Growing together with the bedroom – 7 tips for kids’ room decor
Designed by interior architect agency, Fyra, the Fem desk can easily be adjusted to fit various needs: the clever design can be for example turned into a shelving unit.
1. Use multi-functional furniture
Think beyond purchasing conventional kids' fixtures and consider double-duty furniture instead, especially for small spaces! Made by Choice’s Fem desk is an ideal, practical piece of furniture that is designed to acknowledge the needs and demands of its individual users, regardless of age. With a simple and adaptable frame, it allows for multiple configurations, from functioning as a display or storage shelf unit to a working desk.

Not only is this iconic lamp a functional and atmospheric luminaire by the child's bed, but it can also help to bring a pop of energy with its vibrant range of colors to select from.
