Hi Charlotte, I’d add a pretty wall storage with baskets or similar to the fireplace alcoves and move the”kitchen” to the left closer to the door. Add a rug under the table and a quirky mural on the alcove wall. I’d make it child friendly and colourful but look bit more age neutral, since the room will be used for adults too.

A nice big Kallax against the wall with interior door. Small play table under the narrow window. Kitchen and such in the left alcove. A soothing sage on the walls. Probably change the carpet too, but for now it'll do. Leave some open floorspace near the garden doors for playing.

Can you not try a panelled screen to block off the view of the oven/college? A rug on the floor would help and throw/cushions for the bed. If you can't hang pictures try posters on the wall with blue tac

Hi Charlotte,

It depends on how you use the space currently or how your envisage using it. It looks like there is quite a bit of space in front of the bay window, so I would move the dining table a bit closer to the window.

In terms of the play area it looks like your children congregate on the opposite side of the room? If so I would make this space theirs by adding this simple storage by IKEA where you toys can be stored easily in baskets. I would measure up to see if you can add a second one on top or on the adjoining wall with the radiator.

There are different colours and textures the above is just to give you an idea. In terms of the rest of the look and feel I would avoid decorating the whole room with bright colours etc. You can of course make it work so that you can have accents in the accessories which co-incide with the children's toys. e.g. brightly coloured vase.

Hope this helps

Thanks
