Bolder, More Personalized Rooms

Say hello to kids’ spaces filled with color. Let your kid express their individuality by sticking their favorite color on the walls.
“Boring beige nurseries should be a thing of the past—kids deserve a space that’s as vibrant and creative as they are,” says Jamie Gasparovic, founder of interior design firm Studio Gaspo.
It’s easy to infuse bright hues into your child’s room using a number of techniques. Gasparovic says to consider wallpaper; with both permanent and peel-and-stick options on the market in a whole range of colors and styles, there’s truly an option for everyone—including renters.

Decorative Ceilings
When designing a kid’s room, don’t forget about the ceiling, the oft-forgotten fifth wall. Go bold and cover ceilings with murals and wallpapers, or get creative by hanging multiple eye-catching light fixtures from the ceiling.
“Thinking outside the box for a child’s space; you can also hang objects such as balls of different sizes or several mobiles,” says Rande Leaman, founder of Rande Leaman Interiors.
Built-Ins

Custom built-ins lining kids’ rooms is a trend Alicia Hassen, founder of Brooklinteriors, believes will become more popular in 2025.
“A big pet peeve for me in kids’ rooms is various storage furniture that make a room look clunky and create wasted space between the furniture pieces,” the designer says.
Built-ins make it easy to streamline everything, she explains, noting that you can instead create a lofted bed with cubbies and an open area below for a desk. It also opens up the space, giving kids more room to play within their own personalized sanctuary.
This is also an excellent space-saving option for those living in smaller spaces, such as apartments. A lofted bed setup, like the one shown here, is perfect for a shared room for siblings, or could come in handy during sleepovers with friends.
Celebrations of Creativity
If you’re wondering what to do with all of the drawings and paintings your child brings home from school, put them to work in the bedroom instead of purchasing artwork at the store. Celebrate your little one’s talents by framing and displaying some of their very own creations on the walls.
Gasparovic suggests creating a kid-height art ledge that will allow young ones to admire their craftsmanship whenever they please.
“Kids can switch out art as they make it, and will love seeing their creations take center stage in their room design,” the designer says.
Another way to celebrate your young one’s imagination is to set up what Leaman calls a “creative corner,” devoted to art, music, dress-up, and more.
Creative Storage Solutions

Between toys, schoolwork, and sports equipment, no one wants to set foot in a kid’s room that is completely lacking in organization. Some sort of system needs to be at play in order to keep your little one’s sleep space neat and tidy.
While kids’ rooms need plenty of storage, these setups don’t have to be boring, and will probably be getting more creative in the next year.
“This could range from wall mounted basketballs that function as wall art, magnetic wall strips to organize toys or craft tools, and even interactive wall murals,” Hassen says.
Have fun with your storage solutions so that kids won’t feel like cleaning up after themselves is such a chore.
