apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time


Stripes Galore
Southern Accents

stripeseverywhereTOPPIC.jpgWe recently spied this boys' bedroom online and have been debating whether or not we are on board with its stripe-on-stripe look.

 
 

It can be a bit difficult to put together a stylish boys' room, so one may get very inventive. This bedroom featured on Southern Accents features striped wall paper with a matching striped headboard and curtains. To balance out the abundant stripes, the bedding is in a matching plaid palette.

What do you think? Love it or leave it?

I think it would be more visually pleasing it the curtains were a solid color...or even roman shades instead....stripe on stripe way early 90"s....bad form...but I love the concept..its nice to see a boys room that is not decked out in obnoxious colors and characters:)

that looks like a guest room, not a boys' room (it's not a guest room that particularly appeals to me, but it makes more sense in that capacity)

Far too formal. I doubt the little boy who lives there said, "I want stripes EVERYWHERE and silk shantung drapes!"

Cute room but how cute once you get all the boys' STUFF out and about?
