Every child will swoon over this Intense Ocean play corner

The ideal children’s rooms are colourful, practical and put style into play. This play corner in Asian Paint’s Colour of the Year 2017 Intense Ocean can add just the spark to liven up the kids room.
For a do-it-yourself play space that is not only smile inducing but also a lesson in good taste, follow our tips.
1. Create a fabric wall in Intense Ocean to add an interactive element to the area. We recommend placing a softboard over it and adding storage by pasting or stitching pockets of various sizes. You can start with a printed textile as the background followed with a solid one over it and lastly materials for pockets in a contrasting shade. The softboard will allow the kids to pin up pictures, notes etc.
2. Add a storage unit for the kids to stow their games and knick knacks. A simple colour coordinated unit with alternating Intense Ocean drawers can brighten up the corner and is ideal to put aside stray playthings.
3. For a quirky touch, use the basketball hoop for storing shoes, towels and water bottles. This is a unique way to add a sporty aspect to the room.
