Timeless Kids’ Bedrooms
Designing kids' bedrooms that grow with them can be challenging, but we're here to help.
We have curated some of our top tips on forming spaces with longevity; ones that they will only grow more fond of.
Create a space that will stand the test of time. There are several key components to forming rooms that always feel grown up. Form a base, then make smaller updates through the years as their style and taste changes. This includes using timeless patterns, to layering sophisticated colourways. Take a look below and see how we're creating bedrooms for all ages.
Favour More Versatile, Timeless Patterns
Choose fabrics that they can grow up with, rather than out of.

Understated, versatile patterns such as checks, stripes, and subtle geometrics are sophisticated. These still feel light and playful, though. They not only have longevity, but also pair well with a range of styles. Use for larger furnishings in your child’s room, such as curtains, blinds, or even a headboard. Pair with conversational fabrics in small soft furnishings, such as cushions and throws. Choose patterns such as striking geometrics and florals. This way, you can swap them out as they grow older.
Use a Refined Palette
Add colourways that not only encourage relaxation, but that they will love for years to come.
Choose softer, more delicate shades of your child’s preferred colours. Earthy yellows, sage greens, and dusky pinks work better than brighter shades. Use gentle neutrals as a base. Incorporate brighter pops of colour sparingly. Use items such as your scatter cushions or even curtain fabric to do this. These can be updated more easily as they grow, compared to larger furnishings.
Make Your own Fabric Accessories
Let them put their own stamp on their room with fun accessories.

Encourage creativity and allow them to personalise their room with beautiful pieces. Get crafty with fabric scraps – this is a great opportunity to spend time with loved ones too. One idea we had is fabric hot air balloons. These don’t require much leftover fabric, and you can hang them just about anywhere. You can also create items such as bunting and even soft toys.
