Color Block Toddler’s Room

May 30, 2012 by Jane F 2 Comments

toddler's room- mid-20th century style kids room with colorful wall graphics - Kleppinger Design GroupDesign-conscious parents opt for color in a toddler’s room.

Custom rooms for little ones often have more real ideas than other spaces in the house and this mid-century modern toddler’s room is no exception. Built-ins with color block components help keep things visually organized, beginning with clever wall graphics. Two painted-on cars are ready for imaginary trips on the meandering gray road up the wall or along the orange stripe that functions as an around-the-room highway. Such a bright color band cuts the room in half visually and keeps the sight lines focused on the floor so that the furniture doesn’t look like toddler scale. Instead of placing a table and chairs in the center,  a low island with shallow shelves on the end and a storage drawer in the center was designed for the same purpose and can be accessed on all sides from the floor. A kiddie sofa along the wall looks sturdy enough to withstand, bouncing, sitting or piling on.

I’m of two minds about TV in a room for tots but it might help keep them out of Mom and Dad’s bed.

Adult supervision is clearly evident in the selection of the orange drum light which must look a lot like setting sun by the end of the day.

    Hi Heidi,

    Thanks for stopping by. The entire room was done by Kleppinger Design. You’ll see a link to their site at the bottom of the post. They are architects so the entire room is likely custom but perhaps they will share their source for the table.

    Happy holidays! Jane
