Brave new world

Going Places kids rug from Designers Guild

Going-places-kids-rug-main
This Going Places rug from Designers Guild is another example of a kid's design that's as desirable for adults too.

It's a colourful design, intended to capture the hustle and bustle of transport in a busy place. That translates into simple outlines of cars and trains, set amongst the backdrop of cars and mountains. Both the subject matter and the treatment of the design are reminiscent of classic transport posters. 

Made from acrylic and measuring 120 x 170cm, the rug costs £195.

Coco Bunk Bed

3320_02

It seems a shame to furnish your house in a stylish retro manner only for it to be marred by garish modern designs in your child’s room. The Coco Bunk Bed is a great piece that will solve that problem, having a retro look to it, but still being something that should appeal to kids.

It combines white and chocolate finishes and has rounded square cut-out windows that add to its retro look. The beds are full adult size so this is a piece of furniture that your kids won’t quickly outgrow.

The Coca Bunk Bed costs £450 (you need to buy mattresses separately) from Aspace.
