What better place for two brothers, but their own private space under the stairs. We created their own hobbit hole, complete with miniature sofas and toys, and a cypher lock to keep out unwanted visitors. The chalk board panel on the door flips down so they can see who's requesting entry before opening the door. The chalkboard wall holds their artwork, secret messages and graffiti from playmates. There's even another door inside for a quick escape to another room!
