This space had been used as a learning space for a family during the pandemic. Since then it had been repurposed as a storage space for a construction worker, a playroom for kids, a laundry room, and storage. Needless to say, this space was quite full when I arrived. It had been forgotten and abandoned. The mother was on a mission to create a classroom for a 9 year old journal group as well as to reclaim the space for her own kids. I was able to clear out unused objects, sort and clean toys and art, re-organize camping equipment, and re-beautify the space. I feel so blessed to have been trusted with this project!

This bedroom was small and open concept - with a limited closet space. I was asked to edit clothing and to create better storage systems within the room. I color coded the clothes and ordered them by type. Then added 3 baskets on top for large sweaters. The bottom shelf was used to fold and sort foldable pants and shirts. Then I added overflow storage under the bed and redesigned the closet space - to make it more useable. My favorite part of this project was redesigning storage concepts using natural wood and aesthetically pleasing storage systems. The client asked if I would make everything clean while also making objects easy to store and find. My own neurodivergence helped me to create a very useable and peaceful space.

This room was quaint and had stored many toys used and unused for two children with very different play types. One - more of a builder and the other more inspired by dress-up and art-based activities. The builder really wanted to see his completed work, while the other child wanted easy and accessible toys for her creative play. The sorting of toys was wildly entertaining, and it amazed me! I am constantly impressed by how many things can sometimes fit into one small space. The highlights were creating lego shelves, an art closet, and a stuffed animal hammock. We even added a little fort under the pinball table - for extra creative play! So much fun!!
