Create your own IKEA SMÅSTAD children's corner with oak top, by Maurice

Create the perfect children's corner

Do you dream of a playful and practical children's corner in your home where style and functionality meet? Be inspired by Maurice's project, who created a beautiful play corner using IKEA furniture and a custom-sawn oak top from TOSIZE.ie. A place where children can draw, play and learn in an environment that appeals to both them and adults.

The structure of the project

With a clever combination of IKEA SMÅSTAD cabinets and a beautiful oak top, Maurice has created a desk that is perfectly suited to his children's needs. The piece of furniture not only functions as a desk, but the cabinets also provide plenty of storage space. The natural oak of the top, cut to size by TOSIZE.ie, creates a warm and inviting look.

Unique details

What makes this project unique is the attention to detail. The choice of an oak top gives the play corner a high-quality feel and provides a natural look that fits into any contemporary living room or playroom. Combined with the sleek white finish of the cabinets, it creates a timeless design that will not look out of place in the interior.

The best place for a children's corner

This play corner is ideally placed in the living room, next to a wall with a stylish wooden trellis and a world map. This not only provides an educational element, but also integrates the play area seamlessly into the family's living environment.

DIY: the benefits at a glance

Making a project yourself offers many advantages. For example, you have control over the dimensions and the piece of furniture fits in the space you have in mind. The freedom of choice in materials offers you the opportunity to fully tailor the look & feel to your personal taste. Moreover, it is often a more favorable choice for your budget.

A stylish finish

Maurice's project shows a Scandinavian simplicity with a warm and welcoming look. The combination of natural oak elements with white streamlined cabinets gives the children's corner a fresh and modern style.

Oak: a sustainable choice

Oak wood is known for its strength and durability. The 27mm thick oak panel used for the top not only gives a robust look, but can also withstand the daily play activities of children. The natural pattern of the wood also provides a timeless appeal and makes each piece unique. With the custom-cut panel byTOSIZE.ie the finish is of exceptional quality, adding to the overall allure of the children's corner.
