Emile, Theo and Pablo enjoy colorful bedrooms. Thanks to their parents, designers of the well known French brand, they play and live in a retro bohemian atmosphere. Their father, Pan, imports from the workshop of his father in China, beautiful kites, cushions and baby blankets available on Comptoir d'enfance.

Petit Pan in French Elle


The cute cushions from Petit Pan decorate a crib in the French Elle magazine. The journalists only shopped good design and quality products for small prices for a kid's bedroom.
Other good idea from this French atmosphere: the carpet from Ikea for a sweet, cozy place !

And from Petit Pan, enjoy our New sleeping bag for New Born and grown up with its unique retro-bohemian style. To mix and match with the cushions and the plaids.

New wall decals from Mimilou



Mimi'lou has created new stickers for spring and for our pleasure!
Enjoy these new poetic wall decals available on Comptoir d'enfance.
Inspired by the childhood world, the French artist Mimi'lou draws her decals in real size. Once transferred, only the lines of the decals remains on the wall, giving the effect of simple, hand-drawn mural.


Mimi'lou brings fun and color in your children's rooms. You create a unique design, a magic world for your child.
Mimi Lou decals can be applied to any smooth surface. Transferring them is remarkably simple. If necessary, they can be removed easily and without leaving a trace.

The cozy Home of Antik Batik designer



The designer of Antik Batik, Gabriella Cortese, does not only draw sublime tunics and scarves with ethnic inspiration.
She is also passionate about interior decoration. I had already discovered the bedroom of his son. Here is the visit of her parisian house posted on the site of French magazine Elle Deco.

Her idea for lighting? no lighting from the ceiling but "Expanding light sources. In my living room / dining room, in addition to six lamps around the room, I put a lot of small lights on all the furniture (drawers, fireplace , library ...)".
Her only concession, and we understand her, has been "a paper lamp by Noguchi, put one meter above the table in the dining room, to give a warm atmosphere."

A warm atmosphere that we also find in her bedroom. Because if she chose to leave the living room without curtains so that the light enters the maximum, she made an accumulation of curtains in her bedroom: "one in silk taffeta, another thick cotton and a third in silk tulle . This gives the character and a cozy ambience. "


But my favorite room of the house remains the stairwell and the suspensions from Tom Dixon. "We have, hanging from the ceiling, twelve suspensions at different heights." She previously made a test with balloons.



What makes the atmosphere of a place for the designer? "The personal, not necessarily beautiful, but warm stuff like a piece of furniture from my grandmother (in which she put all of her beauty products), a large photo of the ancestors of my husband raised over the bathtub in the bathroom ... The memories of family bring a soul to the house. "
I just hope one thing: that she, one day, design also products for our interiors!
A broadcast visit is also available on the French TV show Interior: http://www.interieurs.fr/video-Chez-Gabriella-Cortese-i650.php

Some painting, waiting for Spring!

The February issue of French Maison magazine has visited some child rooms colorful... exactly what I needed before spring !
Above in a Parisian loft the parents have created a little cozy bedroom with a cute vintage crib with linens from Petit Pan, hand made animals and a little library already full of great french books.
Half of the wall is painted in red for the joy of the little owner of the room!

In the South of France, the parents of 3 did not hesitate to mix and match pink and red, grey and blue, grey and green... each bedroom has its own colors!
Another idea: don't hesitate to paint basics from the big Swedish company. It will customize then and personalize each bedroom !

To finish the wall decor, a light garland from Tse et Tse above, or a big wall decal below and you're done!
