When children are growing they go through many stages, and you have to adapt to them. It is not the same to meet their needs when they are babies than when they are children or when they become adolescents. That is why the decoration of their room, the place that for them is totally theirs, must vary when they go from children to youth. Their tastes change, but so do their needs.
In this new stage they will be developing their tastes and their personality, they will have more things to store and they will take care of having everything organized. It is also a stage in which studies are very important, and we must take all this into account in order to know how to decorate youth bedrooms.
Goodbye to children's aesthetics
When children become young, they leave behind their childish tastes. It is a time in which they are consolidating their personality and in which they like to feel older. That is why youth bedrooms should not be so childish, although they can keep something fun and special. In this case we see how they have given it a more adult and urban touch with metal cabinets, a bunk bed and a gray and red desk, but they still have superhero print cushions.
A good idea is to remove anything that is too childish, such as stuffed animals or children's prints, and replace it with more youthful touches or by neutral patterns and simple cushions. When in doubt, it is better to stay in a neutral decoration that they can fill with their own things.
Themed bedrooms
One of the trends that we see, not only in children's bedrooms but also in youth bedrooms, is that of themed bedrooms. Thematic spaces can be a good idea when decorating, since they give us more ideas than if we had to start from scratch. In this case we have found a youth bedroom with a military aesthetic, with camouflage textiles, an olive green desk or metal shelves. Other ideas can be a bedroom in a marine style or with a theme inspired by the city and the urban world, which is also common in these bedrooms for young people.
Convenient storage
In a youth bedroom you also need spaces that are used with good storage space. At this stage they tend to accumulate more things, since they have more hobbies, more clothes and technology. They will also be responsible for ensuring that everything is in order, and therefore it is necessary to have enough storage solutions on hand. A good wardrobe is essential, and built-ins are the ones that make the best use of space.
In addition, there are other ideas, such as a bed with a storage area underneath, those trundle beds in which you can put a mattress or store things. We can also add shelves or baskets, so that they have many spaces at hand in which to store everything and do it themselves. And a great trick to save space is to use bunk beds. Not only to add another bed, but also to be able to put a study area underneath, for example.
Study area
At this stage they will also be focused on their studies, so an area will be very necessary for them to concentrate. Must add a desktop with space to organize your things, such as a practical shelf or cans to organize your pencils. It is important that they have a comfortable seat and space to store books and have a laptop. Trestle tables are very practical, since they can be easily moved and are stored taking up little space. We can also add a cork notice board to help them organize themselves and also to add motivating ideas or photographs that they like.
Youth decorative accessories
A youth room will never be complete without its decorative accessories. We have thought about the storage, the style and the furniture that are necessary, such as the study desk. As surely we will not change the beds or many of the furniture, everything will change with decorative accessories. Textiles can help us a lot to create a feeling of a new room. Add cushions with cheerful patterns, or with themes or colors that they like, since at this stage they will need us to respect their own tastes more. If you love a color, use it to decorate your room.
On the other hand, there are also other ideas, such as that of decorate the walls. Adding a patterned wallpaper can add a lot of play to the room. Also the carpets, since it must be a warm place where they will spend a lot of time. Do not forget details such as the pictures with messages for the walls. And we can also let them do a DIY project with photos or things that are important to them. In this case, it is about adding their own personal touch to the room.
