Designing a kid's bedroom is like walking a tightrope between playful imagination and long-lasting functionality.
While it's tempting to indulge in your child's latest craze, like cartoon themes or their favourite sports team—those fleeting passions can quickly leave the bedroom feeling outdated. Striking the perfect balance between fun and safety is key, and with a little clever planning, you can create a room that your child will love and adore for years to come.
Below are thoughtful and imaginative design tips for curating a versatile, functional, and aesthetically pleasing kid's room decor.
One of the most prevalent challenges in designing kids’ rooms, especially in smaller homes or apartments, is working with limited space. Maximising every inch of the room without making it feel cluttered or cramped can be tricky. Opt for glass partitions to create separate zones for play, study, and sleep without closing off the space entirely.
Colorful glass partitions
Reflective surfaces like mirrors placed opposite to the windows or lacquered glass backdrops can give the illusion of a larger room, brightening the interiors. Consider space-saving solutions like multifunctional furniture—bunk beds with built-in storage, foldable desks, and wall-mounted glass shelves.
Kids accumulate a lot of toys, books, and clothes over time, which may turn their room into a whirlwind of clutter. The smart choice is to opt for storage solutions that are functional yet visually appealing.
Built in lacquered glass cabinets
Built-in cabinets with vibrant lacquered glass shutters or UV-printed glass offer multiple possibilities for personalisation and add a contemporary touch to kid’s room decor.

Safety is paramount when designing children’s bedrooms. Ensure the furniture is sturdy, safe, free from sharp edges, and clear of electrical hazards. For partitions, desks, or shelves, opt for toughened or toughened laminated glass to reduce the risk of injury while maintaining a streamlined, modern aesthetic.
Shatterproof mirrors on wardrobe shutters
Additionally, prioritize shatterproof options for mirrors on wardrobe shutters or dressers. SGG Mirasafe by Saint-Gobain, with its patented shatterproof coating, offers both style and safety, providing a secure environment for the kid's room.
Children grow quickly, and their needs evolve just as fast. Designing a room that can adapt to these changing needs can be challenging. Consider flexible and adaptable choices that balance the room with character and harmony. Lacquered glass tabletops paired with adjustable supports can be the perfect choice to create a study table. Explore glass panels sandwiched with posters or your children's artwork, turning wardrobe shutters or wall features into personalized, creative expressions that add a playful and artistic touch to their space.

How can I make my kids' room more functional?
When designing a kid’s room, choose modular furniture like Murphy beds or loft beds with study spaces and wall-mounted racks for storage. Explore lacquered glass for writing and magnetic mounting and convert walls into exciting and interactive surfaces. These smart solutions offer flexibility to play, learn or rest.
What colour scheme is suitable for a kids' room?
Kids' choice of colours changes as they grow. Bold, lively colours and pastel hues work well for toddlers and younger children, adding zest and energy to the space. Meanwhile, teens prefer neutral colours or earthy tones with a mix of vibrant hues to personalise the design scheme. Lacquered glass comes in a variety of colours to complement the kid's room interiors.
How can I ensure safety in a kids' room?
Choose sturdy furniture and materials and avoid sharp edges. Opt for toughened glass solutions (whether used in tints, shades, or accents) to minimise injury risks. Install shatterproof mirrors and keep electrical outlets covered for a secure environment.
