One of the most interesting branches of decoration and interior design is that of children’s decoration. Who doesn’t remember what their room was like when they were little? Old furniture inherited from siblings or cousins, furniture that belonged to the most distant childhood and accompanied us during adolescence, repaired doorknobs, nice and colorful furniture, proportionally smaller than those of adults, posters or children’s pictures, toys in sight… The space where a child rests also influences his or her present and future personality, there is no doubt about it.
At present, as for other types of decorations, there are trends, fashions or customs. We are going to summarize some of them in case you want to decorate a children’s room or redecorate it. We will start with the vinyls,
poufs for children
and lamps.
On the one hand, there are the decorative vinyls. A fantastic and fanciful way to give life to the walls with drawings and characters, without damaging the wall, with precision and brightness. They come in a thousand shapes, brands and colors, and some at very good prices. We love the ones from Chispum, Mimilou, or Etic Etac, for example. And Blik’s Muppets are hilarious….
When choosing children’s furniture it is important to take age into account, of course, and if the child is under 5 years of age we are betting on avoiding very protruding corners (for obvious reasons) or ‘climbable’ furniture (those of you who are parents know what we mean). As for soft furnishings, there are ranges of children’s furniture designed to be fun as well (after all, they are going to play with them too). We present, in case you do not know it yet, our Puff Pelota, the Marina Infantil and the Fiaka Puf Pera, which can be used as poufs for children and almost as toys that they can move and adapt. We also remember the decoration of La Casa dels Xuklis, with furniture made by us. And we recommend children’s furniture in natural wood color, such as those seen at Kenzipoo.com, or the solidary rugs from the Kala collection of Nanimarquina.com.
And when it comes to lighting, first of all, the more natural light, the better the children’s decoration will be. But if the weather is not suitable or there is not so much access to sunlight, and taking into account the night, which is a key moment for the comfort of a child in his room, there are some children’s lamps that we love, such as those of estiluz, discovered through decopeques.com, the giraffe lamp of leblon-delienne.com, or the amazing nightlight and ‘touchable’ of Boon Inc.
