The main objective of this study is to analyze the transformations in children’s room furniture design over the past 25 years. It was aimed to reveal the change in the use of color in modular wooden products over years. Data were obtained using literature research, examination of source data and comparative analysis methods. Following literature research and examinations, children\\\'s room furniture designs created in the early 2000s, and furniture designs created in 2025 were examined in terms of color use using the comparative analysis method.
