Traditionally, black has not enjoyed an obvious association with kids’ rooms or fashion, aside from a few swirly board books for newborns. After the augmented popularity of grey a few years ago, I’ve noticed black slink it’s way into the hearts of stylish mothers looking for a forward-thinking genderless colour which will stand their mini me’s out from the crowd. Which is why black is the ‘it’ colour in children’s fashion and interiors.
This cool colour introduces a slice of urban chic into kids rooms with graphic patterns, charming finishes and bold silhouettes. You can take tentative steps with the smallest of jet-hued accessories or make a really bold statement with in-your-face wallpapers and bedding.

Now, I particularly love black mixed in with white and pastels shades for a really strong kids’ interior look, but a monochrome colour scheme or a blackboard painted wall are a timeless choice. Here’s my favourite black buys for kids’ rooms to help you get the look.
Monochrome doesn’t have to be macabre or bland in kids’ rooms, keep it chic with fun patterns and stylish finishes.
