After
Anne and Owen Miller have $10,000 to remodel their daughter Courtney’s tiny clutter-filled bedroom. Courtney would like a room that is a slightly more mature space but still apropos for her youthful age. How will the designers propose to house a ton of teenage treasures in such a small space?

After meeting with all the designers, the Millers choose Diane Kremer to redo their daughter's room. Kremer creates a clutter-free zone for Courtney that will be comfortable now and for years to come. Courtney loves her new platform bed. She has so many storage cabinets that she actually doesn't have enough stuff to fill them. And her clothes and CDs finally fit in her room so she doesn't have to go downstairs to get them. Chairs on the balcony allow her to enjoy the outside, and blackout shades allow her to block out the light when she wants to sleep late. A few of Courtney's pictures add a personal touch that make the room all her own.
