Kids’ Rooms Ideas & Lighting │Destination Lighting

12/13/2021

Decorating your child’s bedroom should be just as fun as the result. A kid’s bedroom is a place filled with imagination and endless possibilities, so ramp your creativity up to the level of whimsy!

Kid’s bedrooms should reflect their unique personalities, interests, and of course, their favorite colors, animals and stories. You and your child can work together to choose a theme and implement the design.

We’ve come up with a few themes of our own and paired them with lighting to match!

 

Whimsical

If your child’s bedroom is more of a play area than a sleep space, light up their imagination with intriguing fixtures and lamps! Is that a birdcage hanging from the ceiling? For kids’ rooms, it’s a good idea to add some storage units, such as bins, cubbies and clothes racks — all at child’s height so they can reach them — to encourage organization and clean-up right from the start.

Daydream

Create a dreamy space fit for playtime or bedtime! Imaginative lighting and ceiling fans will delight and inspire your child’s endlessly creative mind. You might try pairing lighting with special effects, such as adding little details like stars, moons, rocket ships, flowers, butterflies, etc. using glow-in-the-dark paint.

Modern Eclectic

Your child pays close attention to detail and has a strong sense of style. Modern lighting is a must for this effortlessly chic youth. Another idea to consider in this type of room or others, is having a chalkboard installed over one wall or as a portion of a wall, to allow for your child’s endless picture creativity.

Fairy Tale

From Sleeping Beauty to Jack and the Beanstalk, these castle-worthy fixtures bring the fairy-tale to life. LED tape lighting in fun, imaginative colors can help push this theme forward, and at the same time double as a night light that can help guide your child to the bathroom in the middle of the night.
