Children’s bedrooms are busy spaces—home to toys, books, clothes, and endless creativity. Finding the perfect storage solutions means balancing practicality with aesthetics, creating a space that’s both functional and inspiring. At Prenwood, we design bespoke storage solutions that grow with your children, ensuring their room stays organised and stylish.
Here are some of our top ideas to maximise storage while keeping things playful and practical:
Built-in Beds with Hidden Storage
Depending on your child’s age, a built-in bed can be a game-changer, freeing up valuable floor space while incorporating storage within the design. Plus, what kid doesn't love a den space? With a tiered bed design, you can go truly bespoke, creating a den on the first floor or underneath, making bedtime even more exciting.
Our Highfield bunk beds showcase how tiered designs can be both practical and fun. We regularly design beds with integrated drawers, shelving and even pull-out desks. As safety is paramount in our designs, we often incorporate steps instead of ladders to provide safer access to upper tiers while offering additional hidden storage drawers for toys and essentials.
Wardrobes That Grow with Your Child
A well-designed wardrobe is an investment that should adapt as your child grows. We recommend incorporating double hanging rails for little ones, which can be adjusted to single rails or shelving as they get older. Planning ahead ensures longevity and avoids costly adjustments later on.
Our Highfield wardrobes demonstrate how adaptable storage can be, offering a timeless solution that evolves with your child’s needs.
Niches & Alcoves: Functional & Fun
Maximising every inch of space is key in children’s bedrooms, and niches or alcoves offer brilliant storage solutions. These built-in features are perfect for displaying books, housing bedside essentials, or creating secret hideaways.
A built-in alcove provides a cosy and practical solution, adding character to the room while making use of otherwise wasted space. By incorporating clever storage options, it can help keep the room organised and clutter-free, all while providing a unique and personal touch that enhances the overall aesthetic of the space.
Multi-Functional Study Spaces
Even if your child isn’t yet at the homework stage, incorporating a study area early on can be a smart move. A desk space can double up as a dressing table or gaming station, and as technology becomes more integrated into learning, planning for additional sockets and lighting is essential. An increasingly popular option is designing the wardrobes and desk space into one seamless area, creating a structured focal point in the room while keeping the rest of the space free for play and relaxation.
Our Highfield study setup features a dedicated workspace with dual screens, showing how a well-planned area can seamlessly transition from childhood into teenage years.
