Design of a room for two teenagers (boys, girls or children of different sexes) in a modern style

Wallpaper for walls in the nursery

Posters and stickers look good on walls in a calm style. Examples of children's room design can be seen in the photo. The premises look light and spacious, creating a feeling of light and freedom. If the interior of a nursery for two children is designed rationally, then maintaining order is very simple. You should use only environmentally friendly materials that are natural, durable, and easy to care for. All furniture must have no sharp corners. Remember that happy children grow up in a properly decorated room.

We decorate the walls and ceiling

You can decorate any room stylishly and practically. When planning a nursery design for 2 boys, remember a few professional tricks.

In addition to comfortable beds with ergonomic mattresses, everyone should have their own place to sit and play or read.

1. In a small room (for example, in a room in a Khrushchev-era building), vertical stripes on the walls will make the nursery visually taller, and a small pattern on the wallpaper will increase the space.
2. The use of photo wallpaper will also solve the “problem” of a small nursery. This expands the space, gives perspective and brings variety to the interior.
3. Dark and too bright elements (even if they are small in size) visually reduce the area of ​​the room. Therefore, try to use them in minimal quantities. If you really want to use bright accents, place them on furniture or in accessories, not in decoration.
4. Use washable wallpaper for your walls. Then you won’t be afraid if children start drawing on them, and the boys will be able to realize their artistic inclinations. Alternatively, hang special drawing boards on the wall.

In the interior of a children's room for two boys, everything should correspond to age perception.

Modular parquet with oak strips is chosen for the main hall because of its beauty, and for the nursery because of its resistance to high loads. Before laying the parquet, the floor in the loggia needed to be insulated. The insulation was polyethylene in foil and expanded polystyrene boards. Afterwards, the screed was poured, setting its height using metal beacons. A stiff brush was used to remove air bubbles from the self-leveling gypsum cement mixture.

The presence of insulation in the loggia floor will not provide it with the required temperature, so a floor heating system was installed. Reflective material was placed on the screed, and a heating film was rolled out on top. After this, laminate flooring imitating oak boards was laid.

In the room itself, the first layer was laid out as a substrate of moisture-resistant chipboards. The flooring of the children's room is represented by modular parquet with chamfers. The look is completed by a high plinth made of lightweight and durable LDF board.

Each half of the room has its own color scheme in pastel colors; the combination of colors on the wall, decorated in patchwork style, allows you to combine the two halves into a single whole.

We had to get rid of the old wall decoration along with the old furniture. The walls required leveling, which ensured successive layers of primer, plaster and plaster. The last stage of preparation for finishing work was the finishing layer of snow-white vinyl-based putty.

To place vertical and horizontal lines when decorating panels using the patchwork technique, we used a professional laser. To create the required pattern, we used viscose wallpaper with a special dirt-repellent impregnation.

Decoration in various styles

The classic style is quite an advantageous solution for decorating a nursery. Such an interior involves the installation of wooden beds, decorated with beautiful carved details, the use of various accessories and a royal color palette, making the atmosphere truly magical and fabulous.

The photo shows the design of a modern bedroom for teenage girls.

Coming from France, the romantic Provence style will perfectly complement the bedroom of two girls aged 10 to 12 years. The design often includes natural lilac, pink, soft blue and other pastel palettes, floral prints in wallpaper, pastel linen, curtains and other textiles. Furniture items generally have a lighter and lighter design.

Loft style is more suitable for teenagers from 14 to 16 years old who strive for self-expression and personal development. This interior is distinguished by a very stylish and original look, discreet shades, slightly rough finishes and the use of street decor, such as graffiti.

It is also not recommended for two children to purchase furniture in different styles. If there is some rivalry between them, then this moment can escalate hostility.

Dark colors should not be used in small rooms, because... They already visually reduce the space. Always choose wallpaper colors and textures that are age appropriate. Classic neutral shades and styles will always help parents out: for babies, for schoolchildren, and for teenagers.

Consult with your children on all design issues. The child can independently choose whatever he likes. You shouldn’t contradict or insist on your own if the small owners of the room are unhappy with something. After all, you are trying for them. Give a unique interior, and with it a happy childhood!

Which style to choose

The most interesting thing in decorating a children's room is choosing a style or theme. Here, adult rooms are significantly inferior. Little boys may like nautical, space, aviation and automotive themes. Even children’s favorite toys and hobbies will play their role. If children spend hours assembling construction sets, decorate the room in the style of a Lego town. Fans of comics and superheroes will be happy to see items belonging to their favorite characters in the interior. Green jungle, Jurassic Park, the magical world of Harry Potter - children themselves can suggest an idea for a theme, and adults will only have to bring it to life. If you decide to decorate a nursery in a themed style, be sure to contact specialists who can draw a sketch of the project, because the details of the overall theme will have to be present not only on the walls, but also in furniture, textiles, and accessories.

Color scheme in a room for two girls

Girls love pink and purple, as everyone knows, but you shouldn't limit yourself to two standard colors. It makes more sense to choose a delicate shade from a pastel range and diversify it with bright decorative elements.

This can be either bright hearts, ruffles, stars, animals and flowers on curtains, wallpaper and bed linen - for preschool-aged sisters, or bright furniture for older children.

The sleeping area should be decorated exclusively in calm tones so that the child can relax in such an environment.

When choosing a color scheme for your design, take a closer look at the following colors: light olive, apricot, blue, soft pink, mint, pistachio, ivory and baked milk, greenish yellow, light green, beige, peach, vanilla, golden.

From the point of view of child psychologists, these are ideal shades for a nursery.

If the height of the room is at least 2.5 m, a glossy stretch ceiling will look very stylish, allowing you to visually expand the space. By coordinating the design with the sisters, you can turn an ordinary ceiling into a night or morning sky, painting it in dark blue with golden stars or delicate azure with snow-white clouds.

The latter option will help visually expand the space and add light to the room.

Attention should be paid to the psychological aspect of colors: for example, red in a nursery is unacceptable, as it causes excitement and even aggression. It can be used exclusively for melancholic and passive babies who need stimulation, and only in play and work areas

If you want bright accents, it is better to use yellow, orange, lilac or hot pink.

It is important not to overdo it with purple and blue colors, especially in bright versions: psychologists say that their abundance can tire and depress children, and sometimes even cause depression

Lighting

Lighting should be designed taking into account all the zones present in the room. Play and study areas without a lot of light can harm children's delicate eyesight. The sleeping area is additionally illuminated by night lights, because even boys up to a certain age are afraid of the dark. All lighting fixtures are installed in such a way that the room is covered with diffused soft light. The top light is best placed above the play area, the middle light – where there is upholstered furniture. The working part is additionally illuminated with table lighting fixtures or bright wall lamps. In the sleeping area, it is most important to install a night light with adjustable lighting, and such that the child himself can control it even in the dark.

Nursery design for girls: harmony in everything

The gender of children is perhaps the most important factor that must be taken into account in order to obtain a comfortable interior. Listen, first of all, to your own feelings and take the individual characteristics of your children as a basis. No one knows them better than you, and only you can decide in what space they should grow. Whether your daughters are princesses or pirates with a passion for adventure, it doesn’t matter if the main goal is to create a harmonious, comfortable and safe interior. The design of a children's room for a girl should be a continuation of her temperament, the embodiment of her dreams and favorite fairy tales.

Interior created by Soul-Concrete studio

Regardless of the gender and age of children, their room should be well lit and decorated in a color scheme rich in variety. It is better to use warm shades of any of the colors you choose. This will help calm even the most active and restless child. The ceiling can be made completely white or painted in heavenly colors; you should not use dark shades.

Girls room

Fairytale nursery

If your girls like to lie in bed, then it is better to give their gaze the opportunity to linger on the drawings on the ceiling and walls - this is much more interesting than a strict plain surface. Use framed posters - they will help add variety and bright details to the interior. But remember: the older the children get, the less appropriate the landscapes and drawings around them will become. But a contrasting wall or part of it against the general background will look interesting, will emphasize the division of thematic zones and will give the nursery some structure.

Remember that girls are just as active as boys, so try to provide each of them with their own space for creativity. If it is not possible to separate the playing areas, then consider the placement of the beds in the room in such a way that they can have privacy and hide from prying eyes. They should have their own place to store toys and valuables. These can be niches in the bed or separate shelves on the wall or in the closet.

If there is not much free space, and the children are still small, then the closet can be replaced with a small chest of drawers, which, in turn, will serve as a separator of two zones if placed between the beds.

Characteristics of temperament, tastes and hobbies, as well as age - these are the main criteria that must be followed when creating a room for girls. If they are already going to school, then there will be more writing instruments and books than toys familiar to early childhood. The role of sports and hobbies in their lives should be directly reflected in the interior of the room in which they will spend a lot of time.

When choosing a color scheme, ask each child what color he would like to see his room in and which characters would be best to make his neighbors. The older the child, the more information on this issue he will provide you with, and your task should be to combine different (and perhaps even opposite) tastes into one harmonious picture.

Nursery design for two children

Design by ReRoom studio

Children's room with bunk bed

The interior is the work of Chango & Co studio

For brothers

The room should be divided into at least two zones: sleeping and working.

The furniture chosen is comfortable, multifunctional and compact. If the nursery is large, then separate beds should be provided for the boys. To maintain personal space between them, it is appropriate to place a cabinet, rack or screen. Parents need to provide children with identical items: bedside tables, separate shelves, table and chair. It turns out that two children's rooms are created for two teenagers.

In a small room, it is rational to buy a bunk bed. It will allow each child to have his own personal territory. As an alternative, folding sofas are used. Small teenage rooms can be equipped with transformable furniture. It is multifunctional, compact, and convenient.

The children's room should have a designated seating area. You can hang a TV in it, put a bookcase, and sports equipment. Lighting should not spoil the eyes. A room for teenage boys can be decorated with interestingly shaped lamps.

There should be no clutter of things in the room. The design is chosen based on the personality of each teenager, taking into account his wishes. There must be a place where children can receive their guests. For this, a bean bag chair would be appropriate, which would become a kind of highlight of the interior or a sofa.

Depending on the age of the children, you can design a nursery using the following themes as a basis:

• sport;
• cars;
• robots;
• marine or ethnic style;
• high tech.

In a marine style, white wallpaper and light floors are suitable, accompanied by blue or light blue curtains. For sports, a combination of light wallpaper and wooden floors is recommended, and curtains in dark colors. It is not necessary to choose plain wallpaper. If desired, curtains can be replaced with blinds.

The design of a teenage room should reflect the individuality of each of its two owners. A minimum of decor is needed. Children themselves will decorate their room to their liking.

Model of a bunk bed with a corner wardrobe

Girl, boy or shared nursery?

Layout of a children's room 10 sq. m. largely depends on the number of children and their gender. A wall bars, a bed in the shape of a car, a motorcycle or a dinosaur would be appropriate in a boy’s room.

Photo wallpaper here can reflect space, astronomical or sports themes. The windows of a boy's room are usually closed with blinds or straight, plain curtains.

The design of a girl's room has its own nuances. Here, a mandatory piece of furniture is a dressing table, because even little princesses love to preen themselves in front of a mirror.

Girls are the future guardians of the family hearth, which is why most of them all want to take care of someone.

An aquarium or a cage with a pet can be located here.

If two children live in the room, a bunk bed will help save space. The main thing is to provide each child with a separate personal space for games and hobbies.

Furniture

When choosing furniture for a children's room, you should adhere to certain rules:

1. Give preference to furniture made from moisture-resistant durable materials. Boys love to conduct various experiments, spill water, and use furniture in their games. Only high-quality materials can withstand this for a long time.
2. Avoid buying furniture with sharp corners and protruding parts. Even the calmest guys start to quarrel and push each other from time to time. Children will inevitably be injured if they fall on the corner of a table or other furniture.
3. Multifunctional furniture, in which several more cabinets and storage compartments have been added, will be of great benefit. Over the years, the number of things children have only increases and they need to be stored somewhere.
4. Consider ordering a large corner cabinet. It will save room space, but will remain as spacious as traditional sliding wardrobes.
5. If the color scheme of the room is light, buy furniture made from easy-to-clean materials.

Furnishings

A children's bedroom must have:

• beds or sofa for sleeping;
• sofa for daytime reading;
• ergonomic desk, chair for it;
• bedside chairs for laying clothes.

A bright room filled with high-quality and comfortable furniture will be an ideal place for your baby to spend time.

The second point is controversial. Every parent knows that you need to read while sitting at the table, with an even posture. But children at their age are not assiduous. Therefore, it is better to immediately properly arrange the sofa for reading books. It is installed so as to provide good illumination during the day, and at night - free penetration of light from a chandelier or floor lamps.

Designers advise paying more attention to the child’s opinion when choosing the image of the future room.

Look at the selection of photographs accompanying the article. There's sure to be something there just for you.

Preferences of the children themselves

Every parent knows about the preferences of their children. They are visible in any little things: requests for gifts for the holidays, favorite fairy tales, films, music. But besides this, every parent knows how fickle the hobbies of children up to a certain age are, and remodeling a room every year is a dubious initiative. Therefore, when discussing with your children what exactly they want to see in their future room, offer them several options that you yourself consider to be as permanent as possible or easily reconstructed. It is not always easy for two children to come to an agreement with their parents, and it is even more difficult for them to agree with each other. Therefore, be prepared for protracted negotiations. The room may have to be decorated in such a way that both owners get their own separate theme. In any case, do not refuse the opinion of your children. They will have to spend most of their time in the room for several years.

Choosing shades

It has already been invented before us that blue is a boy’s color and pink is a girl’s color. But in a small room, such contrasting colors should not be used to divide the room into two halves.

In this case, it is better to give preference to a neutral range of colors, while it can be bright (even desirable) or pastel.

Beware of using black, brown or any other dark colors - the nursery should be joyful and positive. Look at the photo - the diverse interiors should inspire you.

• Lilac, lavender, green, and blue shades are good for a bright, warm room with windows facing south.
• Yellow, warm lavender, beige tones will “warm” a room located in the north.
• White color is good in any room. But will it be practical and not boring? You can complement it with accents of red, electric blue or bright green – generously, without skimping.
• You should be careful with black. They can only adjust the room - visually “raise” the ceilings or divide the room into zones.

It’s another matter if the size of the nursery allows it to be divided into two equal parts. This is the simplest nursery design for children of different sexes. Precisely on the same ones to avoid quarrels. Then, using a partition we divide the room.

Such a room will be comfortable for small children, schoolchildren, adult teenage children, and children of different ages.

The general color design can be in three styles.

1. Monochrome. Each zone is painted in its own shade, but belonging to the same color spectrum: plum and lilac, lilac and fuchsia, violet and violet. But you will definitely need to dilute this monochrome with bright details - pillows, lampshades, textiles, furniture fronts.
2. General background. The whole room is decorated in the same color. In this case, it is zoned with the help of decor - posters, stencil drawings on the walls, the same textiles, furniture, screen or curtain.
3. A game of contrast. For the girl's and boy's parts of the room, opposite shades are chosen that are in harmony with each other: lilac and gray, pink and green, yellow and dark blue, gray and pink, light purple and green, sand and brown, etc.

You can stylistically connect two zones separated by a partition with accessories. Boys' paintings are framed in wine or yellow frames, and girls have blue pillows on the bed. Another connecting link in the interior can be shelves of the same color and configuration, present on both the women's and men's sides.

Basic requirements and features

It is quite obvious that each family will have its own most important aspects that parents will pay attention to. But there are also general requirements for the design and renovation of a room in which two boys will live:

1. The materials chosen to decorate the room and the furniture are made from environmentally friendly raw materials. You can’t try to save money in this matter, since children spend most of their time in their room. Poor quality materials will likely lead to allergic reactions or other health problems.
2. The room should be as spacious and safe as possible. This will allow children to actively move around it without fear of injury. If the size of the room is small, you should think about buying transformable furniture.
3. The interior of the room should have a lot of both artificial and natural light. A large window and various lighting fixtures will come to the rescue. If possible, place the nursery in that part of the apartment or house whose windows are located on the sunny side.

Make your children's dreams come true

Stars on the ceiling, balls on the wall, favorite cartoon characters - there can be many motifs in a children's room for brothers, but which one should you choose? First of all, take the children's interests into account. If you have an athlete at home, decorate his space with a rug that imitates a green lawn and paint one of the walls the same shade. Instead of a chair, use a pouf in the shape of a soccer ball

If you have an athlete at home, decorate his space with a rug that imitates a green lawn and paint one of the walls the same shade. Instead of a chair, use a pouf in the shape of a soccer ball.

Don't forget about posters of your favorite players - print your chosen photos and hang them in frames, and the green wall will become a great backdrop for them. If your child wins medals or cups, place them in a designated area.

Not only sports, but also space is the passion of many young people. Create a starry sky with colorful paints and decorate them with a moon sticker - the fluorescent gadget will shine at night.

Paint the wall near the bed with a planet pattern - this is a characteristic element, so use it only on one surface and paint over the rest with white paint.

Interesting solutions for a teenager's room

Adolescence is one of the most difficult periods in a person’s life. This is the age at which a young, not fully formed person desperately fights for his own independence and seeks his place in the world in general and his life in particular. And you have two unbalanced, sometimes aggressive, often uncontrollable, but such beloved children. And a comfortable room for two teenagers, creating a cozy space, their own “corner” for each of them is a real help in creating psychological comfort for growing children.

Let a room for two teenage girls make their lives a little more enjoyable, and let a stylish and thoughtful room for two teenage boys allow them to indulge in their hobbies. With a little diligence, both your boys and girls will master the comfortable space of a grown-up room, customizing it “for themselves.” This is a fascinating process, if you think back to your teenage years, you will probably smile and hang a “no trespassing” sign on the door of the former nursery.

Furniture as a nursery base for two children

When two children of opposite sexes live in a room, they will always find a way to be together. The parents' task is to give them the opportunity for at least relative privacy.

Because The children's area is usually small, making partitions is not an option. Zoning is done by the arrangement of furniture: beds, tables, cabinets. Therefore, let's start with the shape and design of furniture.

White furniture

Because The interests of different sexes and especially different ages differ greatly; it is better to make furniture in a neutral color. And here is a trap - furniture cannot be made in ordinary wood colors. The nursery will still have a lot of bright, saturated colors, and they won’t go with the natural wood browns and yellows. This is why most children's rooms look terrible.

I discussed in detail the importance of white furniture in children's rooms in previous thematic materials. Be sure to check out:

1. Children's room for a boy
2. For two boys
3. Children's room for girls
4. For two girls

And in general, the most important material I strongly advise you to read: How to combine colors in the interior.

To keep it simple, the only color left for the furniture is completely neutral – white. White goes perfectly with any, even bright colors, it is in fashion, it looks stylish. It is also advisable to choose the color of the laminate flooring with low saturation (i.e., without obvious shifting into shades). Cool example of a nursery for two children, 13 square meters with white furniture:

You can add brightness with wallpaper, accessories and toys. But because children of different sexes, the topic should be neutral, and preferably long-lasting.

Neutral themes from children's cartoons or a superhero theme work well. Interesting design in antique or Scandinavian style, a kind of children's Provence. The latter will be relevant until adulthood.

Important:

If your two children, in addition to gender, also differ in age, the design of the nursery should be made for the older one.

When a child is small, he sees a fairy tale in everything and does not experience any discomfort from ordinary design. But in adolescence, being in an overly childish room is bad. This can cause problems during an already difficult period of personal development. Read more in the material about the design of rooms for teenagers. Photo example of a nursery for two, where one teenager is 17.8 sq. m..

Ideas

The smaller the area per person, the more difficult it is to design, the more important all sorts of clever tricks and ideas become.

Storage locations

Some toys for a boy and a girl will overlap, others will be personal. Things are all different, which means that in a nursery for two you need a lot of storage space and they must be separated. If you've given up on a bunk bed, it's a good idea to make use of the space underneath it. You can either place drawers under it, or make a full-fledged closet by raising the bed to the 2nd level.

In general, vertical zoning is the main design tool for a nursery. Two children - a lot of things. We are trying to make cabinets, shelves and drawers everywhere we can reach.

The problem with storing toys is that children often want a specific one and turn everything upside down until they find it. An interesting solution is transparent containers. They don't look as neat as cabinets and shelves, but they fit more and are easier to search through.

A good option for a real nursery, where the furniture is planned correctly:
