Whether a small or shared bedroom, a well-thought-out layout offers the three fundamentals (office area, play area, and place reserved for the bed) is essential. So, what are the right colors to favor for the sleeping area? What bed for the baby and child room? What storage and decorating ideas to optimize and embellish your toddler’s space?
Here are the answers to these questions, and many more, to help you successfully set up your cozy little nest!
Favor Soft and Delicate Tones
Before you tackle the furniture, it’s essential to pay special attention to the colors you’ll use on the floor and walls to transform your little toddler’s room. Believe it or not, they play an essential role in the layout and decoration of a child’s room, as practical as aesthetic. Whether it is a children’s or baby room, the rule remains the same: prefer soft and delicate tones. If the floor and the walls focus on wise colors, the decorative elements can afford a bit of madness: sheets, curtains, cushions, soft toys, etc. Orange, purple, yellow, and red are allowed to enter the child’s room, but gently, in small touches. In short, the room of your cherub must be pretty cheerful, and this necessarily involves the choice of soft and charming colors.
Practical Furniture in The Spotlight – Focus on The Crib.
The other golden rule concerning furnishing a child’s room worthy of the name is to limit the number of furniture in the room as much as possible. The minimum is sleeping and immediately comes to the wardrobe and the desk. Since your child will spend hours there, the bed must be as aesthetic as practical and respectful of French standards, especially for children under 3 years old.
If your cherub falls well in this last category, bet without hesitation on the crib. After 2 years, opt for a tiny bed or an evolving bed that allows you to adapt to the evolution of your toddler. Other possibilities? Trundle bed, mezzanine bed, cabin bed, retractable bed, or even child’s bed with storage. As for the latter, choose a model with drawers that slide easily and are equipped with a security system.
For a child’s room that is both practical and fun, I prefer fun and easy-to-access storage. Finally, if your child is old enough to have an office, opt again for a scalable model.
Opt For The Cabin Bed
Children’s bedrooms are very often overloaded with toys. To succeed in the decoration and layout of this room, it is important to consider your toddler’s age. If it is very small, decorate according to your desires. No need to overload the space with a multitude of decorative objects. Choose accessories that are simple, smart, and practical to use. No need to go for something new and sophisticated at all costs. Install small frames and a mirror in the room’s spirit on the walls.
A nice rug in soft tones or patterned wallpaper will also do very well to brighten up the space. Stock up on cushions to transform the sleeping area into an aesthetic and comfortable bench. Does your child quickly get bored of their furniture or tend to write on the walls? Do not panic! Some stickers and murals will save your life. Does he have a creative streak? Let him express himself by creating a wall of drawings using slate paint. You can also find original decorative objects with him to make his room even more unique and personalized. The flea markets offer a multitude of objects that will decorate it brilliantly.
The Decorative Idea is to Delimit The Spaces in The Child’s Room
As a general rule, the children’s room is a fairly complex room offering several varied activities: playing, sleeping, learning, working, etc. This is why, during its development, it is essential to think about distinguishing the zones in question. For this purpose, some solutions are necessary. Original and practical, the separation bookcase is perfect for delimiting the office area and separating it from the bed. A few rugs on the floor can also help your little one understand that each room part is reserved for a particular activity. A light for each zone can also participate in this delimitation effect.
To Conclude,
To successfully design your little one’s room, the most important thing is to adapt to his age to define his needs in terms of modern and complementary furniture and decorative objects.
