Update on the boys' dorm at Abbas Heart Ministries.
2024 was a busy year with the completion of the boy's dormitory project! The existing rooms, though functional, were not optimized for the growing number of children and the evolving needs of the boys. As we noticed the increasing demand for better organization and a more streamlined layout, we decided it was time to repurpose the space. Instead of building from scratch, we took a different approach—reimagining the potential of the current rooms. The rooms had a lot of potential, but they lacked the necessary functionality for a dormitory environment.
The design process was centered on efficiency. The new layout not only makes the space more functional but also more aesthetically pleasing. We chose durable, easy-to-maintain materials that could withstand the wear and tear of a busy dorm environment. With thoughtful design choices, the space feels modern and inviting, while still being practical for everyday use.
To ensure the dormitory was comfortable, we also added a window for lighting and ventilation. Natural light streams in, making the rooms feel open and airy.
The final phase of the remodel will involve adding those personal touches that make the space feel truly like home. From beautiful curtains to comfortable bedding and accessories, every detail was chosen with care. The result? A lovely, efficient, and inviting space where the boys can thrive.
With the remodel now almost complete, we are excited to see how the changes will impact the daily lives of the boys who call this space home.
