Tips On Creating Family-Friendly Homes

ROAM FREE

If there's one thing kids need, it's lots of room to move about and explore. Creating boundary-free zones gives children confidence and also lets you have peace of mind knowing they are safe.

Little tots are always bumping into things, but you can reduce the chances of serious injuries by going with rounded corners and padded furnishings.

It just so happens that curved walls and pillowy couches are hugely popular right now. Ideal for young family life.

For this household with three kids, the parents' bedroom features a murphy bed, giving the family leeway to use this spot as a study, play or work area during the daytime. The fluted detail across the front ensures this space looks pretty whether the bed is up or down.

Space-saving and multi-functional furniture are always a boon when you have kids, ensuring adaptability, longevity and maximum use of space. Depending on your needs for the day, this height-adjustable table from Spaceman can function as a coffee table for when you have guests over, or you could use it as a dining table, a study desk for the kids, or even tuck it away.
