The first thing that I saw when I looked at this picture was the back wall of the room, with my attention first being grabbed by the poster. As I looked closer though I noticed that the entire wall was covered in not only posters but hundreds of baseball cards. After looking around some more I saw that on the other wall there were more sports posters. I think its safe to assume that the teenager is into professional American sports, especially the NBA and the MLB. Other interests seem to be Bruce Lee and biking. Osorio's style seems to be using objects and arranging them in a creative fashion, such as the baseball cards, the basketball posters and the hands seen throughout the room.
I think Osorio did a good job for the most part of capturing a teenage boys bedroom, especially with the sports posters and the unkempt bed. Two things that seemed more fantasy to me was the baseball posters on the back wall and the mirrored floor. I don't know if any teenager I know would go through the trouble of putting their cards all up on a wall like that, more likely they would save them in some sort of box like me and some of my friends. Also mirrored floors seem like they would be pretty impractical, and if other teenager's rooms are anything like mine you can barely see the floor anyways.
