Kids Play :)

One fun challenge every Interior Designer will face in their career is doing a kids room! Kids can be just if not more challenging than adults. Adults at least have a filter...Kids not so much, if you give them something they don't like you will know it.

When doing a child's room it is important to remember that like adults, kids are unique individuals. What might work for one child's room will not always work for another. It is important to keep in mind a child's likes and dislikes when putting together their room.

Another good thing to remember is that kids grow up. Just like trends kids change and what they want changes. It is important to keep in mind when designing to make a room that a child can grow and develop in. A few changes like new posters or bedspread can make a 4 year old's room feel like a 14 year old's room.

Super Cute Kid's Playhouse :)

Recently, I got to do project by pretty much by myself. A great client of ours had purchased a playhouse to put in her back yard for her grandchildren. She wanted a little help to make it fun and inviting for the little ones.

Outside of the Playhouse

Now the outside was already so stinking cute. We just needed to make sure the inside was just as adorable. Now the ladder and loft bed were raw wood, so to add some fun pops color we recommended they be painted red and blue. We also added a few window valances (done with outdoor safe fabrics) to soften up the hard edges and bring the colors together. Outdoor products are great for kids because they are more durable and more stain resistant.

Inside the Playhouse

On the loft we added a few outdoor pillow, and we did an great outdoor rug on the floor. Then we topped it off with a few lanterns so the kiddos could have some light.

The playhouse came out so adorable and is a great place for the kids to play when visiting.
