inviting play space for all ages
We transformed this dreary basement space into a highly functional play space with tons of storage for all ages. We kept the space as an open room without enclosing it in order to enlarge and brighten up the feel of a small playroom. We incorporated a little art space to display artworks above a chalkboard wall. This client did not want a
rainbow bright playroom on top of all the bright colored toys so we balanced it with soft, neutral colors for the decor. We opted for a bright but light wall color, Sherwin William’s Snow Drop which is a very light pale blue. Keeping in mind the basement location with limited windows, we wanted the space to be bright and airy. A plush, high pile geometric shag rug to ground the room and add comfort and warmth under those tiny feet! We added simple, muted solid colored throw pillows with varying textures above the storage bench to compliment the area rug.
Our client’s budget did not allow for a custom built in shelving for toy storage. We came up with a cost effective storage system to hide away all the toys and keep everything neat and organized.
No space was wasted in designing the kids basement playroom. We utilized the space under the stairs to add an intimate reading nook for the kids to enjoy. We kept it simple with white shiplap for the accent wall and added a small bookshelf for the kids to sort their books in. The oversized bench cushion & cover was customized and made to fit this space by Kohler Designs.
