LOGOS SPAZI (RI)CREATIVI

Firstly, writer and stylist Ashlyn Gibson sets out to make sense of the basics in an introduction that offers a valuable guide to creating a childhood haven that can grow along with your child and all their changing needs, from newborn to pre-teen.

Next, in a series of practical yet inspiring chapters Ashlyn discusses the key elements of successful children's spaces – colour, wall décor, storage, displaying artworks, dens and hideways, creative spaces and homework zones, and cosy bedrooms. Each chapter closes with a detailed study of a real-life family home that puts the ideas into practice. Ashlyn visits homes that feature imaginative design ideas and explores children’s spaces that provide a stylish yet playful backdrop for busy family life.

An award-winning retailer herself, in the sources section Ashlyn reveals her own favourite online suppliers and design stores, as well as suggesting a variety of interesting blogs and instagram accounts that readers might like to follow.

Packed with fresh and imaginative ideas, Creative Children's Spaces is the perfect companion for a journey into parenthood.
