Have you seen Hibou Home’s new wallpaper designs for kids? They’re simply adorable, with these Star and Portraits designs being my favourites.
I love the slight metallic sheen on the Stellar Blue colour way above. This design would be equally at home in a nursery or a teen room, don’t you think? The subtle golden accents on the otherwise monochrome Portraits wallpaper are such a sweet touch too – who wouldn’t like these little friends in their room?

My latest edit for Mr Fox magazine rounds up the best clip and clamp lights for boys rooms. These make perfect reading lights on bunk beds, but can also be used to wash a wall or ceiling to light up a dim corner. Find out where to buy the most stylish over at Mr Fox.

I recently designed this green kid’s room, a big boy room for Dylan. He had outgrown his nursery and Dylan’s parents asked me to help them turn a small guest bedroom into a special room for their son.
To stop the room from feeling “bitty” and crowded with lots of freestanding storage solutions, I designed a bed with storage drawers and chunky floating shelves around the chimney breast. The wall and joinery were painted in the same colour to create a feature wall.
The rest of the room was kept light and simple, with timber accents to add warmth to the room. You can see a bit more of the room here.
