Out-of-This-World Fun: Designing a Space-Themed Kids Bedroom

Embark on a cosmic adventure with your little one by transforming their bedroom into a space-themed wonderland. A space-themed kids' bedroom is not only visually appealing but also sparks imagination and curiosity. In this blog post, we'll guide you through creating a stellar space-inspired haven for your child.

  • Celestial Colors: Start by choosing a color palette that reflects the vastness of outer space. Deep blues, purples, and blacks can create a cosmic backdrop. Add pops of silver or gold for a touch of starlight. Consider using glow-in-the-dark paint for an extra magical touch that will transport your child to a galaxy far, far away when the lights go out.

  • Wall Murals: Set the stage for an intergalactic journey with a captivating wall mural. Options abound, from realistic depictions of planets and galaxies to whimsical cartoon-style space scenes. You could even opt for a mural that includes your child's name among the stars, making them feel like a space explorer with a personalized touch.

  • Celestial Accessories: Enhance the space theme with celestial accessories. Hang glow-in-the-dark stars from the ceiling, place planet-shaped pillows on the bed, and use astronaut and rocket-themed decor. Consider incorporating a constellation night light to add a soothing and educational element to the room.

  • Spaceship Bed: Transform bedtime into a cosmic voyage with a spaceship-themed bed. Many furniture stores offer spaceship-shaped beds that not only serve as a comfortable sleeping space but also act as a focal point for the room. To complete the look, add space-themed bedding featuring rockets, planets, and astronauts.

  • DIY Planetary Mobiles: Get creative with a fun and educational DIY project. Create a planetary mobile by crafting miniature planets out of lightweight materials and hanging them from the ceiling. This not only adds a playful element to the room but also helps your child learn about the solar system in an engaging way.

  • Space-Themed Storage: Keep the room organized with space-themed storage solutions. Consider using bins shaped like rockets or planets for toys, and use star-shaped hooks to hang bags, hats, or clothing. Practical storage can seamlessly blend with the overall theme of the room.

  • Interactive Learning Spaces: Incorporate educational elements into the room to encourage learning through play. Use a chalkboard or magnetic board to create a space for drawing planets or writing messages. Include space-themed books and educational posters to stimulate your child's curiosity about the universe.

Conclusion: Designing a space-themed kids' bedroom is an exciting opportunity to foster creativity and ignite a passion for exploration. By combining celestial colors, captivating murals, and thematic accessories, you can create a bedroom that transports your child to the far reaches of the cosmos every night. Watch as their imagination takes flight and their love for learning about space reaches new heights in this out-of-this-world sanctuary.

Pretty in Pink, Black, & Gold Bedroom Design

This bedroom was designed for a sophisticated high school student who wanted to transform her outdated “tween” room into one that is fit for her next phase of life. I had been playing with the idea of mixing a modern soft pink with a bolder black for a while and when this project presented itself I knew I had to implement the design.

Our goal was to create a space that felt grounded in its femininity, yet bold enough to stand strong in its masculinity as well. Think, “real men wear pink.”

If the TV were to look back at you this is what you would find. The way that the natural wood in the vent hood play off the wood floors and cocktail table are wonderful. We also brought a black wood on the framing of the chairs to tie in with the island and vent hood as well. Mixing woods makes for a very dynamic and visually interesting space.

I love how a piece of art can inspire an entire room. This was the art I based the entire bookshelf off of. MY goal was the mix metals and colors throughout to give us a wonderfully balanced built in.

Because we have mixed many styles in this dining room I felt it was necessary to have elements speak to each other throughout the space. The main element is the use of gold. You will notice that the starburst mirrors flanking the china cabinet, striping on the china cabinet, nail heads on the dining chairs and centerpieces on the table are all gold.
