Basketball-Inspired Bedroom

Kidspace : Episode HKID-201 -- More Projects »

Before: Occasional Guest Room
Evan O'Neal is a very creative boy who loves basketball, drawing and painting. But, you’d never know that by looking at his bedroom (pictured, right). Evan’s room is sometimes used as a guest room. There is a big futon in the middle of the room to accommodate guests and the normal sports-minded-boy décor is at a minimal. Evan’s parents want the room to be more about him, but, they still want some adult sensibilities in case they do need to use it for houseguests. Before the makeover begins, designer Sabrina Towns asks Evan what’s on his wish list for the room. He replies, "a basketball net, a bunk bed or trundle bed and a pizza maker!"

Next: Art Corner
Evan’s room is now a total boy's room filled with basketball items like a bench, lockers, a mural, and of course, the hoop (no pizza maker — too messy). The room is painted rich blue and basketball orange with a white foul line in between. A backboard and net are hung up next to the closet and the free-throw line is marked off on the wooden floor. The total cost of the project was just over $1,200.
