8 room ideas
of a young adult furniture for teenagers
For a teenager, his own room is more than just four walls. The furniture and accessories in it allow him or her to express him or herself and emphasise the emerging style. When decorating the interior, it is worth listening to the needs of the growing up occupant and together make the most important decisions concerning the appearance of the space. We suggest which bed, desk or wardrobe will work well for a teenager.
Our kids grow up fast. It is natural that at a certain point childish motifs and colours cease to be attractive to them and their rooms start to fulfil more and more important functions. They are a bedroom, a study area, a place to pursue their passions, meet up with friends or indulge in their favourite pastimes.
All of these needs should be taken into account when redesigning the interior so that the young person feels as comfortable and at ease as possible. Designing can be facilitated by a joint search for inspiration, which will help to choose a leitmotif for the arrangement.
8 INSPIRING ROOM IDEAS FOR A TEENAGER
Adolescence is a time when young people are increasingly aware of their needs. The emerging sense of autonomy and uniqueness makes them want to decide on many things themselves. Here are 8 ideas for a room for a teenager with functional furniture. Each of these arrangements can be a successful compromise between the requirements of the parents and the dreams of the occupant.
1. A PLACE FOR EVERYTHING IN A TIMELESS INTERIOR
In a teenager's room, it is advisable to use roomy furniture that provides a huge amount of storage space. In a space where chaos is not uncommon, lockable units are ideal to conceal minor disorder. Ideal wardrobes, chests of drawers and bookcases for teenagers can be obtained from the Creative system. This furniture will adapt not only to the needs, but also to the taste of the young person. Their layout and appearance can be designed by yourself, emphasising your style.
An interesting idea for a timeless décor is the combination of furniture fronts in a deep indigo colour with oak details. The interior will be brightened by white walls and a light-coloured floor, which will correspond coherently with the rest of the arrangement. For more cosiness and a stronger separation of the sleeping area, it is worth tempting to cover the wall next to the bed with soft Soform upholstered panels.
However, hiding all the little things in cupboards and drawers is not the only solution. If your teenager likes to surround himself with lots of things, it is worth providing a place to display them on top. Boxes and organisers will help to keep open shelves and bookcases in order.
A comfortable 4 You bed with a canopy will also be a good choice for your teenager, keeping dozens of items close at hand. The walls in an interior with a lot going on should be painted white to visually calm the space.
2. A COSY ROOM FOR A NATURE LOVER
A neutral space filled with soothing shades of beige and brown will appeal to young people who love nature. The tranquil arrangement will help you relax after a long day and allow you to change accessories frequently. In such an interior, living flowers and dried plant compositions in a vase or frame will be a successful decoration. Wooden flooring and furniture with an oak finish that can last for years will determine the character.
If the teenager's room is small, hanging shelves that do not take up valuable floor space can play an important role. When every centimetre is at a premium, choose multifunctional furniture. We are talking about a bed with a pull-out drawer, a desk which is also a comfortable dressing table for a teenager or a light pouffe with a large number of practical uses.
The pieces on high legs, such as those from the Nature Young collection, are visually lighter, so they do not visually overwhelm the interior, and also make cleaning easier.
A teenager's room furnished in neutral shades may also have a more modern face. Simply complement it with minimalist paintings and black window blinds, which bring a dynamic contrast to the décor. The youthful style will be accentuated by functional gadgets, such as a grey wall lamp with a handy shelf for small items.
The Young Users modular furniture also helps to create a modern arrangement with a natural feel. Front overlays with oak décor will become a striking accompaniment to green plants. The cabinetry can be customised to suit your needs by incorporating a pet cupboard or buying practical fillers for open spaces.
3. SIMPLE FURNITURE FOR COMPLEX TEENAGE NEEDS
When choosing furniture for a teenager, it is worth bearing in mind the rapid passage of time. It may not be long before your child moves out and the space will need to meet the needs of a student coming home at weekends. Thinking ahead, it's a good idea to opt for a versatile base such as Simple's simple and feature-rich furniture.
A sofa for teenagers can be fitted with a roomy drawer for bedding, and the bottom of the bed can hide extra bedding for unexpected guests. The independently configured pieces will be a great background for the other elements of the arrangement, which will emphasise the character of the room. In such a minimally furnished space, all the details - colourful textiles and ornaments - will make a perfect statement.
4. A HARMONIOUS RETREAT WITH PLENTY OF STORAGE SPACE
An earthy colour scheme is a good solution for years to come, and can be used in both a boy's and a girl's room. Calm colours on the walls, furniture and other furnishings allow the eyes to rest and facilitate concentration. The individual character of the room will be enhanced by accessories and elements which personalise the space. The open shelves of the capacious Stige bookcases will allow you to display your favourite books, boxes of trinkets or photos.
A teenager's room is often difficult to keep tidy. Therefore, it is worth introducing clever furniture which will facilitate its maintenance. Mobile pedestals present in Stige chests of drawers will help with this. They can be conveniently pulled out and placed in any part of the room, and when their contents are no longer needed, they can be easily put back in place.
5. FURNITURE THAT CHANGES WITH THE TEENAGER
Young people's interests are constantly evolving, as are their tastes. When furnishing a teenager's room, it is a good idea to choose solutions that enable its rapid metamorphosis. Furniture fronts can be just as easy to change as accessories. The Concept collection is proof of this, full of practical pieces with colourful accents. When blue or pink doors get boring, simply replace them with more versatile black or oak doors to give the interior a more grown-up feel.
An alternative to this system could be the Muve collection, designed with the changing needs of children and teenagers in mind. It features furniture that 'grows' with the user - for example, pull-out beds and height-adjustable desks that can be adapted to the child's height. This will ensure that the interior will be comfortable and ergonomic for years to come, without the need to frequently replace furnishings. The simple, timeless design of this furniture for teenagers will appeal to both boys and girls.
6. INSPIRATION FOR A TEENAGER'S ROOM WITH A DESK IN THE CENTRE
In a teenager's room, the desk often plays one of the main roles. The young occupant not only does his homework at it, but also indulges in his own passions. An original idea may be to place this piece of furniture in the middle of the room and adjust the rest of the arrangement to it. This will ensure plenty of freedom to use the desk and comfortable access to it from all sides.
A desk located in this way should be aesthetically finished both at the front and the back, as all its elements will be perfectly visible. A great choice would be a self-designed Creative desk in your favourite colour or a folding table, which will provide extra space for books and notes when needed.
A double-sided desk with integrated lighting can also be made the heart of a teenager's room. Make sure that your teenager lifts his or her head from the textbook and sees more than just empty space. Hanging shelves can be used for placing various teaching aids. The Nori organiser will make it easier to plan the week, and the Soform panels with elastic bands and hooks will serve as a collection of inspiration. A functional alternative is the Slot board with its dozens of openings, which allows the teenager to decide on the arrangement of shelves, containers and pockets for small items.
When choosing furniture for a teenager, it is worth paying a lot of attention to the desk chair as well. An ergonomically shaped swivel chair will work well, providing plenty of freedom of movement. There is also nothing stopping you from using a comfortable chair on wooden legs, like the Uni. An interchangeable backrest will allow you to refresh the style of the furniture each time you change the décor.
7. A COMFORTABLE ROOM FOR A TEENAGER WITH AN UPHOLSTERED BED
In a teenager's room, the bed is more than just a place to sleep. It often turns into a gaming zone, a small home cinema or a base for long conversations with friends. It is worth - even at the expense of other furniture - making space for a wide model with a large mattress that will provide comfort and convenience for the young adult.
A good choice for years will be an upholstered bed equipped with a high and soft headboard, which, in addition to its striking appearance, provides comfortable support for the back. Decorative cushions, warm blankets and bedspreads will make the furniture look beautiful and make the teenager's room cosier. A container hidden inside will serve to store seasonal clothing, relieving the strain on the wardrobe.
In smaller teenage rooms, an upholstered corner bed such as the Nook or Reli will work well. At night it will provide a comfortable night's sleep and during the day it will become the centre of daily rituals and activities.
8. TOTALLY YOUR OWN, OR TEENAGE ECLECTICISM
A teenager's room has its own rules. The rules are set by the young person, who is in the process of finding his or her own way. If he likes different solutions and interior styles, it is worth daring him to create his own personal mix.
The arrangement will be kept in check by using a common denominator. This can be a recurring colour in different furnishings, a selected group of materials or walls as a unifying background.
Most importantly, the space should appeal to the person who will use it on a daily basis. An eclectic design for a teenager's room can be inspired by a consistent range of shades, such as warm nude, energetic saffron or bottle green. The Creative system, offering a range of coordinating furniture bodies, fronts, legs and handles, will allow for bold experiments without fear of visual chaos.
Different patterns, shapes and textures can also be combined, keeping in mind the main rules of combining them. To make sure that the room décor really appeals to your teenager, you can test all your inspirations and ideas together with him or her on a realistic visualisation. The VOXBOX programme makes this possible.
