If the room does not have a large area, then some functional areas can be combined:

• A bunk bed can be installed in the sleeping and resting area.
• Instead of two wardrobes for storing clothes, you can purchase one, but roomy.
• Instead of two desks, you can put one table with a long countertop.

Making room for two heterosexual teens

The room for heterosexual teenagers must be divided into two zones - for the girl and for the boy. But when choosing a color scheme, you need to take into account that the colors not only combine with each other, but also smoothly transition, without creating contrast. It is best to design a room in calm, restrained tones. As for furniture and other decorative elements, everything should be designed in the same style. Also pay attention to the color of the furniture. If the walls in the room are decorated in light color, then it is advisable to buy furniture in dark colors. Otherwise, the walls and furniture will merge with each other.

Choosing a wallpaper to design a room for a teenager

To decorate the walls in the room, you can use paint, liquid wallpaper, ordinary traditional wallpaper and photo wallpaper. The color and pattern depends entirely on the personal preferences of the child. If your tastes do not match, then you can do the following. For example, if a child chose wallpaper that is too bright, then in this case three walls can be pasted with wallpaper in pastel colors and preferably without a picture. And decorate the large wall with the wallpaper that the child chose. Also, according to a similar principle, you can use photo wallpaper.

We make out the ceiling

If the height of the room allows, then you can install two-level stretch ceilings or ceilings made of drywall. For rooms with a low ceiling, you can use conventional stretch ceilings or mirrored. By the way, the last option will allow you to visually increase the room.

Choosing a flooring

The flooring must be chosen taking into account the style of the room. For a room decorated in a classic style, you can use parquet, laminate or linoleum. For high-tech style, you can use ceramic floor tiles. But you should remember that such a floor should be warm.

If the child is involved in sports, then in this case, you can lay a carpet on the floor, which not only protects the floor from damage, but also softens the blow.

How to organize lighting

There should be a lot of light in the teenager’s room. And if there is such an opportunity, then it would be nice to make it possible to adjust the brightness level of lighting in accordance with the requirements of the child.
