Name: Ros
Location: Bayan Lepas, Penang Malaysia
Type of Home: room in parents' home
Color Inspiration: I painted my bedroom wall hot pink a couple of years ago after being inspired by a TV series. I then went abroad for a while, came back home and just realized that I was stuck with a very girlish color. Instead of repainting the wall with a different color, I challenged myself to work around it to make the room look more mature.
Give Ros a THUMBS UP if you think this room belongs in the finals!

Color Inspiration continued: To accomplish this, I decided to use white, to help lighten up the room and to achieve a sense of space since my bedroom is quite small; grey, to tone down the brightness of pink while injecting a contemporary feeling to the room; and a hint of green, to make the whole scheme less boring. I played around with the color scheme and I think they work pretty well in the end.
Colors Used: The wall paint is Dulux Pentalite Easy Clean Flamingo Pink.
Color Tip: Always be brave to try out new or bold colours. With the right arrangement, anything could work. And, stand behind your choice of colours. Other people might not get it, but oh well, you’re the one who’s going to see your room everyday.

must be nice to fall asleep and wake up to, screams "absolutely no regrets" and "no depression!"

great with the rustic touches and moody window too, we haven't seen this before.

I like this, but I think the pink would be disorienting in real life, at least for me.

Love it...the pink doesn't seem girly to me, it seems glossy and sophisticated.
