Dream home: The Upstairs

The upstairs of my dream house is rarely used unless I have an accidental spawn. The only time it's really used is when guests need to spend the night.

The stairs follows the pattern of the foyer: elegant but whimsical. A curved stairwell would be nice, but a boxed stairs would be good too because then I could build a slide to mount half the stairs

The upstairs hallway is a balcony overlooking the living room. The floors would be wooden and the walls an accenting cream.
Hallway in a rustic home:

The doors to both bedrooms would be half doors. This allows privacy while still hearing what happens down I. The living room. It also is good crowd control for children.
Genius! half door for any baby/kids room so you can hear if they wake, but they can't wander the house alone or play in their room while u cook, shower, clean.:

The first bedroom would have a classy outer space theme. It would have a navy blue and gold mural over the bed.
la luna:


The ceiling would have that same navy and gold with exposed rafters.
"night sky" ceiling:

The bathroom is a little childish. It's dinosaur and caveman themed. The shower has a dinosaur silhouette curtain

And a fossilized dinosaur shower head.

The sinks are stone basins, and the art on the walls is framed cave art. If we had spawn it would become more childish, but without them it is playful yet elegant.

The second bedroom is a woodland theme. The decor on the walls is an abstract watercolor and perhaps branch picture.

There are real wood accents all over the room.

Including a body mirror which reflects all the natural light.
Helaas wil mijn vriend een tv in de slaapkamer, maar ik vind deze spiegel heel mooi voor in de slaapkamer.:

That's all if accidents don't happen...
AND IF SPAWN HAPPEN:

The baby will sleep in our bedroom till it sleeps through the night. Then it will be moved to a Montessori style bedroom. The point of Montessori is all tools are made for kids. This means a kid sized closet that the kid can choose clothes from, a reading corner, and a few stuffed toys.
Tu le sais, je suis très sensible à l’aménagement de l’espace pour les tout-petits. Aujourd’hui, je te propose de plonger dans l’univers de la micro-crèche Éveil Pur, à Juvi…:

The bed itself is z small house. This is the kids house to make its bed and look at itself in the mirror beside it. I also like the dangly bits in this picture.

And then the second room becomes a lord of the rings themed playroom. I'd say it's for another kid, but I only need one accident before I learn my lesson.

The room would be sky blue with a white tree of gondor mural.
The foyer's grass-cloth walls extend up the stairwell, where decorative painter Brian G. Leaver embellished them with the fantasy of a live oak.:

There would be a lot of natural light and a grass of different texture play rug.

On either side of the door there would be horse carvings

And on the wall opposite the door, above the shelves would be a map, or a poster from lord of the rings.

The kid wouldn't have many toys, but a stick horse would be one of them.
stick horses made out of socks, i like their jingle bells:

And this, because it's versitile.

The shelf would have the rest of the kids toys, as it got older it would also include Montessori bins that are similar to what it has at school. I imagine the shelf larger than this, holding 12 cubbies.

And the kid will have play silks instead of dress up clothes. Imagination is more important than accuracy at a young age.

This is how I imagine the other furniture to be. I'd love for the lofted area especially.

And because I always wanted one. The kid would have a ball pit. Maybe with a rock climbing wall in it.
