Momma Mia! Modern Kid's Rooms

In the search for modern kids interior ideas, these great room ideas from GAB were found.   And my offspring who generally opposes modern design (since mom likes it), loves them!  
They have some great space saving interior ideas and take kids play in to consideration. Alas, Made in Italy - Momma mia!

Good time

These bamboo clocks by Decoylab  remind me of the playful clocks George Nelson created which became modern icons. The owl and elephant have a great modern feel

Pillow Talk...

                                              

The hand silk screened pillow case designs by Hola Amiga feature art by Nate Williams.  His illustrations and patterns are almost childlike and could be mistaken for vintage, but yet perfectly modern. These are "lines", "space shapes", & "petri dish".
