Remember a few weeks ago when I shared some inspo for my son’s new room makeover? I’m here with my first big reveal today! Say hello to his brand new cozy reading corner and a big sneak peek of his bedroom design. It was so fun to design this with the Organized Bedroom Challenge with Joss & Main.
Cozy Reading Corner
The best way I can describe the new style of his room is “modern lodge”. Like all of my designs, I wanted a mix of both rustic and modern and this time I want a bit of a ski lodge twist. Living in the PNW, we are a big skiing family and my son loves hitting the slopes in the winter. So that is what we are going with!
Room Before
If you need a little refresher, here is what the corner looked like before in his navy blue bedroom. I still loved this room, but it was time for a change and something that fit my son’s needs a little better.
Kids Recliner
You want to know something funny? When I asked my son what his top priorities were for his new room, the very first thing he said was, ” I want a recliner just like daddy’s, but in my room”. Oh my goodness, how cute is that? I found this adorable gray tuft recliner with this cozy throw pillow? It wasn’t hard to find furniture options for this space!
I would not consider it a true “kids chair size” but it is definitely a smaller sized recliner. It fits my son perfectly, he can cozy up in it. My husband is a bigger guy and he would say it is too small for him. If that helps you out at all? I think it’s pretty cozy though!
Wood Side Table
This little wood side table is the perfect splash of wood in here. I love the natural wood tones and the intertwined twigs.
To bring in some more of the mountain elements, I found this gorgeous snow print in a wood frame that ties into the same wood on the table.
Plug In Chandelier!
Every reading corner needs it’s own reading light! I brought in a little industrial wow piece and picked out this modern plug-in chandelier. I know people have opinions about cords showing, I tend to like the raw industrial look of them, but you can also cover them if needed. Using a plug-in light allows you to hang a new light super fast without having to hardwire it in or add another light box.
Green Color Reading Corner!
I cannot wait to show you more of this green, black and white color blocked room! It’s coming together so well and I love the new modern vibe in here. But hope you enjoy this cozy reading corner to start with!

How did you attach the chandelier to hang?
Hi! Thanks! It came with a few hooks to hang it from the ceiling, so it plugs into the wall and then I did a hook at the top of the wall and then where it hangs down. I might be changing this to make it look a little more polished.
