55 Kids' Rooms So Cool You'll Wish They Were Yours
How old is too old for a slide? Asking for a friend.
JOHN MERKL
Kids have very specific visions of how they want to decorate their bedrooms, and those ideas are also often inspired by epic movie sets and elaborate fairy tales backdrops. And let's face it, the only way their bedroom will emulate the interior of the Millennium Falcon is if they hit the minor-league lottery. But not all incredible kids' rooms ideas live outside the realm of possibility. It just takes a balance of childlike imagination with adult practicality and style. Some expert interior designer advice doesn't hurt either, so we gathered our 55 favorite kids' bedrooms to guide you.

Leave Room to Play
Amy Berry incorporated a chaise and rocking chair for reading and brought the room to life with a classic toile wallpaper and framed botanical prints. Keeping most of the decor on the walls leaves more useable floor space so there's room to play.

Section It Off
In this bedroom designed by Heidi Callier, the blush pink curtains lighten the mood and allow for a sectioned off "play zone" under the top bunks. The warm browns and woods create a warm foundation, and though each piece feels kid-friendly, it also blends right in with the style of the home as a whole.

Pick a Statement Headboard
Arent & Pyke opted for modern, sculptural pieces that strike that very careful balance between playful and grown-up. From the striped table lamp to the wooden stool, graphic rug, linen bedding, and eye-catching rug, everything feels both youthful and timeless. The Kelly Wearstler-upholstered headboard is both sophisticated and wild, while the soft pink walls lighten the mood.

Invest in Ageless Furniture
Contained by goldleaf borders, the flowers climbing up the walls of designer Marie Flanigan's newborn daughter's room are actually mural wallpaper. Today, the daybed is "a cozy spot for late-night feedings, but one day it'll be her big-girl bed, with a trundle for sleepovers," the Houston Designer says. Stylish, ageless, multi-purpose furniture is always a good investment.

Encourage Their Imagination
We all know that children love places where their imaginations can run wild. Here, interior designer Amy Berry wrapped this boy's room in a mural of the Virginia countryside. "I thought of it as: How will they remember this when they grow up?" she says.

Display Their Passions
In the Hawaiian Kona-coast bedroom of a 13-year-old, surfboards pay homage to his happy place. At the occupant's request, San Francisco-based firm NICOLEHOLLIS made it a place where he can hang out with friends. "No matter the age, we always ask our clients how they live," she says.

Keep a Sense of Humor
Canopy beds are cool no matter what, a wild print makes one even more fun. Also, why use an end bench when you can install an indoor Lucite swing at the foot of your bed instead? Leave it up to Studio Heimat to knock the teenage bedroom design out of the park.

Go All Out
Is this not the coolest space you've ever laid eyes on? Designed by Elizabeth Georgantas, it has literally everything you could ever want: a distinguishable sense of place without relying on a cheesy theme; fun and one-of-a-kind architectural elements with functional value; cozy sleeping arrangements that don't take up the entire room; and plenty of accents that spark the imagination.

Make It Feel Like a Fort
And next in line for most epic kid's rooms that double as play spaces, we bring you this bunk room designed by Southern California-based firm Studio Lifestyle. Aside from being the ultimate sleepover site, it's also tastefully decorated. The cactus-print wallpaper adds a nice neutral splash of color, which is reflected in the curtains that deliver privacy despite being a bunk bed (and hopefully sleep-in mornings).

Blend the Best of Both Worlds
Arent & Pyke opted for modern, sculptural pieces here. From the striped table lamp to the wooden stool, graphic rug, linen bedding, and eye-catching rug, everything feels both youthful and timeless.
12 of 56
Add Dressy Accents
Not every kid's room needs to be overtly playful to be age-appropriate. Sometimes it just makes more sense to keep the kid-friendly elements subtle. Bursting with warmth, this little girl's room designed by Studio DB is going to mature gracefully thanks to the versatile yet distinct color scheme anchored around blush pinks, creamy tones, warm beige accents, and a touch of burgundy.

Bring In a Curly Slide
This isn't just any old slide, it's a curly slide. It simply doesn't get any cooler than this bedroom designed by California-based firm, Studio Life/Style. With a half-stair and half-slide hybrid, a lofted hangout zone, and a full-sized bed that still leaves room for a sitting area, we'd never leave this place.

Choose a Cool Bed
To soften the punchy stripes and colors of this bedroom, designer Susana Simonpietri of Chango & Co. hung a leather headboard that will continue to work as the seven-year-old boy grows up. "It's important to keep the child's current age in mind, as well as the years ahead of him," she says.

Make It a Play Room
Obstacle course or dream bedroom? Hao Design Studio, a Taiwan-based firm, used rounded lines and muted tones for the imaginative girls' bedroom in Kaoshiung City, describing it as "an adventure amusement park." The second level is a playhouse and that you reach by ladder while you take the slide to get down.

Spread Some Cheer
If a room could be a hug, this is what it would look like. The chipper yellow gingham wallpaper envelopes the entire space designed by Shazalynn Cavin-Winfrey, unifying the many angles and corners. The architectural quirks, along with the punchy colors and fun fabrics, make it feel like a clubhouse.

Put It On a Platform
A platform bed with drawers gives extra storage. It's perfect for all your kiddos' toys, or if you're lacking in closet space. This one designed by Studio DB doesn't feel overly childish, either.
18 of 56
Inspire Curiosity
Don't let that soft shade of purple fool you. MA Allen Interiors' client wanted a room that would empower her two-year-old granddaughter "to grow and pursue anything under the sun," so the North Carolina designer built in magical surprises to promote discovery and wonder.

Incorporate Family Memories
When her now 12-year-old twins graduated from bunk beds, New York designer Alexa Hampton brought in grown-up furniture and a custom Dean Barger mural inspired by a family trip to Rome. They share a room, "and that can be kind of a drag, so looking out of a fake window onto an Italian square," is some consolation, Hampton says.

Reupholster Furniture to Give It New Life
"Clashing is fun, and throwing patterns together is easy," says designer Fawn Galli. The trundle bed in this teenager's room is from RHTeen, but it's given a personal twist with new upholstery in a cheeky fabric. The glossy white egg chair adds a crisp pop.
21 of 56
Turn It Into a Bunk Room
When you have the space for it, why not build more bunk beds? The more, the merrier. Rather than just putting two queen beds in the guest room, Studio McGee added twin bunks crossing overhead to maximize sleep space.
22 of 56
Make It Versatile
Designed by the queen of boho-cool, Amber Lewis of Amber Interiors, this five-year-old's bedroom probably feels like a palace to its inhabitant. "I get in a time machine, think like a kid again, and pull in all the fun patterns and textures," the designer says. Exhibit A: the wallpapered ceiling cocooning the room.

Balance Fun and Tradition
Primary colors! Hand-painted details! Statement chandeliers! This bunk room designed by Bailey McCarthy is full of circus-like whimsy and vibrant energy.
24 of 56
Hand a Chair
Designed by Elizabeth Roberts Architecture & Design, this little refuge exudes a quiet cheer. The soft, pleasant colors are unexpected in a kid's room, but the playful motifs, shapely daybed, and hanging chair add a fun, kid-friendly vibe.
25 of 56
Paint the Walls a Fun but Versatile Color
"Less conventional than your typical navy, this striking green plays well with blue, red, gray, black, and even wood tones, making it the perfect accent color for a bedroom that can easily grow with its inhabitant," says designer Emily C. Butler.

Anchor the Room With a Statement
With subtle nods to the whimsy of Candyland, this bedroom is the perfect transitional refuge for a child. Arent & Pyke chose a fun, colorful headboard to anchor the room and surge it with energy without veering on kitsch or relying on an overt theme.
27 of 56
Make It Multi-Purpose
Fair warning: Don't copy this look from NICOLEHOLLIS if you ever want your teenager to leave their room and join the rest of the family in the common spaces. It has everything they could ever need, from a study spot with a retractable desk (easy space-saving solution!) to a comfy hanging chair, and a cozy bed. The raised bed and reading nook create an illusion of separation, really making the most out of one bedroom.

Channel Their Favorite Activity
Designed by Emily Henderson, this kid's nature-inspired bedroom doubles as a playroom. The climbing wall is the obvious highlight. The neutral tones ensure a more stylish aesthetic and the strategically-placed floor cushions lighten things up. There's also a canopy over the bed evocative of a tent, so the room really feels like a camping experience.

Customize Details
In this adorable room designed by Mia Brous and Kerri Goldfarb of Madre, everything feels as unique as it does functional (not always the easiest balance to strike!). The stool makes lounging more comfy, but it also adds a fun personal touch with the child's name on it. We're also loving the color scheme in this room. Their clients wanted a happy bright space, so the designers "decided to go bold with coral. Orange undertones keep it from veering too pink."

Play With Prints
In this boy's bedroom designed by Barry Dixon, the various prints bring intrigue to the calming blue tones used throughout. The canopies above the twin beds were inspired by his love of camping, infusing the decor with more meaning.
