Hailey: Hailey and Elwin here! Well, thanks for all your feedback about our rooms yesterday. Elwin and I are very excited to see who will ultimately win our design-off!
Elwin: Definitely. Now today’s redesign was a bit of fun for both of us. We redid the Kinzville Academy’s office. The secretaries were very happy to see us and they didn’t even make us bring a note from home when we arrived late.
Hailey: Uh, Elwin? We’re not in school anymore.
Elwin: I know. But every time I go into the office, I always get nervous.
Hailey: You did spend a lot of time there when we were kids.
Elwin: Moving on! Here’s what the office used to look like:
Hailey: Honestly? I thought it was cute. Outdated, but cute. Ah, Elwin! I see you took your usual spot outside of Ms. Cowoline’s office.
Elwin: That was the exact same couch I used to sit on when I was a little guy.
Hailey: Which means it’s time to get rid of it! Here are our designs.
Hailey’s Design:
Hailey: Having a brother like Elwin has definitely opened my eyes to the way kids see the office. I wanted it to be WAY more welcoming and friendly. After all, it’s the princiPAL, right? I decided to take a page from Elwin’s book and play with color. I added a window wall treatment, bright and colorful counters and couches, a new floor, and functional and comfy desks and chairs for the secretaries. In fact, the only thing I didn’t change was the bulletin board. Why? Because it won’t come down. The caretaker tried every tool in his tool box, but it’s stuck there forever. So it stayed!
Elwin’s Design:
Elwin: I have to agree with Hailey. The office should be friendly! I decided to go decidedly green with my design. Why green? It’s a comforting, relaxing color. One of the easiest colors to live with, and probably good for a kid who’s waiting to see the principal. I love the light green counters, the different shades of green, and the comfy country-western couches. It’s all about mixing themes, but having the continuity of a color to tie it all together.
So what do you think, dear readers? Which room is best?
I like Hailey’s. :)
I vote Hailey’s! It is very bright and creative and beautiful.
I will definitely be going with Hailey’s design again. Some of the things in her design I would change, but I still like it better. Elwin’s is just not my cup of tea. It focuses way too much on one color; whereas Hailey’s invites a lot of colors into it and makes it a fun place. Though, I would probably change the couch color because I know that most boys do NOT like pink. Thanks again for listening!

i like Hailey’s better. Elwen i like it but there are NOT ENOUGH BOOKS!
I like Hailey’s better because you can see right through the windows, and it is more inviting for the detention students.Elwin’s is to green and who herd of dragon flies in the pricipal office. I also think that more people voted for Hailey’s instead of Elwin’s. Sorry Elwin, but I think Hailey gets 2 points for yesterday and today. Try to make the themes more what they are supposed to be.
Definitely Hailey’s. Elwin’s design is just too crowded, and just TOO much green. See what i’m saying?
Hailey’s totally! :mrgreen: I agree with CLEagle6, WAY to much green! :roll:
it was close but i would have to vote for hailey again.

Again, I’m going to go with Hailey’s room because of the windows. Yes, the windows. The last thing I’d want if I had an office job would be to feel trapped. With the windows, you don’t feel trapped in the office and you still get the calming green that Elwin was going for in his design.
my fav. color is green but elwin u went totaly wrong! so hailey my pic!+country gal+
i like it b4 it wuz redone but if i had to pic hailey’s again!
