Furniture for Children
A child's room changes faster than any other space – what works for a preschooler may be too small in just three years. Therefore, when choosing furniture, it's important to consider adjustability and what will remain useful as the child grows.
Desk and Chair – Height Matters
The correct position for studying: feet flat on the floor, knees and elbows bent at about 90 degrees. As a guideline, for a height of 120 cm, the desk should be about 52 cm high, for 140 cm – about 60 cm, and for 160 cm – about 67 cm.
Since children grow several centimeters each year, the most practical options are models with adjustable height. An alternative is a standard height desk paired with an adjustable chair and footrest.
Bed and Sleep
In our collection, you will find beds in children's and youth sizes. It's important to choose a mattress suitable for the child's weight – too firm is just as unfavorable as too soft – and bedding made from natural fabrics.
A source of soft light is useful by the bed: a night lamp or a wall sconce installed out of reach of younger children.
Storage at Child's Height
The rule is simple: items used daily should be within the child's reach, not an adult's. Low shelves with open compartments and storage bins for toys work better than a tall wardrobe, as children can put things away themselves.
Tall furniture in a child's room should always be secured to the wall.
Decorations and Textiles
The character of the room is easier to change with accessories than with furniture – a rug, cushions, posters, or a neon sign can be swapped out as interests change. A whole wall can be transformed with wallpapers.
