I'm curious to hear from other mumsnetters if they would fork out the cash for some classic design items for their children's rooms eg an Eames elephant stool www.heals.co.uk/invt/eameselephant?Source=119_74&gclid=CJLBzu_Dnr0CFenjwgodgBsAKQ: or a Barcelona chair www.knoll.com/product/barcelona-chair-childs%3Fsection=Design ? how important is good design when it comes to kitting out your child's room - and does the cost eventually pay off as it lasts longer/ can be more durable... and fits the rest of the house?
