Stripes Go Horizontal in Kids' Room

We've seen a resurgence of stripes in the home. Not only does this room feature a very popular striped IKEA rug, there are stripes on the beds as well.

Why does this room of striped textiles look so fresh and modern? It's partly because the stripes run horizontally, instead of vertically. The crisp white walls and dark floors don't hurt either.
