RIVER NORTH BEDROOM REFRESH
2025
The Brief
Our goal was to create a space that felt cozy and warm, using materials and colors that would lend a sense of calm. This project had a few objectives:
Cohesive Flow: The design needed to complement the navy blue walls in the hallway and main living area, but with its own distinct identity.
Moody & Masculine Vibe: We wanted to create a rich, moody atmosphere with a touch of masculinity, without it feeling dark or cave-like.
Layered Lighting: The space needed to be calming and serene, which meant no harsh overhead lights.
Practicality and Storage: We needed to incorporate smart storage solutions, including a creative way to integrate a dog crate.
The Reveal
We drenched the walls in a natural green to create a moody backdrop that flows seamlessly from the adjacent navy living room. The centerpiece is a wood canopy bed that grounds the high ceilings, creating a cozy "nest" styled with a palette of teal, orange, and cinnamon. By ditching overhead lighting for sculptural snake lamps, we shifted the vibe from basic to a serene, low-light retreat.
To balance the softness, we introduced masculine textures like wood dressers with leather fronts and gold detailing. We even swapped the standard dog crate for a custom wood version—topped with a large mirror to bounce light—ensuring every piece serves the room's "bold-curious" aesthetic.
