JESSICA’S ROOM Jacinda decided to accentuate Jessica’s blue triangle Betapet wallpaper by adding a pale blue MRD Home chair and soft blue quilt cover. The upholstered Mesxii linen bed head is white to keep a classic element which doesn’t date. An assortment of cushions cluster on the bed adding shape, pattern and colour while a felt garland hangs above injecting further playfulness. Jacinda couldn’t find a chest of drawers that she liked for Jessica so she visited Ikea and painted each draw on the chosen unit a different colour to match other elements in the room. Without a doubt, these drawers have now become one of the highlights of the room. Staying true to her call for colour, Jessica picked a Pete Cromer parrot print for above her chair and pinched a Rachel Castle print from her Mum’s study (luckily Sally obliged). Jacinda added the It’s Beautiful Here coat rack from Leo and Bella and hung some of Jessica’s odds and ends up, creating instant visual appeal and stamping Jessica’s personality into the design. The vibrant Electric Confetti ice cream light is a bold yet funky addition.

HARRY’S ROOM Harry also scored a fabulous Mexsii linen bedhead, though in a tranquil pale blue colour with tan piping detail. In Bed Store striped linen was the perfect choice as it was easy to mix and match with different cushions. Jacinda introduced ‘touch and feel’ elements such as denim, felt, leather and wool through the cushions and these add wonderful natural overtones. As Harry’s room is the smallest out of the three, storage has always been an issue. Jacinda addressed this in a spectacular fashion with a Lilly and Lolly storage unit which houses most of Harry’s books and toys. Being very active, careful consideration was given to how Harry would use the room and different play spots were carved out – he can read on his chair, use his Plyroom bench for cars or set-up a super hero secret hideout on his Harper rug. Harry was shown the Dino Raws prints and he thought they were very cool so a selection was hung around his room and joined his much loved Star Wars print. Of course, no room would be complete without Yoda standing on the bedside table! HIDE & SLEEP www.hidesleep.com.au @hideandsleep_interiors
