Timeless and Whimsical Wall Murals for Kids Room
Designing a child's room is like creating a little world of magic and possibilities. It's a place where imagination flows freely, where adventures unfold, and dreams come to life. But children's rooms aren't just for play and creativity, they also need to be safe, practical, and functional to fit into the busy rhythms of everyday life. It should be a space where energy is recharged and development happens, all while reflecting the child's personality and interests. Designing a child’s room means finding the balance between fantasy and functionality, and it’s one of the most exciting tasks you can take on!

Something we absolutely love is wall paneling paired with wall murals. One designer who does this beautifully is Beata Heuman. Her choices often evoke a sense of nostalgia while still feeling fresh, blending classic British and Swedish design traditions with a modern sensibility. Paneling is an excellent way to bring warmth, texture, and character to a child's bedroom. Not only does it create a polished, well-structured look, but it's also highly practical, protecting walls from everyday bumps, sticky little fingers, and crayons!
Both wall paneling and wall murals are striking design elements on their own. When paired together, they create the perfect balance, resulting in an elegant and dynamic aesthetic that adds depth, texture, and personality to any room.
A children's room should be filled with discoveries, and wallpapering the ceiling creates just that. In collaboration with Swedish artist Estelle Graf, we have created a magical collection that invites you into a dreamlike world filled with mythical creatures. To this collection, we have added two ceiling wall murals that make it even more whimsical because we believe in the importance of a cohesive atmosphere and making a room feel complete.
Wallpapering the ceiling makes the room feel more intimate. By extending the design elements upward, the ceiling becomes an integral part of the room, tying everything together. No longer just an overlooked surface, the ceiling adds to the overall aesthetic, enhancing the room’s theme with balance and flow. It transforms the space, making it feel more immersive and thoughtfully designed from floor to ceiling.
Unlike plain painted walls, wall murals introduce pattern, texture, and depth, instantly making the room feel special. A beautifully designed kids’ room is one that inspires and grows with them over time. Creating a children’s room that feels both playful and timeless is an art. One that Swedish-born, London-based designer Beata Heuman has perfected. Her signature style blends whimsical details with sophisticated craftsmanship, making spaces feel full of character and charm. Her children’s rooms are no exception. They feel like enchanting, storybook-like spaces where imagination thrives. She creates environments that are both stylish and adaptable as children grow.
One of the hallmarks of Heuman’s style is her fearless use of color. Instead of sticking to traditional pastels or gender-specific hues, she blends rich, unexpected shades to create a vibrant yet harmonious atmosphere.
Another signature feature of Heuman’s designs is her use of hand-painted details and illustrative flourishes. Whether it's a wall mural depicting a dreamy landscape, painted ceiling borders, or hand-drawn elements on furniture, these touches add a sense of wonder and storytelling to the space. They often feel like they’ve been plucked from the pages of a beautifully illustrated children’s book. She ensures the room is as functional as it is beautiful.
