Mittleman chose a dark iron railing for the staircase to continue the fresh, modern look. “The main house is more on the traditional side, but since this space is used by three teenage boys, it made sense to make it more youthful and contemporary,” she says. The white shiplap is continued from the downstairs entry, but the designer decided against covering every wall with it. “I left the sloping walls uncovered, because I didn’t want the space to feel too oppressive and heavy,” Mittleman says. The bottom of the wall behind the large blue velvet sectional includes custom storage that the boys use to conceal their sports equipment.
