Contemporary Bedroom

Stephanie Laskow's stark white master bedroom is in need of a contemporary yet comfortable facelift.

Baltzer brings in a reflective surface with plastic mirrors attached high on the wall opposite the windows. The mirrors are flexible, lightweight and shatterproof and help to reflect the natural light. Three pieces are cut to size and attached to the wall with double-sided adhesive tape.

The old blinds are replaced with new white panels hung from a dark-stained rod.

Baltzer replaces the homeowner's wicker side chair with a leather and chrome contemporary piece.

The dresser is repositioned in front of a curtain wall separating the bedroom from the closet. The electrical cords are hidden under the floor-to-ceiling curtain.

Kivett creates a custom light fixture for the dressing area. He stains a 2' x 2' plywood board to match the furniture, applies a coat of polyurethane and wires the board with four light fixtures, complete with specialty reflective globes.

The bland closet doors are jazzed up with painted squares on each to reinforce the straight lines of Kivett's creative light fixture and the new side chair.

Two new table lamps and dark-stained side tables are placed on either side of the bed.

A red pillow is placed on the bed for a punch of color.
