Selected ProjectCashmere teen room

What we did

A teen bedroom in Maribor, partly under a sloped ceiling. The upholstered bed is placed against the wall, and above it are wall-hung display cabinets with dark frames, smoked glass and LED lighting – a place for books, collections and keepsakes that are on show yet protected from dust. In the evening the lit cabinets act as a night light.

Next to the bed is a tall floor-to-ceiling cashmere wardrobe, big enough for all the clothes. In the corner under the sloped ceiling is a desk with open shelves, making use of a part of the room that would otherwise be left unusable. By the window is an oval mirror, with a low upholstered stool beside it.

The sloped ceiling as an advantage

The lowest part of a room is often the hardest to use. Here we used it for a study corner: the desk stands where there is enough height to sit, and the shelves follow the wall up to the slope. This gives the child their own corner for studying, separate from the sleeping area.

Calm colours that do not tire the eye

Light fronts, dark glass and warm textile accents give the room a calm look. Instead of childish motifs we chose colours and materials that will still suit in a few years' time, when tastes change – only the bedding and decoration need replacing, not the furniture.

Execution

We made all the elements in our workshop in Ig and installed them with our own team. The hardware is soft-close, and we give a 2-year warranty on manufacture and installation.

Who it is for

For parents furnishing a room for a child or teenager, including in a loft or under a sloped ceiling. Send us the room measurements and we will prepare a proposal with a 3D visualisation.
