Discover the top kids bedroom trends for autumn 2024

This autumn, the trend in girls' bedroom decor has been shaped by a timeless icon: Barbie. A Barbie-inspired colour palette is at the heart of this trend, with shades of pink, white and gold dominating the colour scheme. Canopy beds steal the show in these Barbie rooms.

For a boy's room, or for girls who aren't Barbie fans, children's furniture in autumn colours is an excellent choice. Children's furniture isn't just meant to look good in autumn; it can also stay relevant and appealing all year round.

It's worth noting that in 2023-2024 sustainability is becoming an essential trend in interior design, with the aim of reducing our impact on the environment. At Muba we design sustainable, European-certified furniture to do our bit for the environment.

The colours of beds and shelving play a crucial role in creating a cosy, stylish atmosphere in a child's room. Bear in mind that in autumn there are more rainy days and children spend more time at home. So here are some on-trend colour and design ideas:

AUTUMN DECOR FOR A CHILDREN'S BEDROOM

1. Beds in Earth Tones: Choose beds or bunk beds in earthy tones, such as Stone, Off White or our green Palm. These colours bring warmth and echo the natural colours of autumn. Paired with bedding in soft tones, they create a relaxing atmosphere. You can see more of our colours by downloading our catalogue.
2. Shelving in Neutral Tones: Neutral-coloured shelves, such as Off White or Sand, provide a versatile canvas for displaying your children's treasures. These tones also go with any colour scheme and let the objects and toys on the shelves stand out.
3. Vibrant Colours: Although earthy and neutral tones are ideal as the base for the room, consider adding touches of vibrant colour, such as our Lemon Pie, Truffle or Jamaica. These colours can be brought in through cushions, curtains or decorative accessories to bring the room to life.
4. Autumn Colour Combinations: Explore autumn-inspired colour combinations, such as Eucalyptus with terracotta tones or deep Malibu with gold details. These combinations evoke the season's colour palette and add a touch of autumn charm.
5. Themed Prints: If your children have a particular interest, such as dinosaurs, Marvel characters, fairy-tale princesses or YouTubers, you can add themed prints to the bedding or pillowcases. This will give the decor a playful, personal touch.
   
6. Natural Wood: If you prefer a more organic look, natural wood beds and shelving are an excellent choice. At Muba we design furniture in wood because it brings warmth and character to the room and fits perfectly with the autumn colour palette.
7. Colour Contrasts: For a modern touch, consider colour contrasts, such as white beds and shelving with details in Moss, or vice versa. These contrasts give the room a contemporary, appealing look.
