Harmonious Color Design in the Children's Room
The color concept contributes the largest share to the visual overall appearance of the children's room. Not only the color of the walls is relevant, but also how they harmonize with the furnishings. It can be sensible to choose a rather neutral wall color, since numerous toys often already provide a colorful delight for the eye. But it doesn't have to be exclusively classic white – if your little one has a preference for blue, yellow or green, you can also dare to use these colors. To make a color seem less overwhelming, paint only one wall and leave the other walls white.
Rugs, curtains and details like bedding can provide color accents and contribute to a harmonious overall picture. Use friendly, light colors – that guarantees the feel-good factor!
Also extremely popular with children are theme rooms, which follow a consistent theme concept. Here you can create a suitable ambience through wall stickers and photo murals and create a fitting ambience. How about a palm wallpaper for a pirate room or a little crown on the wall for a princess room?
Curtains and bed canopy
Flowing fabrics in soft or rich colors give the room a soft, cozy touch. Curtains also serve some practical functions: on long summer evenings and in the morning they darken the room or can be used as room dividers. With a bed canopy you transform the child's bed into a wonderful retreat that conveys cosiness and security and promises a deep, restful sleep.
Bedding
With the right bedding you can set great color accents! Of course you can also pick up on your child's preferences and hobbies in terms of motifs. In the HABA shop you'll find a wide selection of bedding on various themes: from unicorns to animal motifs to fire trucks, there's something for everyone!
Children's rugs
Children's rugs are not only visually appealing, they are also a great surface for playing! They provide a cozy warm area, a protective padding during romping and tumbling and also dampen the noise when things get a bit wilder in the children's room! In the HABA shop you'll find rugs made of wonderfully soft fabric with birds, flowers, stars and other pretty motifs as well as play rugs on different themes.
Our ideas for theme concepts
Rockets: For space fans, HABA offers great furnishing and design options: bedding, rug and decorative light with rocket motifs set the right accents! In a hanging nook in color-matching shades of blue your little one can get really cozy – and experience a little feeling of weightlessness!
Stars: Stars are timeless hits and are equally popular with boys and girls! At HABA you'll find numerous furnishings and decoration ideas with star motifs – a fluffy rug, wall clock and night light bring the evening sky into the children's room and are eye-catchers even outside the Christmas season!
Birds: Birds are a wonderful motif for a lovingly designed children's room and bring a piece of nature into your own four walls. HABA not only has the right rug and bedding for this – curtains, garlands and many other decorative products enchant with colorful little birds and pretty floral ornaments.

Practical furnishing with stylish children's furniture
With the right pieces of furniture you can get the best out of every floor space – both visually and practically! The bed is the centre of relaxation for your little one, while the desk plays an important role for learning and working, especially from school age onwards.
You should always keep practicality in mind – for example, there are space-saving modular furniture, that can be transformed from a storage box into a table or a seat pouf. Make sure you don't clutter the room with furniture that is too large, and that all pieces of furniture can be reached comfortably.
Visually you can add great color accents with stylish children's furniture. If you want to furnish the children's room in a particularly personal way, you can also buy simple wooden furniture that you can, according to your child's preferences, custom paint and decorate.
Furnish the children's room age-appropriately
Children grow up faster than you can look – they outgrow not only clothes and shoes but also furniture. So you should always think ahead when furnishing. Practical, for example, are height-adjustable furniture, that practically grow with the children. Also when choosing colors and motifs you should ask yourself whether your little one will still like them in two years' time.
Beds
The bed is, for many, the heart of their own four walls. It is the place for retreat, relaxation and of course a restful sleep. A great option is the loft bed. It not only saves space and creates storage, it is also a wonderful adventure playground for your child!
Seating furniture
Seating furniture can serve many different functions – depending on whether your child wants to get cozy with friends, has to brood over homework or is looking for a place to relax. In the HABA shop you will therefore find a wide selection of appropriate products. While the desk chairs focus more on ergonomics, with bean bags and seat cushions of course the coziness and cuddle factor take center stage!
Desks
At the latest when your little one becomes a schoolchild the desk plays an increasingly important role in the children's room. But even in kindergarten age it can already be a great place for painting, crafting and creative activities of all kinds. A desk should offer enough space and a simple organization system to create an environment in which your child can work with concentration. You can find a suitable selection of beautiful and practical desks in the HABA shop.
Creating storage space
Simple and practical organization systems create visual clarity and save time when tidying up! For the children's room, wardrobe boxes and boxes made of wood or fabric are particularly suitable.
Here all the toys can be stored quickly – and easily taken out again when needed! At HABA you can also find boxes, which can at the same time be used as seat cubes and thus save a lot of space. Also practical wardrobe boxes, on which not only jackets and tidy-up bags can be hung, but which can also accommodate items.
Also, platforms with built-in drawers are a suitable way to create storage space. They can also visually subdivide the room into different zones.
Furnishing a girl's room
Girls often especially enjoy furnishing their room and decorating it in detail. You can opt for classic girls' colors and themes can be chosen – but that's by no means a must!
Not every girl likes a pink princess room – above all, you should ask whether such a setup will still appeal to your child in two years!
Just ask your little one about her preferences and design the room accordingly. String lights or paper lanterns, pretty themed cushions, garlands, curtains or other accessories can create wonderful cozy accents and make girls' hearts flutter. In the HABA shop you'll find many beautiful furnishing ideas for girls.
Furnishing a boy's bedroom
Boys tend to prefer something a bit simpler and not quite as playful as girls – but that's only a tendency. If your little one wishes for floral motifs or a pink wall in his room, cater to those non-traditional preferences too!
Many boys, in kindergarten and elementary school, are passionate about a particular sport like soccer or have a special interest in a specific topic like vehicles or space.
Incorporate these preferences into the design of the child's room! HABA offers themed cushions, rugs, bedding and many other furnishings in a wide variety of themes that will make any child's heart beat faster. There should also be plenty of room for the occasional poster of a favorite athlete or action hero!
