Cluttered Family Room Transformed Into Fun, Fabulous Space for Modern Family of Four (1x9)

: 17, 2011

HGTV'd and Design Star winner Emily Henderson tackle the lackluster, cluttered family room of Steve and John, who are the proud papas of two adopted sons. They recently converted the boys' old nursery into a multipurpose room. While the space has major potential, it's turned into a hodgepodge of a room, overflowing with books, toys, and mismatched furniture. What's worse, the room doesn't reflect their love of art and eclectic taste. Enter designer Emily Henderson to the rescue! Using her set stylist's eye, Emily transforms the space with the use of bold colors, artistic touches, and comfy furniture. From vibrant teal wallpaper to a gallery style art wall, Emily quickly turns the room from forgotten to fabulous! Emily also stylishly organizes the family's stuff by carving out a workspace area and crafting a beautiful, open storage structure with custom, built-in shelves. The piece de resistance? Secret bookcase doors! John has always dreamed of having a door disguised as a bookcase leading to a secret room, and Emily is thrilled to make this childhood wish come true. As the HGTV'd crew and Emily finish the makeover, it's mission accomplished.
