How is your growing son's room decorated? Nothing in it reminds of the former nursery? It's already good. But how often does it happen that after a grandiose repair and rearrangement, the room of a teenage boy turns out to be well-equipped, functional, but ... faceless.

A cheerful bright nursery is for younger boys, a bedroom and a workplace are too dull, is this what a teenager who has his own room dreams of? So what should it be?

And you have to let go of your dreams. There are no mediocre boys, there are restless ones who have not found their job, or who have not decided to do what is interesting. Let the design of the room reflect the hobbies of a teenage boy and at the same time create an atmosphere in which he can improve, realize his ideas.

To give expressiveness to the room of a teenage boy, you should decorate it in a certain style - marine, safari, techno ...

There are a lot of interior styles. You can leaf through design magazines for a long time, but still not make a decision, not come to a consensus. At the same time, this choice can be greatly simplified. Ideas will flood in, the whole family will be involved in the creative process, and more than anyone else - the future owner of the new room, your teenage boy, who has the opportunity to create his own world.

To get started, you need the smallest thing - you need a chip. Design highlight.

Chip

We will proceed from the fact that boys without hobbies do not exist. Sometimes there are too many interests, sometimes, on the contrary, a teenager is fixated on one topic, with difficulty being distracted by everything that needs to be done simply because it is necessary.

Determining what is most important for a son is very simple. What is the hardest thing to get him off of? Which of his hobbies does he take criticism most acutely? It does not matter whether he reached great heights in this matter. Today, perhaps, he is only at the beginning of the path to excellence in boxing, or he dreams of a yacht that is not yet available, but all the shelves are lined with ship models and books. Sports and travel, guitar and chess, computer (how could it be without it) and architecture - the list of teenagers' hobbies is endless. Boys, they are so different, and it's wonderful.

"In a teenager's room, unlike younger boys' rooms, theatrical stylization should be avoided."

It is enough to know what a teenager is ready to devote all his time to and - here it is, a feature that will make a teenage boy's room unique. A guitar on the wall, shelves made of picturesquely battered old skateboards, a punching bag in the center of the room, an old-fashioned bookcase filled with wise tomes (if the house is a “nerd”), a yacht model, a synthesizer - any of these objects can become an expressive accent that organizes the space.

It is worth finding a chip, as the style immediately catches up, and there are the features of the situation, decorative elements, color scheme.

Interior style

Modern interior styles that are most appropriate when decorating a teenage boy's room:

1. For athletes: avant-garde, loft, high-tech;
2. For seekers of sacred truths and admirers of oriental cultures - ethnicity: oriental, Japanese, African, Egyptian;
3. For techies, computer scientists - avant-garde, high-tech, constructivism;
4. For travelers - African (safari), marine;
5. For artistic natures, musicians: avant-garde, kitsch, loft.

This list is not exhaustive, but I think it will help generate your own ideas.

Some modern styles deserve special attention because they help create a unique atmosphere, make a teenage boy's room really cool, one of a kind. Friends will appreciate it!

Vanguard

The avant-garde style emerged as a daring challenge to the classical notion of interior aesthetics. Functionality instead of embellishment, experiment and unexpected solutions instead of routine. Preference is given to large geometric shapes, rather than small details. Avant-garde welcomes pure colors: white, black, red, yellow, green, as well as contrasting combinations of several colors that enhance the dynamics and expression of a teenage boy's room. Moreover, not only walls, ceiling and furniture can be made in contrast, but, for example, sections of one of the walls can be painted in rich contrasting colors.

Furniture should carry the idea of ​​experimentation. In the forefront, unthinkable constructions and non-standard solutions are acceptable, subject to rationality, and not to an empty desire for originality. Hanging beds, shapeless soft chairs, filing cabinets, rotating shelves are acceptable.

Avant-garde style allows not only to create a comfortable space. Guys who are fond of technology, computers, can prove themselves as bold designers. Athletes in such a room will also be comfortable - the simulators will perfectly fit into the functional design of the avant-garde.

Loft

The loft style originated in New York in the forties of the 20th century, when abandoned buildings of factories and warehouses were adapted for housing. Specific industrial details - beams, pipelines, brick or concrete walls gave such premises a hard original flavor.

The basic principle of the loft is a large open space, barely filled with the necessary furniture. Bright, upholstered furniture, knickknacks and pouffes contrast with the unkempt wall surface. Rough brickwork is considered a special chic. Metal, glass, plastic are welcome.

A loft-style room is the dream of almost every modern teenage boy. It can become an organic habitat for both sports youths and artistic natures - artists and musicians.

High tech

Exquisite style of the era of the great 60s. Inspired by the ideas of conquering space, conquering worlds, technological progress. The high-tech interior is concise and functional. What is important for teenage boys is that such a room is easy to keep clean. There are no decorative elements here, the surface of furniture and walls is perfectly smooth, often shiny. There are no color restrictions, but cold colors are traditionally preferred. And no drawings on the walls or textiles.

Furniture of a clear geometric shape fits perfectly into this style, light, comfortable, with chrome-plated metal legs, upholstered in artificial leather. Instead of cabinets, it is better to use shelving.

Modern sports equipment can successfully fit into a high-tech interior. It can be assumed that such a laconic style will appeal not only to athletes, but also to "nerds", techies, computer scientists who do not like to be distracted by something.

African style

This is one of the ethnic styles, ideal for the room of a teenager who raves about travel and magical rites of African tribes.

Also, this style, which is also called "safari", will appeal to animal lovers.The interior contains images of exotic animals - in the pattern of wallpaper, in sculptures and paintings. Textiles with "predatory" prints imitate the skin of a zebra, leopard, tiger. The colors of the safari style include all shades of brown, from almost black wenge to sandy. The furniture is very light and simple, wooden or wicker. And an indispensable attribute of such a room is frightening ritual masks.

Sea style

For children captivated by the romance of sea travel, we can recommend the marine style. Marine style involves the use of ship paraphernalia. In this case, bunk beds or the division of the room into “cabins” look organic, which makes it especially preferable for a room in which two teenage boys live.

A nautical-style room is often done in colors:

• Brown, blue, white;
• Blue, white, dark red;
• Blue, white, golden.

Welcome: dark wood, ropes, shiny metal fittings, chains, bars, marine paraphernalia. But a sense of proportion is needed here. In a teenager's room, unlike younger boys, theatrical styling should be avoided.

Kitsch

If a teenager insists on completely incongruous furniture and decoration, this is not a reason to panic - feel free to decorate your boy's room in kitsch style. The idea of ​​kitsch is a mockery of rules, artistic traditions and styles. Bad taste, elevated to a principle, in itself becomes an original style - rebellious, relaxed, not without irony.

The color scheme welcomes any saturated, poisonous, neon colors, sharp contrasts, even gilding. In essence, kitsch is quotations from various historical styles combined into one whole. And in order for a single idea to be guessed in the design, artistic taste and a sense of proportion are necessary. In order to avoid variegation, as the simplest technique, it can be advised to separate fragments of different styles with black or white planes of walls and floors.

In fact, the kitsch style is most likely to be chosen by artistically gifted people. You can safely entrust the design of the room to the teenager himself - the boys intuitively feel this aesthetic, it is very appropriate for their age.

Constructivism

A room in the style of constructivism is a perfectionist's paradise. This design is suitable for teenagers who tend to classify and organize everything. Maximum space, minimum furniture. No small decor. Rational storage systems, thoughtful ergonomics. The compactness and simple forms of furniture are combined with eccentricity and asymmetry in interior design. Bold accents are very important to make a room look stylish.

Athletes in such an interior will probably be quite spacious, and lovers of thoughtful intellectual pursuits will like ergonomic solutions and a comfortable workplace.

The functionality of a teenage boy's room

It is important that a teenager in his room has all the conditions to do what he loves, study and have a good rest. There are three zones as standard:

1. Work zone;
2. Sleep zone;
3. Rest zone.

Recreation areas for boys are very individual. For some, this is a sport, then a sports corner with exercise equipment becomes a recreation area, for others - books, in this case a chair with a floor lamp is enough, for others - music, and then it is necessary to allocate space for a synthesizer and a powerful music center.

The sleeping area in the room of a teenage boy is never accentuated, it is purely functional. If the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe room is small, feel free to use beds on the second tier, for example, above the desk, or pulled out from under the podium or folded out of the closet.

The working area, as a rule, is designed both for studying and for doing what you love - modeling, reading, computer.

Color and light

Whatever style of interior you choose, there is always the opportunity to choose the right color scheme, consonant with the tastes and mood of a teenager. Bright colors energize, awaken enthusiasm, dark, deaf colors inspire calmness and confidence, light colors encourage mobility and a positive perception of reality.

Popular colors for guys and their combinations are blue, gray, deep blue, brown, green, purple. The contrast of black and white is a classic that allows you to make the interior of the room modern, stylish and brutal. Brown and orange, the color of the safari style, adds warmth and comfort, gray and lemon yellow - elegance. Aggressive red? Why not, in reasonable quantities. The main thing is that the room should not be dull.

An infinitely rich choice of colors is due to the fact that the design principles of a teenager's room are the same as in the "adult" interior.

Room lighting, in addition to its utilitarian purpose, can help in zoning a teenage boy's room. Local spot lighting by the bed, a floor lamp or a low chandelier by the chair, a high-quality lamp in the workplace - each zone will create its own atmosphere. And, of course, you need soft, diffused general lighting. Lamps always attract attention, they can be a stylish element of decor.

Natural light is essential, but blackout curtains or window blinds are essential for peace and privacy.

Flooring

Floor coverings of various types - parquet, laminate, linoleum or ceramic tiles - are selected in accordance with the chosen style. For example, marine style and looks good with dark wooden parquet. Safari is expressively complemented by natural-colored ceramic tiles - it is very fashionable, and high-tech - by ceramic tiles. porcelain stoneware. Constructivism easily gets along with linoleum. Hobbies must also be taken into account. If a teenager has weights and a bar in the room, ceramics and linoleum for flooring will not work, only wood or carpet.

Furniture

When choosing furniture, you should pay attention to storage systems. Shelving with small cells and drawers are preferable to cabinet shelves - they are easier to keep organized.

Ergonomics is the main thing in the workplace. Everything you need should be at hand. A sufficient number of shelves and drawers will save you from chaos.

Room design for two teenagers

If two teenagers live in the room, then the space should be divided equally. The boys are ambitious and vehemently defend their interests, so the division of the area must be approached carefully, on the basis of a common agreement.

If there is not enough space, the layout can be optimized:

1. Combine the sleeping area, usually in this case they use bunk beds;
2. Instead of two cabinets, use one, symmetrically divided into two;
3. Work areas should be placed close to each other, or use one rather long desktop instead of two;
4. Replace part of the racks with shelves;
5. Combine recreation area.

It is important that at the same time everyone should have their own inviolable territory, personal space, the boundaries of which are clearly defined. It is still desirable to design the room in the same style.

 Small room interior

If the room is designed not for two, but for one teenage boy, but it is too small, the issue of optimizing the layout is no less acute. It is necessary to determine which pieces of furniture can be combined in one area:

1. Table and shelves above it;
2. Folding bed and rack (wardrobe);
3. Compact sofa instead of a bed;
4. Roomy drawers under the bed;
5. Table and bed above it;
6. A workplace on the podium and a roll-out bed under it.

When choosing the design of a small room, pay attention to the avant-garde, constructivism, marine style, within their framework it is easy to implement the combination of zones and non-standard solutions.

Teenage room design from 12 to 18 years old

Adolescence is a short but intense period. The room of a 12-year-old boy and an 18-year-old boy cannot but differ, but they also have common features.

By the age of 12, a teenager already has a hobby, so in the design of a room, you can start from his hobby. The style of the room, the furniture, the color of the walls, the boy will choose with his parents.

14 years old is the age of searching for idols. There is no doubt that posters of a teenage boy's favorite band or football club will decorate the walls of the room, so you can wait a little while choosing expensive expressive wallpapers.

18-year-old boys, as a rule, have already decided on the choice of their life's work, have achieved success in their hobbies, and are well versed in modern design trends. At this age, teenagers themselves determine how they would like to see the interior of their room, and take an active part in the implementation of the project.

When decorating a teenage boy's room, an opportunity opens up to show imagination. Feel free to accept and develop creative ideas, get acquainted with the best examples of interior design. A stylish room for a young man is no longer just housing, but a zone of psychological comfort, a source of energy and a place of communication where friends willingly gather.
