DC Design House 2012: Missoni Madness

The Teenager's Getaway is all about Missoni... and Mid-Century Modern... and Coca-Cola (A few bottles were used for styling). Textiles by Missoni Home are literally used from floor to ceiling in this fun little corner of the house. Designed by Victoria Sanchez, the room's neutral wall color provides a blank canvas for wild prints, contemporary art, and old-school furniture.

Vintage pieces can be found throughout the space including the sofa and armchairs, which were reupholstered in what else? Missoni! Perhaps the star of the room, an oversized pendant adds a colorful punch overhead. The fixture's cover can be unzipped, removed and replaced with an array of fashionable options. So cute! Any teen who lays claim to this space is a very lucky one indeed.
