Back to School in Style

Think all dorm rooms are the same? Not if your Maximilian Sinsteden’s, age 21, and attending Drew University in Madison, New Jersey. If my Dad had allowed me to live on campus (which he didn't) THIS is the dorm room I would have wanted...well, minus the neck ties. ;-)



Drew Campus in Madison, New Jersey, is a beautiful campus if this pic is any indication.



After Max's first year of college he interned for his mentor, Charlotte Moss. About Max, she said, “Max has a gift and a great eye, combined with raw energy and enthusiasm.”



This may be the only "dorm room" looking spot in Max's room.



I adore the green paint color he chose for his walls...it's Ralph Lauren’s Tapestry Green.



I see my favorite "decorating" book of all time...An Affair with a House by Bunny Williams.



No matter how small your home or space, Max has shown us it can exude warmth and style. No excuses, now. :-)
