There is a reason designers and design blog hounds alike adore kids rooms with matching twin beds: Pairs. Designers love pairs and symmetry and a pair of twin beds with matching linens and bolsters appeal to everyone’s sensibilities. Whether used in a guest room or as a kids room, twin beds work because they are neat and are basically the bed version of x-benches.

Domino used to have an amazing gallery of rooms with twin beds. Damn.

Most of these rooms are really playful even though they aren’t juvenile and I think thats why they really work.

Recipe for an awesome room:

1.Two upholstered Headboards, preferably in a pattern or color.Simple and sweet.

2. 2 rolls, or 2 throw pillows. Think pattern or color.

3. 1 funky nightstand. Think unexpected. The bedroom that shook the blogosphere. Why? The beds are from Target! Via Matters of Style

4. A pair of perches at the end of the bed.
