Children’s and teens’ bedrooms and chill-out zones are also getting more consideration in the style stakes.
“It’s more important than ever for children to have a place where they can relax and be themselves, as their individual space reflects their lifestyle – and most importantly their personalities,” says Olivia Boardman, interior designer at My Bespoke Room. “Their bedroom is where they have the freedom to develop their own personal style, and to express themselves as individuals. It’s a space they can be proud of, and enjoy showing off to their friends. “As a parent myself, I totally appreciate the cost of redoing a teen/child’s bedroom and how quickly their style can change,” she adds. “Using less permanent elements such as removable wallpaper and decals for example, or upcycling current furniture pieces can add lots of character without breaking the bank.”
