Children styles by Kimberly Grigg

As successful furniture shop in Cambodia construction materials informed, when designed the house, designer Kimberly Grigg got the chance to have some opinions of the kid’s space design from their own perspectives.

"Each child was able to tell me their likes and dislikes and favorite colors, and discuss what was important to them," the designer says. "The only overriding theme requested by the owners, was that we choose the sustainable option wherever possible."

"This daughter had stayed at the Michelangelo Hotel in New York and also loved the idea of vintage furnishings with an edge," says Grigg of the eldest kid concept. "We provided her with lots of places to curl up with a book – on the chaise, the window seats or on the bed, which has two swing-arm lamps. There are also lots of bookshelves and two recycled nightstands that we painted green."

"We attic shopped for these rooms," says Grigg for a shared room of two younger girls. "The tulle for the canopy in the green room was found in a backroom in our shop, and an old shelf became the crown. Existing furniture in the lemon room was repainted in a bubblegum pink. These bedrooms are also linked by the subtle striped painted walls – one vertical and one horizontal. While the ceilings in the other rooms are colored, these bedrooms have off-white ceilings to counter the busier pattern on the walls."
