There will be no need to compromise between appearance and practicality. Leading Scandinavian design brands like to point out that functional and high-quality furniture for children doesn't have to mean uninteresting in shape or colour. Quite the opposite.
When choosing combinations of shades that are fine-tuned with stylish accessories down to the last detail, you can be guided by one of the selections tailor-made for schoolchildren. It's the accessories or wallpapers that children love to help you choose, and you can let them have a free hand. They will feel all the more comfortable in their newly furnished room.
In neutral tones
If you want your children's room to grow with them into their teens, choose neutral colours that complement the wooden furniture and give the room a harmonious atmosphere. A wallpaper with beautiful illustrations by British illustrator Katie Scott would be a good choice.
