A handful of life-size miniature horse toys to ride. A sleek, tiny ball-pit and accompanying slide. A stage with karaoke microphones and enough instruments to support a professional band. These are just some of the toys in the white-walled Kardashian-West playroom, which Kim Kardashian recently posted on Instagram.
they look like they’ve been pulled straight from a Wes Anderson film, not an actual playroom from 2020.But there’s more to images of perfect playrooms than a showcase of cute interior design captured in a minute when the toys were laid out just right. Playrooms of the past were saddled with expectations that they’d be tiny incubators of good taste, creativity, and intellectualism for children, and the same applies to the aspirational playrooms of today.
Playrooms of the past were saddled with expectations that they’d be tiny incubators of good taste, creativity, and intellectualism for children, and the same applies to the aspirational playrooms of todayThe irony is that even though the playroom in its ideal form advertises itself as a space where children have free rein to play and explore, its existence implies that children and the way that they play should still be out of sight and removed from the rest of daily life.
Even the more extravagant playrooms, featuring rock climbing walls and elaborate indoor playground structures, reinforce ideas of what ideal play should be. “Kids, in general, are not going out to their playgrounds or into their backyards like we used to because they are over-scheduled, they have screens inside,” says Karri Bowen-Poole, a former teacher and founder of the design company
which specializes in highly physical, colorful, private and commercial playrooms. “I’ve always been a firm believer that any kind of physical activity for a child is super important.”The modern playroom, on the surface, was always advertised as a “room of one’s own” for children, a place where a child’s creativity could blossom and they could have privacy to explore their own interests.
