Summer is winding down, and before you know it, the busy school schedule will be back in full swing. So, your home needs a little reboot before then.
We have come up with a few smart kids' room furniture swaps that can change the vibe of the entire room. If your kids' room seems like a toy jungle or lacks focus-friendly zones, then just consider these ideas for a refresh.
1. Create a Dedicated Study Zone
All the homework, projects, and creative work that are on the way need a designated study space. And we have already figured out how to make it inviting, while also being distraction-free. The 4 You desk and Desk 120 from VOX offer modern designs that look appealing to kids and enough storage to keep essentials within reach.
2. Upgrade Kids' Bookshelves for Easy Access
Books are every student’s best friend—but only if they’re visible and accessible.
Furniture tip: Go for open-front, low-height kids' bookshelves that make it easy for children to pick out a story or textbook. Try the Narrow Open Bookcase—slim, simple, and perfect for tight spaces. Or go big with the Wide Bookcase—great for both books and treasured display pieces.
3. Swap Bulky Beds for Storage
Is your child’s bed taking up most of the room, while their things spill over from drawers and baskets? A smart furniture swap can solve both.
Smart solutions: A storage bed with built-in drawers at the bottom. It allows you extra space to store seasonal clothes, bedding, toys, or school supplies. VOX Furniture offers smart bed designs that come with under-bed storage or headboards that double as bookshelves.
4. Incorporate Multi-Functional Furniture
Multi-functional furniture is a savior for today's families. Imagine products that serve multiple purposes—such as a storage bench, a fold-down workstation, or a closet with built-in study cubicles.
Why it matters: As school routines kick in, kids need spaces for different activities—studying, playing, resting, and storing their things. Multi-use kids' room furniture helps them switch between tasks easily and keeps the room flexible. VOX’s 4 You Sideboard, for example, offers sleek storage that also works as a display surface—perfect for showcasing school projects or special keepsakes.
5. Rework the Closet Space
Uniforms, shoes, backpacks, art supplies, lunch bags—the list is long. If your current storage isn’t cutting it, it’s time to rethink the closet.
Furniture swap idea: Replace traditional wardrobes with modular storage systems that allow you to customize compartments. Try the Spot Home Vox 2-Door Wardrobe with sliding doors and smart compartments and the Young User Teens Shelf for easy-access storage of shoes, accessories, or school supplies.
6. Set Up a Reading or Creative Corner
A reading corner with a soft chair, bookshelf, and lamp is a fantastic idea, and every kid needs that.
A smart furniture tip: Add a small kids’ bookshelf beside a comfy armchair or beanbag. You can try the Stan Armchair from VOX's collection for relaxed reading and pair it with the Narrow Open Bookcase to keep favorite books within easy reach.
