Deonne Rowland is the creative mind behind the London-based kids interior design studio « Odd Sock, Odd Shoe ». By the name you can already guess that you will be getting some interesting stuff for your kids’ rooms! It is exactly that; the studio mixes and matches classic pieces with mid-century furniture together with today’s children’s design from all over the world and it results in some amazingly styled kids’ rooms..
Recently, the design studio designed this room for Annie and Elsie (3 and 5 yrs old) who are two little girls sharing a room. The studio always tries to create “a happy bubble” for each space they design for children so the two girls were part of the initial design process by telling Deonne that they were keen on the idea of a “rainbow room”. The two girl’s imagination and Odd Sock, Odd Shoe’s expertise and style created this utterly stylish and modern girl’s room that both the parents and the girls can be very proud of.
What a beautiful sky for a rainbow room don’t you think? The blue is one of the main colours in the room painted on one wall where the names of the girls have been hung over their beds in bespoke fabric and wire letters made by Little Cloud. We love the poetic touch of the sparrows that have come out after the rain.. The colour palette is a soft alternative to the traditional bold and primary colours often associated with a rainbow and blends well with the vintage pieces and the Oeuf’s cushions on the beds. The ceiling lamp from Vita Eos looks like a cloud that has the sun shining through it. The pink Kalon Studios caravan divan beds come from Studio Mini Shop with a Kalon Studios stump table between them.
Rainbow cushion from Oeuf, vintage 60’s fabric for the bespoke flowery cushion, kidsbedding from Camomile London and Molly Meg.
Kalon studios stump table, house bedside light from Suck UK with a vintage Ladybird book providing as a “roof” for the houselight, wooden sparrows from Rowen and Wren painted in Farrow and Ball’s India Yellow.
This is the crafts and study area, framed on either side by two bespoke cupboards designed by Odd Sock, Odd Shoe design studio, painted in a mustardy yellow colour that draws its inspiration from the Oeuf rainbow cushion. The cute wooden mousechairs are by No Fred, wallpockets from Normann Copenhagen, the little cup from Donna Wilson, the two beech toadstools by Applicata and the stationary in the wallpockets is a mix, but includes a lot from Hay and Hema.
Above the vintage dresser (French 1960’s piece sourced by Odd Sock, Odd Shoe) hangs a rainbow banner from Oeuf in similar colours as on the rainbow cushions but with a brighter blue, dustier pink and a very 60’s brown hazelnut colour. The bespoke modern clothes hanger creates a good balance with the vintage rattan mirrors aswell as the modern touches of dot hooks painted in the colours of the room from Muuto. The supercool wooden cameratoy hanging from the clothes hanger is from Fanny and Alexander. The Oli and Ella toy storage basket can be found at Little Goldie.
The palm leaf basket is from The Tipi, the gold brass apple trinket box is vintage and the birdpot from Studio Arhoj.
These adorable little wooden owls are by Noli Noli
The reading nook also has a mix of modern and vintage pieces and a great balance of colour seen in other parts of the room but in different tones. The pink cube chair is from Small Design, blue pouffe from CamCam Copenhagen and the book ledges are bespoke with several charming vintage children’s books from Ladybird.
Style and taste even to the smallest of details; the brass swans are vintage and the cross-stitched owl from Fanny and Alexander that Deonne made herself.
The Kokeshi dolls are all vintage and sourced from Deonne from Japan.
The wooden hand is from Hay.
