Things to Consider When Designing a Child's Room

Things to Consider When Designing a Child's Room

Have fun with it! Don’t go with the obvious. It’s an expression of you and your child!

Push the limit on your color palette; baby blue and pink aren’t always the answer.
- Children love bright colors and interesting textures
- Rugs, lighting, furniture, fabric, bedding, window treatments, wallpaper, murals and paint…so many opportunities for the WOW factor!

Remember that you the parent will be spending a lot of time in the space, so select things that will please you as well.

Plan ahead ordering and delivery can take time (often 6-10 weeks). If you’re a first time parent you don’t want the room to bring stress, you have enough to think about. If it’s an existing child’s room, plan to put them in a guest bedroom for a little while.

The room doesn’t have to be led by a theme, color or pattern can be the inspiration! Even sophisticated colors or ideas can be made to look very child friendly.

It is important to keep in mind the following items while designing your baby or child’s room:
- Safety
- Soft lighting
- Comfortable feeding area
- Play area
- Changing area
- Music & Books
- Mobiles/ Interesting Toys
