Media Reviews
For Room for Children: Stylish Spaces for Sleep and Play, (Rizzoli, April 2010), Salk culled images of every type of kids' space, from nurseries and teen retreats to multi-child bunkers and playrooms in which we'd welcome the chance to hang out. The rooms were shot by the industry's top photographers and designed by some of our favorite designers, including Kelly Wearstler (who wrote the book's foreward), Amanda Nisbet, Amy Lau and Sixx Design. You might even recognize the spaces if you're an ardent follower of shelter mags and design blogs. (Hint: J. Crew Creative Director Jenna Lyons' much-touted dark-walled nursery makes an appearance.)

Knowing that designers had been creating bedrooms and play spaces for their clients' children all along -- [Susanna Salk] often saw photos that were never published -- inspired her to write Room for Children: Stylish Spaces for Sleep and Play, published this month by Rizzoli. The New York Times
.. .First book ever to treat kids' rooms with design seriousness. You won't find cutesy rooms there, no Disney themes allowed either (thank you!) - just great design ideas and execution with a lot of flair and style. Finally! Ridgefield's Talk of Our Town
Author and style maven Susanna Salk continues to go from strength to strength when it comes to her books... Well now she's done it again with her latest book Room for Children, with a foreword by Kelly Wearstler. Room for Children is both visually exciting and inspiring, showcasing the work of Kelly Wearstler, Charlotte Moss, Alessandra Branca, Amanda Nisbet, and Jamie Drake, among many others. I wish I had this book 13 years ago! AlltheBestBlog.com
For a coffee table book, it is, appropriately, compact in size, and uses whimsy wherever possible: A wall stripe or a geometric drapery pattern is picked up and replicated lightly beneath the type, and cheerful, brightly colored text pages accompany most of the images. Room for Children (as in taking the time to truly make room for children, and not the plural, simplified rooms) may prompt you to go back in time if just for a moment, to settle in without a care in your room fit for a prince, princess, rockstar or explorer, and reflect on, as the author says, a place 'where your imagination can be free.' 1stdibs.com
