7 ways to create quirky and fun kids' rooms

These days there is no end to the cool, quirky and fun style that parents can inject into their nursery. Designers and DIY enthusiasts alike are eager to add magic to their little ones' special spaces and these trends are sure to inspire. To stay on top of the latest trends in the nursery, here we share 7 ways to create quirky and fun children's rooms.

1. Neon Color Pops

Neon is back! We love the fun way neon accents can spice up any kid's space. But watch out! Use sparingly so as not to overwhelm the space.

2. Shared spaces

Space is scarce these days, and whether you've decided that your little ones should share for that reason, or just for the fun that sharing with a sibling can provide, shared spaces don't have to be rigid in design.

3. Geometric patterns

The geometric trend isn't going anywhere! We love how these bold graphic prints and patterns take a classic look, but also add a playful yet orderly style to the space. They can be easily adapted to any gender and also in shared spaces. Removable wallpaper is a great way to add some geometry!

4. Monochrome

Monochrome is the new neutral! This palette is cool and edgy, but also remains classic in style. The use of bold prints, beloved icons such as our friend Miffy or Scandinavian/wilderness influences make this trend perfect for children's to teens' rooms.

5. Outside In

The spirit of adventure is strong for little people, so it's only natural that they love spaces that reflect it. Using versatile wallpapers makes it easy to create a magical space. Bold wallpapers can be limited to one wall so it doesn't overwhelm the room.

6. Playhouse beds

Forget about dollhouses! We love playhouses and rollaway beds almost as much as kids! Whether for sleeping or as a reading corner, playhouse beds are fun for every child.

7. Designer furniture

When it comes to selecting furniture for every part of your home, well designed and functional is a must, so for your child's room there is no exception. For a long time, nursery furniture was limited to one or the other. There are now both beautiful and durable pieces.
