The third and final instalment of "To All The Boys I've Loved Before" trilogy dropped last Valentine's Day, and just like the rest of the Kavinski-Covey fan club, most of us could not yet move on from the love story.
The hit Netflix series sure left a huge impact on our high school hearts. Fans could not get enough of Peter Kavinski (Noah Centineo) and Lara Jean Covey (Lana Condor) sweet moments together as level up from high school sweethearts to college students more matured for love.
But aside from Kavinski and Covey's romantic scenes together, one of the sets that played a huge part in "To All The Boys" series would be Lara Jean's bedroom. It is where her character developed and where viewers learned more about her thoughts, dreams, and imagination about her hot boyfriend and her future.
In an interview with Apartment Therapy, production designer Chris August revealed the inspiration behind Lara Jean's iconic bedroom, some hidden message from the bedroom decors, and the changes they've made in the room throughout the three-part series.
Lara Jean's Character
In the pilot film, Paul Joyal originally designed Lary Jean's bedroom while Bobbi Allyn decorated it. According to Chris, for the second and third instalment, he collected all the memories he gathered from the book and recreated it on the iconic bedroom wall.
"These were elements of her life, which is what a teenage bedroom can become [as] it shows the stages of a person's life," Chris said.
For Lara Jean's senior year, Chris gathered details that would remind her of passing through school and what to expect in the future a.k.a college life.
The Lara Jean Style
When asked about Lara Jean's bedroom style, Chris described it as something "very eclectic."
"A lot of sound art and sound pieces, it's like a suburban thrift store in a way. The '60s, '70s and even '80s resurgence has been happening over the years. We brought a lot of that into her room with colors and objects because they, like all styles, are cyclical."

Color Symbol
While Lara Jean's bedroom is covered in white walls and teal printed wallpaper, the "To All The Boys" series set designer revealed that they wanted the color yellow to standout to signify the huge changes in the characters' lives in the third film.
If you look closely, some scenes shot in the bedroom shows a pop of color yellow, particularly on Lara Jean's beddings and bedroom chair.
"Even during the pandemic, you see it popping up everywhere. There's a brightness that people are trying to add into their lives because they're missing a bit of it. They're missing a bit of the outside, so we're bringing it in," Chris explained.
Korea Hotel Room
Lara Jean had a vacation in Seoul and spent some time in a hotel room. Chris said that they picked a specific hotel suite that showcases Korean design, although they changed some stuff.
"We changed the art in the hotel room, and we added even more of a Korean theme. I actually went and shot a bunch of photographs inside and outside of some of the local temples and created some black-and-white art pieces, referencing back to the '60s and using those as a design element within the hotel room. We brought in magenta, just so our characters were within their comfortable palette," he added.
