Most of you will be aware that November in India is a big month for children. Every year, India celebrates 14th of November as Children’s Day in the memory of India’s first Prime Minister, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, who was very fond of kids. Since at Discern, we’re always looking for ways to talk décor, here is a round-up of the biggest home décor trends for kids this year that you could bring home and build on as they grow.



Vintage is Cool

Believe it or not, vintage is not just for adults! Adding a vintage touch to any space, even your children’s bedroom gives the room a distinct personality and makes it more inviting and cosy. Mixing new pieces with older ones lends a timeless vibe to space. Pastels, floral prints, and a mix of wood and wrought iron furniture are all good ways to create a retro but chic vibe. This look would work perfectly in your daughter’s room if she loves all things girly!



Grey, all the way

Think children’s bedrooms and usually, pinks and blues come right to mind. It’s time to shelve that thinking, however! Grey is quickly becoming the hot new shade for your tiny tots’ rooms. As the new neutral, it works well with brighter shades like pink, yellow or blue. From dove-coloured flooring to bedroom linens and cabinets, different shades of grey can be used to create a young, modern look that will last as your child grows.

Make a statement

Statement walls are one of the hottest trends in home décor, and one that is a lot of fun to work within a child’s room! What’s more, an accent wall doesn’t need to be limited to just one solid colour. You can play with geometric patterns, art prints or bold wallpaper to make a statement. Get more innovative in an older child’s room by placing a decal of the world map on a wall, or even turning one into a chalkboard wall if your child is a little artist!

Grown-up glam

Regardless of each one’s personal tastes and preferences, the one thing in common among all children is that they grow up! When decorating your child’s room, think of décor that will stay relevant even as they grow older. Choosing timeless lamps, the right colour palette, and classic furniture will prevent the room from becoming too ‘trendy’ – and therefore requiring a décor change as your child grows.
