YOUR RESEARCH STRATEGY APPLIED THE FOLLOWING STRATEGY
We began our research by looking for all the precompiled information available to establish the top 5-7 trends in the children's room decor and furnishings market in Canada.
Our initial strategy was to look through market and industry reports and analysis for trends in the kid's room furnishings and decor market in Canada. This search spanned reputable report databases like Transparency Market Research, Market Watch, Globe News and so on. There were no reports on kids’ room decor, furnishing market or related keywords, only general home decor probably because the market is really specific.
Secondly, we searched for articles, press releases, featured stories and related materials on popular, top items in kids room furnishings and decor across several reputable platforms including Decorators and Designers Association of Canada, Canadian Home Trends, Style Meets Comfort, Tonic Living, HGTV and so on. Available information was on general home decor and furnishings and only random ideas, too random to be considered as popular or any similar metric, on kids’ rooms and nurseries. This was probably because the kids room furnishings and decor ideas publicly available online differ from what is feasible. Alternatively, we scoured reputable kids furnishings and home decor forums like Tripadvisor, Red Flag Deals to estimate from frequency of ideas. Discussions were on decor and furniture consultants not ideas so we couldn't perform any analysis from this strategy.
Thirdly, we took to popular kid's furnishers in Canada including West Coast Kids, Kids at Home, Wayfair.ca, Walmart.ca. From these we analyzed the furnishings that were on high demand (popular, hot, bestselling and similar filters) across several platforms. From our analysis we discovered that amongst the popular items were monochrome drawers, twin beds and storage beds, patterned colorful curtains with famous cartoon merchandise and made in Canada items. We ensured our findings were consistent across different platforms.
