The "pit stop" for studying was a good place to allow Mathew to pin up his car posters that he wanted to save space for. Apart from keeping him less distracted, which was a concern for mom before the makeover, the straight edged border is chalkboard paint, and give him a place to express himself during his study time. We designed the desk to fit cozily into a previously awkward nook, and the client had a carpenter build it.
