Like her sisters, 14-year-old Larson Normark said she enjoyed decorating her own bedroom in her Brookwood Hills home. "I like a well-organized space," said Larson, who chose a coral chest of drawers to help store her things. A brass chandelier and brass-accented mirror personalize the modern minimalist design.

Through the years, the Normarks' tastes have evolved from traditional to a more modern, minimalist design. In their 4,200-square-foot home, organization and features such as desks and built-in shelving are key components to maintaining that style. "I don't like clutter. I don't do a lot of accessories," Caroline Normark said.
