I think it’s really important to give kids storage that’s functional and easy to use. If they can’t use it, the toys end up being all over the room rather than put away.

Giving them space to draw and color gives them room to be creative.

It’s important that everyone have a comfortable place to sit. Even though this is a room for kids, Mom needs a place to sit while reading books or helping them with a project.

Even though this is a kid space, it had to be somewhat sophisticated. It’s the first room you see when you enter the house, so it had to look good.
