at the upper level of light zoning it is worth installing a chandelier or spot;
floor lamps and pendant lamps help create a mid-level;
installation of lamps and night lights - lower level;
It is allowed to install interior lighting in cabinets and wardrobes.

Photo printing is a great way to add a child’s individuality and a bit of charm. An excellent option would be an image of the sky with clouds (as in the photo). This is a simple but elegant design that will fit into any interior. In photo printing catalogs you can find images for every taste - from fairy-tale characters to flowers and butterflies, order a thematic collage and even transfer your favorite photo from a family album or a picture of the child himself to the ceiling.

Starry sky on the ceiling in the nursery

Another fail-safe way to decorate a suspended ceiling in a nursery is the “Starry Sky” system. It is created using LED or fiber optic systems. LEDs allow you to create complex effects - for example, simulate the rotation of galaxies, the fall of comets, and “form” new constellations. Fiber optic systems are more static, but they allow you to realistically simulate the twinkling of stars. The operation of the systems is controlled by rheostats or remote controls.

Install “Starry Sky” in 2 ways. In the first case, the lamps previously installed on clamps and attached to the main ceiling are carefully “threaded” through the punctures in the stretch ceiling. In the second case, a false ceiling is first built, onto which lamps are attached, and a suspended ceiling is installed below. The maximum effect can be achieved if you “strengthen” it with a thematic image, as in the presented photograph.

There is an opportunity - take the best for your children!

But ceilings for boys can and even should embody a real masculine character. The picture shows an excellent ceiling option for boys, representing a harmonious combination of purple and white.

Such a ceiling is made “for growth” and would be appropriate not only in the room of a schoolchild, but also of a teenager.

Design of a stretch ceiling in a children's bedroom: secrets and tricks

A few simple tips will help you arrange a suspended ceiling in a nursery with maximum benefit for both the child and the parents:

When choosing drawings for photo printing, it is worth choosing neutral options “for growth”, since children grow up quickly, and if a 5-year-old child is a fan of Luntik, then a 7-year-old will probably switch to Superman. If you want to decorate the ceiling with a picture, then it is better to allocate a separate area for it, limiting it with a border, so that you can easily change the picture without dismantling the entire ceiling.
It is not necessary to make the entire ceiling glossy. But colored curly glossy inserts, as shown in Fig. 3., will visually enlarge the room and add a “zest” to the interior.
You can zone a room not only by color, but also by height. For example, the ceilings above the bed can be lowered to create a more relaxed atmosphere.

Often, in children's rooms, including those with suspended ceilings, sports complexes (wall bars) are installed. There are several options here: choose a complex with wall mounting or install the complex in advance before installing the ceiling. However, if the idea to buy a wall bars came after installing a stretch ceiling, there is no need to worry. In such cases, the ceiling is dismantled completely or partially, and the wall is installed through mortgages and rings (like ceiling chandeliers).

It is important to consider that the installation of wall bars in the presence of suspended ceilings can only be entrusted to specialists.

Don't risk your child's health. Contact the specialists! They will not only quickly and efficiently install a suspended ceiling in a child’s room, but will also install a wall bars without extra costs and nerves.

Features of choosing the color of a stretch ceiling for a children's bedroom

When choosing the color of a stretch ceiling in a nursery, you need to take into account that each color has a certain effect on the child’s psyche:

Orange. Tones, invigorates, creates a “sunny mood”. To prevent the child from becoming overexcited, orange is balanced with blue or purple.
Green pastel shades. A universal color that has a beneficial effect on the nervous system will help noisy and active children get together.
Yellow. Improves brain function, has a positive effect on memory and concentration. It would look appropriate in the “working” area above the desk.
Blue and light blue. Noble and deep “boyish” colors. Calms hyperactive kids. Combine with yellow and orange.
Violet. Awakens a love of creativity and develops the ability to think originally. Lilac and lavender are suitable for girls as a replacement for pink or in combination with it.
Pink. A typical “girly” color – delicate and a little playful. But it’s important not to overdo it. Light pink is perceived by the brain as blue, that is, it calms, but dark pink is akin to red - it gets on the nerves and can awaken aggression. Combines with turquoise, light green, gray, lavender.
Grey. Delicate gray, pearl or with a slight pearlescent tint gives concentration and creates a serious and calm mood. Combines with peach and beige colors. It is worth remembering that it is good for older children; something brighter will suit very young children.
White. A good color for a small nursery with low ceilings. But dazzling white hurts the eye, so it is preferable to stick to milky and creamy shades, as well as ivory.

It is better not to use black, brown and marsh colors in children's rooms, as these are “heavy” adult colors, too gloomy for kids. You should avoid bright red and crimson shades, as they irritate the nervous system and provoke aggression.

Lighting for children's rooms with suspended ceilings

Combined lighting is the best solution for children's rooms!

On average, a child spends 60–70% of the time in the nursery, so it is important to provide adequate lighting. If the room is large, an excellent solution would be spotlights on brackets, evenly distributed over the surface of the ceiling, taking into account the fact that each spot illuminates approximately 2 square meters. m. area. For small rooms, a lamp in the center is sufficient. Individual areas (for example, for classes) can be illuminated by grouping several spotlights. A good option is an LED strip that softly illuminates the perimeter of the room or illuminates individual tiers of a multi-level ceiling structure.

For lighting, “warm” spectrum lamps of 4000–5000 K are chosen, for LED strips – 200–2400 K. The power of the lamps is selected taking into account the fact that per 1 sq. m. need 15–18 W. That is, for a children's room of 10 square meters. m. you will need 3 lamps of 60 W. It is advisable that the power of the lamps does not exceed 60–80 W, since too bright light will turn a cozy nursery into an operating room.

Glass and crystal lamps not only break easily, but also cast glare that is harmful to vision. The best choice for children's rooms are lampshades and lamps with a fabric base or closed shades made of tempered glass. The selection of the lamp itself depends on the interior and the desires of the child, but in general, for girls, lamps with floral motifs are chosen, and for boys, themed ones in the form of rockets or stylized as balls.

The formation of a child’s character is influenced by many things, including the interior of the room in which he spends most of his free time, studies and sleeps.

Furniture Features

Considering all the functions that this room is designed to perform, it is necessary to take care of the correct furniture. The room must have a workplace, a bed and a wardrobe. A workplace means a table that is convenient for working at a computer, studying and creativity. It’s good if it has drawers, this technique will help keep all writing and art supplies in one place.

The chair should provide good support for the spine - this is important for a maturing body. A special computer chair would be an excellent choice.

It not only has orthopedic characteristics, but is also extremely comfortable due to its adjustable seat height. This option is also suitable for a child’s room, since you don’t have to constantly change chairs or add a bunch of pillows so that the child can reach the tabletop.

The work surface should be well lit. It is better to place the table next to the table, so that the light falls on the left side for right-handers and vice versa for left-handers. If this is not possible, you should make sure that the light cast by the table lamp is bright enough. Schoolchildren spend enough time at the table to ruin their eyesight. Many children and teenagers like to decorate the area around the table, decorating it with posters, photographs, and stickers. In order not to spoil the surface of the walls, you can hang a special cork board, which you don’t have to buy in a store. Or stretch cords of thick yarn or garlands with paper clips or small clothespins on which you can attach your favorite things.

Speaking of a place to sleep, owners of small apartments often abandon beds in favor of folding sofas. They are in no way inferior in convenience and are suitable for everyday use. In addition, there are models with drawers for linen, where you can store not only pillows and blankets, but also seasonal clothes or things, toys. When folded, they are an ideal place to seat guests, serve as a place for reading or relaxing.

If the preferred option is a bed

You should pay attention to modular furniture, which combines a desk, a shelving unit and a bed on top. This option is ideal for small rooms, plus there is space for games

You can install a bed on a podium with drawers and niches for storing things. It looks original, and to create privacy, you can hang a canopy, then the sleeping area will be separated from the rest of the room.

Which wardrobe to install depends on the overall style of the bedroom. If the room is small, it is permissible to install a built-in wardrobe. It will suit almost any interior, since its doors can be made from glass with a pattern, or from mirrors, plastic or wooden panels. Modular sets for the bedroom can also be suitable for the nursery. They are easy to assemble and disassemble, and also vary into different compositions. Wall-mounted modular cabinets offer plenty of space to organize your belongings. More spacious rooms will accommodate not only a separate wardrobe, but also a sophisticated chest of drawers.

Additional furnishings may include a hanging chair, poufs, floor cushions or chairs for entertaining. A wide and low window sill can be turned into a small sofa. In addition, it is possible to add a wall bars or other exercise equipment for active and active girls. You can place a rug made of natural materials in the center of the room so you can lie on the floor. It is also better to choose natural flooring, from parquet or laminate boards. For a child's room, you should choose furniture made of wood or chipboard rather than plastic. Low quality plastic can be toxic.

Interior of a children's room with an original stretch ceiling

Combinations of plasterboard elements located under a stretched PVC ceiling panel are widely known. Two-level structures are perfect for zoning such a multifunctional room as a children's room. Nowadays such designs are used less and less when decorating children’s rooms. Various arcs and circles are going out of fashion, and individual elements in the shape of waves and clouds, etc. in a child’s room look unnecessarily bulky and do not give a feeling of lightness and flight. Designers recommend making greater use of bright, backlit reflective inserts. And limit the number of plasterboard boxes.

Children's room with a fashionable stretch ceiling

Tip: It is quite possible to implement several ideas in one room. For example, you can use a “sky of stars” in the sleeping area, and cut bright drops in the play area of the room. At the same time, it is worth leaving the ceiling austerely light, “hovering” above the student’s desk.

Where to place the switches

A children's room cannot do without switches that the child can use independently when he grows up.

For convenience, you need to install a durable switch near the door. Sockets and switches should be installed in the playing area and near the desk. After all, the child will need to connect a lamp, laptop, or e-reader.

To turn on household appliances, a socket on a free wall would not hurt, because school-age children can vacuum cleaner, use a hairdryer, and charge their phone on their own.

Based on the photo, you can choose a light fixture that you like and is suitable for the children's bedroom. Properly organized lighting is the key to a child’s good health and vision.

What to pay attention to

Let's look at the general rules when choosing finishes for a teenager's room.

Understanding and acceptance. You must clearly understand what your grown child really wants and invite him to choose together, gently giving advice. Let's give an example. A fifteen-year-old girl dreamed of black wallpaper in her room (despite the fact that the dimensions of the room are tiny, about 2.5 by 2 meters).

The mother agreed to buy what her daughter wanted, on the condition that they would go to choose together and take what they both liked. The store had black wallpaper, but my mother suggested we go around and see what else was there.

My daughter was delighted with the white wallpaper with a black and gray pattern of brickwork, cars, houses, faces and inscriptions. As a result, everyone was happy, and instead of pink wallpaper in the nursery, they changed to light wallpaper. The room turned out to be spacious, the girl felt more cozy and comfortable.

Now imagine what would happen if mom decided to arrange a surprise. If she bought gloomy black wallpaper, it would depress the child and mother and make the room smaller. If mom had chosen the light option, her daughter would not have accepted it out of a feeling of reluctance.

Functionality and practicality . Furniture, layout and decoration - everything should be a little grown up (psychologically), taking into account the fact that in a few years the child will turn into a guy or girl with completely different tastes. But make the decor, which can be easily changed, teenage. For example, if blue furniture and wallpaper are like a bone in your son’s throat, choose adult furniture and neutral wall decoration, add a bright bean bag chair, posters and stickers. Of course, if you have enough money and want to make repairs every couple of years, you can skip this item.

Material selection

Choosing the preferred material for a teenager's room is not easy. His choice is based on the style and design of the room. For classic styles, the best choice would be a matte fabric. It resembles a canvas in appearance, so you can effectively dilute the interior with a pattern or decor on the ceiling. The color is usually white or light shades.

Fabric has other advantages as well. It is produced wide, so it is suitable for impressive-sized children. There are no seams. The design “breathes,” which is important, since the formation of rot or mold on the base ceiling is excluded even with poor ventilation.

The fabric is durable and antistatic. It is characterized by average resistance to damage from sharp objects, which is important for children's premises. Fabric structures can withstand low temperatures, detergents, and dyeing.

Another option for the ceiling is polyvinyl chloride fabric. it is usually glossy or with a mirror effect, although matte canvases are also available. Film width is up to 3 meters. Wider webs are created by welding. The seam is neat and thin, so it does not spoil the appearance.

The main advantage is high resistance to moisture. At the same time, the strength is lower than that of fabric analogues. Therefore, you should be extremely careful with sharp objects. Film canvases are afraid of low temperatures. But they have an interesting appearance and often complement children's ones.

If desired, pay attention to the satin texture of the fabric; it is distinguished by a soft shine and good performance characteristics. But such materials are not in demand.

What you should absolutely not do

Let's go from the opposite. Let's look at what would be a mistake and what you should never do. If you decide to renovate a nursery, don’t even think about arranging a surprise - sending your child to camp/to relatives so that upon arrival he will enter a completely different interior.

A teenager's room is his personal space. It should be decorated and equipped the way he wants in terms of colors, style and layout (but under the wise, sensitive and unobtrusive guidance of his parents).

The only option when a surprise is appropriate: the child has been asking for something specific for a long time, drew a design project, showed pictures on the Internet, but you resisted. And it's still not worth it! But let’s look at how it’s needed further.

And one more important point. You cannot indulge a teenager if you understand that his choice is absolutely ridiculous (not just that you don’t like it, but psychologically, morally unacceptable, absolutely not practical).

Tips for choosing lighting

Lighting for a teenager's room is selected in accordance with hygienic requirements and the nature of the design. Possible options:

Spotlights. They are able to provide the room with the right amount of light and look neat.
Volumetric chandeliers. The best option for themed room decoration.
Combining spotlights and chandeliers will add coziness and aesthetics to a teenager’s room.
LED lights. With its help, interesting drawings or various figures are created on the ceiling.

If you cannot decide on the choice of preferred lighting on your own, seek help from specialists. They will prepare an impressive project that your child will love. If you wish, you can choose from the many options shown in the photo.
