Every parent wonders how to decorate a child's room nicely. It's a challenge on many levels: children grow, and their needs change with age<\/strong>. A baby's room certainly looks different from a preschooler's room, and later from a schoolchild's room. So how can you arrange a small child's room<\/a>, making future design changes easier and cheaper<\/strong>? Practical advice comes from Ola W\u0119gie\u0142ek-Kr\u00f3l, an interior architect and mom of a little girl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to furnish a kids' room? The functional layout<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dreaming of creating a special corner for your child?<\/strong> Before you go shopping and start putting your ideas into practice, take a moment to plan the design carefully. When you're planning a nursery for a new family member, it's worth approaching it like an interior architect<\/strong>. The professional method is to measure the room and draw it up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Measure the child's room along the walls.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Determine the ceiling height.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Measure all door and window openings: their width and height.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. If you're planning wall decor, draw so-called elevations, i.e., the width and height of the walls including openings, e.g., for wall lights.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Based on this, you can create a dimensioned floor plan of the room, which makes it easier to plan furniture and decor.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Create 3 versions of the functional layout<\/strong>. Compare them and choose the best one<\/strong>. This way, you'll avoid basic design mistakes, e.g., not having room for key nursery furniture.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Zones in a child's room, or how to design a kids' room?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    A nursery for a girl or boy should be planned several years ahead<\/strong>, taking into account how the child and their needs will change over that time. You can assume that a bigger renovation, or simply a wall refresh, will be needed when your little one starts kindergarten. In the meantime, though, the child's room will keep changing its character. Right at the start, you can define the basic zones in the room<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Defining the individual zones makes it easier to keep the room tidy and helps your child learn where to keep their things. With the right arrangement of furniture and accessories, you can furnish a small kids' room so that each zone supports different aspects of your child's development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Sleep and rest zone – the most important part of a child's room<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Nursery<\/a> plans should include a cradle measuring 90 x 40 cm<\/strong>. Over time, however, you'll need to bring in a crib with slats<\/strong> (min. 120 x 70 cm), and eventually a bed for an older child<\/strong> (approx. 200 x 90 cm). A practical solution is a so-called extendable bed<\/strong>, which can be lengthened as the child grows. Room for a bigger bed can be made, e.g., by removing the nursing chair, which a preschooler will no longer need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Play zone in a child's room<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    A nursery needs space for a play mat<\/strong>, the baby's first play area. Over time, though, the toys will start piling up, often generously gifted by family and friends. It's worth taking care of their organization and attractive display<\/strong> in the room. You can use shelves for this, e.g., for arranging stuffed animals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Tip:<\/strong> You can put some toys away \u2013 a wicker chest or a drawstring canvas bag works well for this. Toys that are put away for a while and then brought back out may seem exciting to your little one all over again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Study zone for an older child<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Once your child turns one, it's worth thinking about buying a small table and chair<\/strong>, where your little one can draw, paint, make collages and play with modeling clay. This furniture should be adapted to the height<\/strong> of your child, but you can buy it with a little room to grow<\/strong>, because young children grow fast. When planning the study zone, keep in mind that in the future the table will need to be replaced with a bigger desk<\/strong> with drawers for notebooks and school supplies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Storage zone in a child's room<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    At first, this area can hold a changing table<\/strong> and a dresser<\/strong> for diapers, baby clothes and other accessories. Over time, there will be more and more clothes, and they'll take up more space. Then you can replace the changing table and dresser with a larger wardrobe with drawers, shelves and a hanging section<\/strong>. It's worth organizing a small kids' room so it also includes furniture for toys, such as a display cabinet with shelves for books and puzzles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Finishing touches – how to furnish a small child's room?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Besides functionality, an attractive design for a small kids' room matters too, one that both parents and little one will love. To create a well-thought-out kids' room design, choose:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
