If you asked the question “Do you need a children's room?”, Think first about how important personal space is for you. Each of us has our own place where his personal belongings lie, where you can do your favorite thing and where you can take a break from your family, read a book or just lie in silence. So the child. Creating a personal space for him is a way of saying how much you love him, how you trust him and understand him.
It is especially difficult to single out a full-fledged personal place when you have two boys, but at the same time it is extremely necessary for each child to feel like a complete person. How to do this, how to delimit the space between the territory of one and the territory of another, as well as how to arrange a boy's room, we'll talk in this article.
The choice of finishes for the nursery
Remember! In order for the child to feel truly comfortable in his own room, he must also take part in the creation of its interior. You can prompt and guide, but the decisive opinion must remain with him. Listening to it and creating a children's room together with your boys, you will find yourself in an amazing, fascinating magical world of childhood.
Choose a color scheme
The choice of colors depends on the age of the child, because at different times we perceive colors differently. For kids up to 3 years old it is not recommended to resort to a bright palette in the interior, on the contrary, it is preferable to calm pastel shades of bright colors. With age, you can change the interior in a richer combination, which cause more activity, desire for creativity, increase the sharpness of feelings.
Therefore, in the room for two boys, when one of them is a newborn, you will have to resort to the division of space - for the baby to arrange the interior in calm colors, for the older boy - in a more saturated palette.
Now color. Traditionally boyish bedrooms make out in blue, blue, gray, green, brown colors, red color is less often used, which is considered exciting, but in reasonable quantity has the right to life. Classic black and white color is perfect for the room “for growth”, but it would not be entirely appropriate if one of the children is not 3 years old. Rather, it is an option for two teens. Below is a table of shades and their compatibility in the interior, as well as examples of the design of a nursery for two boys.
| Colour | Shades | Combination |
| Blue | Blue Azure Colour морской волны Vasilkovy Heavenly Gray Aquamarine Mint | White All light shades (beige, cream, sand) Yellow Apricot Gray |
| Gray | Plain gray Warm gray Cool gray | All light shades (beige, cream, sand) Violet Green Red Yellow Blue |
| Green | Lime Pistachio Mint Gray green Turquoise Grassy Tea tree | Gray All light shades (beige, cream, sand) Yellow Violet Chocolate |
Choosing a wallpaper
Having decided on the colors of the future interior, proceed to the choice of wallpaper. There are several secrets that help to highlight the advantages of the room and hide its flaws:
- A small pattern and a strip on the wallpaper raises the ceiling and visually expands the space (ideal for a small bedroom);
- Dark and bright tones constrict the space, so they should be at least in the room. If you want to get a bright room, it is better to shade the bright wallpaper with rich furniture and accessories or to allocate one wall for the bright color (for example, at the head of the bed or as a partition between the two room halves);
- Use wallpaper, especially in small rooms such as Khrushchev. Deep 3D drawing will expand the spatial framework, diversify the interior and probably will appeal to your boys.
- The walls can also be used for creativity - select a place for children's drawings (using washable wallpaper) or stick a special vinyl chalk board.
We make the ceiling
Do not forget to use the ceiling in creating the interior, the aesthetic look of the room and the amount of space depend on it. Visually raising the ceiling, making it more light air allows lighting along its edges or a 3D illustration - blue or starry sky, space, etc.
Zoning and selection of furniture for the nursery
We are creating a children's bedroom for two boys, so zoning is indispensable. Moreover, the difficulty lies in the fact that we not only have to divide the room into main zones - sleeping, work, play and storage space, but also divide these parts in half so that there is enough space for each boy. This can be done with the help of various tricky variations of modular and cabinet furniture.
Sleeping area
The best option to create a bed for both boys in a small bedroom are bunk beds or roll-out beds. If the space of the room allows, it is possible to put separate beds or case furniture - a workplace + a bed attic. A budget option can be a chair bed or a folding sofa, but of course, it is better if your child sleeps on a comfortable bed with an orthopedic mattress. Examples of registration of beds you can see in our photo gallery below.
Game Zone
In the design of the game of the room fully rely on the opinion of their children. They will tell you what they want to see - the wall bars, basketball hoop, hut and a tent or table for drawing. Be sure to put a chest or a box for storing toys in the playing area, so as not to stumble upon them at every corner of the room.
Study area
The design of this area, as well as the bed, depends on the area of the room. The main thing is that each child has his own workplace. If the area of the room is large, you can put two separate tables, but more often it’s the other way around, so it's okay if you put one long table where both boys can settle down without disturbing each other. Another compromise option to save space are sliding tables, which are assembled in case of uselessness. The main thing is that the workplace is well lit.
Storage of things
A closet for two boys can be one, but it will be necessary to divide the space equally for both. Ideally, if the wardrobe is a two-fold, where one half will belong to one boy, the other - to the second. Alternatively, you can designate this division in different colors.
Layout of the room depending on the area
Remember! Whatever the area of the children's room, do not forget to use the walls and the space under the furniture - shelves, racks, laundry baskets that can be put under the bed. The more you free up space, the more freedom your children will have for games and movement!
Layout for a room 10-12 sq. M
The organization of space in such a small room is best done in two levels. The optimal set of furniture for this type of layout:
- Bunk bed with steps-drawers or sliding cells under the lower bed for storage. Optimally, if the bed is perpendicular to the window, i.e. diffused light. However, it should not block the entrance.
- One common table with a long narrow worktop, wallboards, shelving and drawers, allowing you to organize two jobs at once. Comfortable adjustable chairs. Put it near the window or perpendicular to the window (it is believed that the workplace is more comfortable if you sit sideways to the door or with your back to the wall).
- Small built-in wardrobe or chest of drawers for clothes. It is better to put it at the wall opposite the window.
- Toy box. Puffs can be used with an opening lid and storage space.
And, of course, no artificial partitions that clutter the space. If you want to divide the room for boys, do it with different colors of the walls.
Layout for a room of 14 sq. M
In such a room you can think about the separate planning and put:
- two separate beds or two modules from the desktop and loft bed. They can be placed along one wall, parallel or perpendicular. The main thing is that they do not block the natural light;
- small separate tables by the window or perpendicular to it;
- spacious closet opposite the window;
- play area - a wall or a small toy fortress.
Layout for a room of 18 sq. M
On this area there is where to roam. With full confidence, you can put not only full-fledged separate furniture, but also divide the room into two zones so that each boy feels comfortable in his own half. We offer the following zoning options:
- Bookshelves and shelves;
- Screens and cleanable partitions;
- Cupboard;
- Plasterboard partition;
- Sliding doors;
- Curtains.
Naturally, such a layout option is possible only if, after the reorganization of the space, both halves remain well lit with natural light. If the light does not allow to divide the room in half for the two boys, select one of the zones, for example, the bedroom in the less lit part of the room.
We make the room according to the age of the children
Baby room
Creating a room for kids, first of all, remember about security. The floors on which the kids spend the most time, the furniture that can be tested on the tooth - everything must be environmentally friendly, safe and natural. No sharp corners, unreliably fixed modules, open sockets and wiring. If you install any sports equipment, be sure to put mats.
Furniture should be a reasonable minimum - a bed and a wardrobe (chest of drawers), leave the rest of the place under the games, running around and other joys of kids.
Let a lot of light into the room, the walls should be decorated in soothing pastel colors.
Room for schoolchildren
As the children grow, you will need to allocate space for study, so take care of a comfortable roomy and well-lit desk for both students. Be sure to add a rack for books and stationery.
Colourа можно использовать более насыщенные, чем для малышей.
Room for teens
In fact, the room for teenagers is not very different from the room for schoolchildren, it is divided into the same zones, the only thing that more adult tendencies will be outlined in the interior design.
Room for children with a big age difference
A big difference in the age of children is a reason to divide the room into two zones, because children have few common interests, and there must be a personal space for everyone. If space does not allow, you can combine a sleeping place in a bunk bed, but here's a playroom for the baby and a study area for the teenager should not interfere with each other.
