Jude moved into a new room months ago, and I just got around to taking a few pics of it the other day. It's the kind of room that a little boy lives in, with a real bed. (In fact, I just went to check on him during his nap and found him sleeping under the bed. Whatever works.)
I think every house has a word that describes how it feels when you walk in. Ours is probably earthy. Earth tones, Marushka silk screen canvases from the 70's, a smattering of mostly second-hand furniture that was made between the decades of 1920 and 1960.
I like old stuff, for sure, but in Jude's room I wanted to lighten it up a bit. Because my only complaint about some parts of our house is that they're dominated by the same old-furniture brown color.
So... I made him a peaceful, vibrant, not-brown little nook to be in whenever he wants to. I pictured him in it, pushing his trucks around and making a motor sound with his mouth, paging through the books on his not-brown bookshelf.
It's my new favorite room in the house.
