7 Beautiful Examples To Help You Design A Room For A Young Girl

A bedroom is such an important space for a child. As a kid, having your own room means more than privacy -- it means having a space to keep your precious possessions, to retreat with your friends, and to start to create your own identity and sense of style. But it's not always easy for parents to marry their own aspirational style with their child's desire for autonomy and fun. In this post, you'll see rooms that are designed intentionally for young girls. While not all girls will have the same tastes, these rooms combine elements of whimsy, fashion, color, and fun but do so in a sophisticated way.
