I agree with Elizabeth that I would note want to study inside this white box.

If you pull the sofa out a few feet so it is not crammed against the space could be a:
-Vanity
-Craft area
-Mail, bill, photo, recipe sorting area (Cute boxes and filing bins. Some times it is nice to keep these things separate from your school work area)
-China cabinet

Or push the sofa back against the wall:
-Media, board game and book storage

I love the color combination of pink and navy blue and/or grey. Preppy plaid, vinyl decals or temporary wall paper are all great suggestions. Like others have said, it is all about the shade of pink. Mixing with other colors or as a pop is the way to go. But I would encourage your son's creative input. You may have an artist on your hands! This discussion reminds me of one of my favorite stories that you (and your husband) must listen to about a boy named Oliver who wants a pink bike:

Here is some inspiration for pink and navy color combinations that are gender neutral. Good luck and let us know how it turns out!
