Every teen deserves a space that feels uniquely theirs—somewhere to unwind, dream big, and, of course, snap those all-important mirror selfies! So when we set out to design this bedroom, the vision was clear: something that felt playful and fun for a 13-year-old, yet sophisticated enough to grow with her in the years ahead.
The result? A dreamy space layered with soft blush tones, pops of teal, and a mix of patterns that bring personality and warmth. It’s a space designed to evolve, making small styling swaps effortless as her style matures.
Teens can be tricky to design for—they love bold choices, but in just a few years, their style might completely change. To future-proof this space, we started with timeless foundational pieces: a stunning cream linen bedhead, paired with a matching valance to elevate the simple bed base. This single addition instantly made the space feel luxe. The wallpaper added a dreamy, soft texture, proving that the right backdrop can completely transform a room.
When it came to textiles, we embraced fun! The mix of patterns in the cushions and quilt set keeps things playful, but here’s the trick: these elements are easy (and affordable) to swap out down the track when the next colour crush rolls around. We paired it all with the super cosy Everyday Quilt and Pillows from MiniJumbuk - beautiful quality and just the right weight to keep things comfy all year round.
Designing for a smaller bedroom meant every piece had to work hard. The gas-lift double bed provided hidden storage underneath—perfect for out-of-season clothes or extra bedding. At the foot of the bed, a Custom Blanket Box doubled as seating and extra storage (because let’s be real, teens have a LOT of stuff!).
The desk was another multifunctional hero, featuring two generous drawers: one for school supplies and one for makeup, allowing it to transition from study zone to beauty station seamlessly. Clever storage solutions like these meant we could keep the space clutter-free while still functional.
No teen room is complete without the right lighting—both for function and, let’s be honest, for the aesthetic. The custom neon sign was a must-have, adding a cool, modern vibe that gives the room personality (and looks epic lit up at night!). Meanwhile, Paola & Joy’s sculptural Kira table lamp on the bedside brought an unexpected statement piece that tied the colour palette together beautifully.
The finishing touches are what bring a space to life, and this room was no exception. The Moodyboard was a game-changer—this magnetic board became a space for memories, jewellery, and even a goal planner, making it as practical as it is stylish. The addition of florals was another trick we used to inject colour—whether it’s a vase of fresh blooms or faux arrangements from Rogue Home, florals are an easy way to refresh a space without committing to a whole new colour scheme.
And finally, artwork. A well-placed piece of art can tie an entire room together, and the Olive Et Oriel canvas print above the bedside did exactly that. The soft abstract design perfectly complemented the wallpaper and added that final designer touch.
This space was all about balance—fun but not too young, stylish but still practical. And most importantly, it’s a room that will grow with her, making it a space she’ll love for years to come. 💕
