This monochrome marvel was designed for a three-year-old boy and is not only filled with heart and soul, its design crosses all age groups to allow for plenty of adventure and creativity over the years - from fantasy to friendships, sleepovers to study and everything in between.
Here’s our Room Recipe to create a killer kids’ room in your home:
“I love that we could do it ourselves – plus I’ve tried to decorate and furnish the room without breaking the bank.”
Camey, Homeowner
Ingredients
A marvellous mural – try Grey Mountains and Trees, Pickawall
Neutral bedlinen - try linen fitted sheet in Licorice, $125, Castle and Things
Layers of comfort – Sheepskin rug in Natural White, $119, Temple & Webster
Somewhere to sit – Homeday Mini Mod bean bag in Tan Deluxe, $180, Hello Little Birdie Store
Artistic injections – Handmade garland + Stag Clock, Hard to Find
Method
1. Create a snug base with a generous, textured rug to anchor the colour scheme
2. Set the scene with an inviting wall mural in matching tones. This was hand-painted by the homeowner Camey and her father in Dulux Black Caviar and Whitsunday Island, but if you’re lacking confidence here, try wall decals for similar designs
3. Layer the bed with hard-wearing high-quality bed linen that will last the distance through a few colourways
4. Add touches of trends with colour and pattern from fun cushions
5. Dot the space with pops of colour in meaningful pieces - like the upcycled bookshelf and garage sale bedside table
6. Make it personal by including room for handmade touches and displaying treasures
