Here are some trends coming from the recent Interior Design Show in Toronto:
*contemporary products for kids are blending sleek crafting, fashion and function - with some designed for use far beyond the initial months of a child's life.
Items that take into account the transition from infancy to childhood were also on display, including rich wooden and-or coloured adjustable high chairs capable of conversion into seats for toddlers or young children, and a bunk able to reconfigure into a loft bed suitable for placing a desk underneath for use by an older child.
Baby Guru, an online store specializing in modern nursery and playroom furniture, featured a crib nestled in with a change table, a practical piece for individuals living in lofts or apartments where space may be at a premium, saiys co-founder Jon Dyer.
* Acoording to Canadian House and Home "Modern Baby" is among its top trends for interiors in 2008. The magazine's design editor, Stacy Begg, says the trend is an extension of the mid-century look with an emphasis on lots of wood and white and not a lot of ornamentation, in contrast to traditional baby rooms that tend to be more decorative.
Wooden cribs with adjustable mattress platforms and side railings, featuring additional storage drawers tucked underneath, are capable of conversion into toddler beds or daybeds.
The conclusion: the whole idea is that you don't need to buy furniture over and over again so you buy quality

Stokke Tripp Trapp Chair Turquoise If you did a double take looking at the picture, you're not alone Tripp Trapp doesn't look like a regular highchair or booster seat. That's because it's far more. A top seller in Europe for over 30 years, this sleekly designed wood chair lets your child sit comfortably at the dining table, kitchen counter, or computer desk joining in the action just like a grownup. The seat and footrest easily adjust vertically and horizontally, so you can get the right fit as your child grows. And grows, and grows. This chair is also designed to hold grown-ups. Tripp Trapp Chair Stokke Sleepi Mini & Crib System Natural The innovative Sleepi System is designed to grow with your child from infancy through the toddler years. It starts as a narrow, cozy bassinet, shaped like an oval to replicate the calming and familiar environment of the womb. The included conversion kit transforms the bassinet into a full-size oval crib. Remove the side panel and lower the mattress for a toddler bed that will accommodate your child until about 5 years of age. Sleepi Mini & Crib System |

Тенденциите за обзавеждане на детски и бебешки стаи от наскоро приключилото изложение Interior Design Show в Toronto:
* "Модерно бебе" - изчистени елегантни линии и форми, комбиниращи функция и естетиката на модерната класика от средата на миналия век, много естествена дървесина и боядисана в бяло, по-малко орнаменти.
* Продуктите за бебета са проектирани така, че да могат да продължат да се използват и когато детето проходи, а някои и след това - в тийнеджърските му години.
Заключението: идеята е не да се купуват мебели непрекъснато, а да се купуват (или да се поръчат проектирани конкретно за нас) качествени неща, които ще ни служат дълго!
