Reiko has always so many ideas. She is amazing. I am a fan of less is more but I have to agree the transformation is quite amazing.

I’m sorry but a bin on wheels!!? It’s more than likely to be lightweight and can be moved easily regardless why the need for wheels!!

Too many pillows too many unnecessary object trinkets and books the carpet too busy the color palette of walls sofa and curtains dont go together….the lamps hanging over with wire too messy not relaxing womans cave.

Am I the only one who hates it when books get used as decoration?

Never say ‘mom cave’ again

Some good ideas. Tables are not the same height as desks, though- so the table will be harmful to the joints of the body.

What a pleasant room. I loved the pink & think I would have added that color to the wall behind the desk and to the back of the bookcases. As to the discussion about "Mom Cave", I think they were looking for a single-syllable word for woman. We need more good moms, but not every woman has children. "Gal Cave" might work.

I like the cabinets for clothing and the bookcase with a photo.

This room design will help with my standard one bdrm apartment. I have a red sofa to start and it's nice to see an informal design (many I see w red sofa are too dramatic w gold or all black). plus I need almost the same functionality.

What is the wardrobe cabinets from IKEA called? Did they come in that color or are they painted? Thank you

Okay, this might be "feminazi" of me to say, but I find the term "mom cave" as the female equivalent to "man cave" grating. It's not called a "dad cave"; it's a space for a guy to fill with the things he loves, where he is an individual free from the responsibilities beyond "the cave" and he can just be a guy, nothing else. The female equivalent should be the same and, as such, the name itself shouldn't reflect the woman in question in relation to the rest of the family, she should get to have her own space where she is an invidual, not a "mom"; being a mom is a responsibility and she's a mom in every other room in the house. In addition, the space is designed more as a family room anyway, so why even call it a "mom cave" to begin with, when it's not just for the mom?

now I want a mom cave! 😍
Jackie Peavy April 12, 2020 7:57 pm
Oh I would love to live in the cave. The only thing is the "tree" of lights would've chose different lighting
