Inspiration- Big Kids

Good design is ageless.  I wouldn't put anything in a child's rooms that I didn't love myself, which means no tacky borders, no themed tv bedding, no primary colour crayola paint colours, no nursery rhyme verses....no any of it.  Designing childrens' rooms should be an identical process to designing a adult spaces; with the addition of a little extra whimsy that is.  Below are examples of how to do this the right way.  Beautiful textile, interesting pattern, bold colour and lots of love- all mixed together to make a sea of beautiful rooms that children are bound to adore.

  2. Same here! I like timeless kid's rooms. The one that they can grow into without changing so much. Have a beautiful weekend, Kellie xx
