A family bedroom embraces the best of two worlds: play area and soothing retreat.

Paired with kid-friendly furniture, washable fabrics make it easy to transform a bedroom into a communal family space. The area in front of a gas-burning fireplace is designed as a place where kids can play, read, or work on projects. A soft wool rug, slipcovered chaise, and child-sized chairs carve out an inviting seating area where children can cuddle with parents in front of a fire. Built-in cupboards and recessed bookshelves provide clutter-resistant storage while framing the stone fireplace within their crisp lines.

An easy-to-clean floor of pickled pine boards with a semigloss topcoat takes the worry out of spills and art projects. A soothing palette of pale green and white promises to calm energetic toddlers as they settle down for a nap or bedtime story.
