The Art of Design
Elevated Kid-Friendly Design Ideas for Every Space
From Playrooms to Bunkrooms
As mothers and interior designers, we understand that a home is more than just a space—it’s the foundation for your family’s daily life and the backdrop for life’s most treasured moments. Whether it’s a primary family residence or a cherished vacation retreat, every home should effortlessly balance beauty and practicality, creating a sanctuary where milestones are celebrated, and memories are made.
For families, designing spaces where their children or grandchildren can thrive is often at the heart of the process. A thoughtfully planned kids’ area not only sparks joy but also serves as a vital part of the home’s rhythm, offering both comfort and functionality. From clever storage solutions to playful decor that inspires creativity, kid-friendly design ideas can transform these areas into havens where young ones feel a sense of ownership and connection, seamlessly integrated into the broader aesthetic of the home.
Of course, family-friendly design doesn’t stop at dedicated kids’ spaces. The rest of the home should also be as welcoming as it is durable. Incorporating high-quality, resilient materials—like performance fabrics and solid wood furniture—ensures that every piece can withstand years of busy family life without sacrificing style. It’s about crafting a home where kids and adults alike can live freely and comfortably, surrounded by timeless, enduring beauty.
In today’s EDIT, we’re excited to share how we brought this philosophy to life in a recent project—a family vacation home designed to grow with its youngest members while maintaining its timeless charm. From adaptable design elements to durable, elegant furnishings, this project highlights our approach to creating spaces that evolve alongside the families who cherish them. Let’s take a closer look at how we transformed their vision into reality.
At Cedar House Design Collective, every project is an opportunity to create more than just beautiful interiors—we craft homes that become the heart of family life. The Shore House Project exemplifies how thoughtful design can bring joy, practicality, and a sense of wonder to every corner of a home. From playful touches like whimsical wallpaper to multi-functional spaces that adapt as families grow, we take pride in designing for your life’s journey.
Whether you’re dreaming of a primary family home that supports your everyday milestones or a vacation retreat where generations gather, we’re here to make it a reality. Let us bring your vision to life with timeless designs tailored to your unique needs.
