Bedroom Makeovers: My Three Sons

lolakimono — Thu, 05 Aug 2021 11:43:55 GMT

These three tweens/teens got makeovers at the same time. The idea was to design rooms that were timeless and that the tweens could grow into.

Which is your favorite and why?

I did not design these. I titled the post based on the TV show, My Three Sons, just to clarify.

If I had to choose one, it would be the last photo....more traditional, classic, understated. But that is my preference and may not be acceptable to a tween. If this was my assignment, I would go all out to address his passions in the decor of his room combined with quality classic traditional furniture. Bedspreads/rugs/window treatments/decor can always be changed throughout the years.

All of the rooms are good, but I like the first one best. It's very similar to the third room, but I like the pops of red in the first room.

I really like all of them, except for the chairs and lamps in the first pic.

Overall, I prefer #1. I like the prints used and it is just more pleasing to the eye for me. The other two aren't bad though. I do think they're too mature for teens/tweens even considering growing into them.

Is this the same room that was styled and designed three ways? It looks the same to me but option #2 looks like the furnishings are flipped to opposite walls from 1 & 3. Just curious....I know you said this was for three boys but it looked like the same room done 3 ways.

They are all nice, but I prefer #1 because of the pops of red! The 3rd room is ok, but rather blah to me.....

I like the first of the three....the other two are a bit bland for my taste. However I have to agree with another poster that all three tend to look a bit mature for a tween/teen.

i like #3 the best, but i cannot imagine any one of the three as a "tween" room. i picked #3 and feel like it would be a perfect guest room. love the colors, love the view. very relaxing and comfortable. (just what a tween is looking for? LOL)

I like #2 as I am drawn to the colors.

While these rooms are well done they are devoid of personality and much to old for tween/teens. I would be surprised if the kids had any input.

I have always felt as kids grow, especially as they become tweens and are fortunate enough to have their own rooms, it becomes their personal space and they should be able to make it their own.

I like all of them but #1 would be my choice..I like the use of space, the window, and the open look.

I honestly don't think teens would design or choose these rooms..they all look like they were designed by adults with no teen input at all...an adult vision of what a teens room should look like.

My fav is #1 because of the windows with the seat, and the bright red accents.

Number 1 is wonderful! Clean, crisp, just great! I don't care for either of the others.

The 3rd one is my choice. One could sleep easily in it and it looks more flexible to change as the sons age.

I like 1 and 3 the best because I like the window seat. I don't like the ceiling light fixture in any of them. I would love to have a room like this in my house.

I like the first one. The colors and placement of furniture timeless.

@lolakimono I actually like all of these rooms. Love the bookcases and the chairs or bench seat. Definitely rooms the tweens will grow into.
Actually I would like any of them for myself !
