Hardwearing furniture
Solid, well-made furnishings will give a child's bedroom a sense of calm serenity. Add a bold, earthy colour above a painted dado rail to make it a warm, fun play space, too.
The Ludo bunk bed is from The Children's Furniture Company. Find the ruler height chart and Natural Eden play table at Great Little Trading Co.

Use sisal flooring
A kid's' room should be virtually indestructible, but that doesn't mean a style-free void. A utilitarian, sisal carpet and muted fabrics mean you can use strong colour on the walls - and, even better, change it without replacing anything else.
The sisal basket flooring is from Crucial Trading. Find the skittles and skipping rope at Hen & Hammock.
