaranthus.

Sarah Barnard designed the custom brushed brass ladder and bed rail to complement the antique metal finishes throughout the boys' bedroom. Each bunk bed has a pair of blue linen draperies lined with black-out lining. The drapes fit neatly into custom grooves in the bunks so that everything stays just where it belongs.

Geometric wallpaper in navy, teal, and oatmeal creates visual appeal in the boys' bedroom. The vintage-inspired brass and black chandelier make the room glow with warm diffuse light. Handmade American walnut floating desks paired with small scale marble lamps provide each boy their own study space. Each boy's desk includes a utility wall with a chalkboard, pin board, metal panel for magnets and whiteboard calendar.
