Finding inspiration for boys’ rooms seems to be harder than girls’ somehow. So when I saw this gorgeously styled room on stylist Marie Nichols’ blog Whole Lotta Lovely I was instantly inspired by the simplicity of the colour scheme.
By limiting the palette to three colours this room has a real unity in its appearance. The white nicely dilutes the two stronger colours and the red highlights stop the blue from feeling overwhelming. In terms of livability I think it has scope for growth and won’t look babyish by the time your son is starting school.
If you want to get the look start with the wallpaper, this is Ferm Living’s Traffic Jam paper which you can get from Little Baby Company and the matching cushion from Cloudberry Living. Look for white in your furniture and curtains then add smaller dashes of red with cushions, storage and toys.
