70 Kids’ Bedroom Ideas That Are Anything But Child’s Play

In this Florida home, design firm General Assembly doused the daughter’s room in House of Hackney’s Hollyhocks floral pattern, from the wallpaper to the curtains. So precious!

This cozy bedroom designed by ELLE DECOR A-Lister Eric Hughes is the perfect blend of sophisticated and youthful. The canopy bed is by Amber Interiors, the custom daybed is in a Holland & Sherry fabric, the Ralph Lauren wall lamp is from Visual Comfort, and the carpet is by Stark.

In this Hendricks Churchill-designed Manhattan apartment, a botanical theme flows throughout the space and into the daughter’s adorable bedroom. The wallpaper is in a Josef Frank pattern, the beds are by Oeuf, the Grain side table is from Good Colony.

Welcome to the year 3000. In this ultra-minimalist London home designed by Miminat Shodeinde, even the nursery follows suit. The crib is by Sebra, the chair by Ron Arad, and the trolley is by Joe Colombo.

A cozy reading corner is always a good idea. In this glamorous apartment designed by Jessie Schuster, the boy’s bedroom features a screenprint of a tree trunk by Jake Longstreth (like kids, they grow fast!) and a delightful blue striped wallpaper.

We love a good bunkbed, and this one is giving us the coziest vibes. In a mountain retreat designed by Commune, the walls are covered in a Kufri denim wallcovering that adds the perfect amount of warmth. Nap time, anyone?

All flowers, no allergies, in this room designed by Melissa Lee, which creates a garden atmosphere by enveloping it in Wild Tulip wallpaper from Soane that covers the walls and ceiling.

Take notes from this sweet yet sophisticated children’s room in a Manhattan apartment. Rather than paint every wall teal (or 2008’s iconic lime green), opt for a mural showcasing your little one’s favorite color. Whether it’s florals, animals, or scenes of outer space, the motif is easily painted over when they change their minds.

A play loft? Sounds like what childhood dreams are made of. For a son’s room, homeowner Alessia Bianchi commissioned built-in beds with play lofts inspired by a design she spotted in an old photograph. The custom chair is in an Andrew Martin fabric.

Let curiosity bloom by creating a bedroom with natural textures and flora-print textiles, like this classic 1970s house. A large, open window with a view will keep your keen little person occupied for hours on end.

For the kids who tell you they’re pretty, pretty princesses, the pink-on-pink palette in this room designed by Redd Kaihoi sits well within a cocoon of fantastical vines to create the desired effect.

For the little bookworm in your life, give them a private place to escape into their favorite novels with a reading nook. In this light-filled Austin home, various patterns in the same color palette coordinate without feeling too busy.

When you remove the threat of hungry bears and poison oak, a summer-camp aesthetic is actually very chic. Designer Victoria Sass proves that here with white oak cabinetry, bunks, and a “hidey hole” tucked up into the ceiling.

Ideal for cozy bedtimes and make-believe alike, this custom cabinlike bed frame adds architectural interest to a formerly unvaried space in a California home designed by ELLE DECOR A-List firm Studio Shamshiri.

You can never have too much storage when it comes to a kid’s room. And in this one by Pappas Miron, a window seat provides room to stash excess stuff while providing a perfectly sweet perch for the littles. Bonus for the wallpapered ceiling, covered in a Sister Parish print.
