Stylish and multi-functional children's room for two boys is a special place for children. Ideally, the room should be equipped in such a way that it meets all the hobbies of children.
When choosing a design for a children's room for two boys, you should first focus on their age. If for kids it can be equipped according to your own preferences, then for older boys it is better to listen to their wishes. Nevertheless, you do not need to completely trust the process of organizing space for children. It is necessary to build on not only stylistic preferences, but also take into account the financial component, the safety of materials and furniture.
Further in the article, several design options for the nursery for two boys will be considered in accordance with their age.
Two kids in one room: zoning space
The main task of designing a nursery for boys is the zoning of a separate and shared space for each child.
For young children, parents decide on their own what zones are required in the future children's room. Usually there are two main ones: bedroom and game.
With a slight difference in age, up to three years, it is appropriate to create common areas. A sleeping area, separated for each baby by a screen or a rack, will provide children with the opportunity to sleep in private, without interfering with each other. And the game zone can be equipped with a common, convenient for sharing time.
In the sleeping area, it is enough to arrange beds and personal dressers for personal belongings and clothes. In chests of drawers, things are easier to classify and find. It is convenient to stick stickers on the boxes with the inscription or interesting images of socks, pants, t-shirts - so the baby will quickly learn how to properly pack his own things. In a nursery, it is undesirable to install bunk beds if both babies are under 6 years old. With a lack of space, roll-out beds will come to the rescue when one is pulled out from under the second.
For the playing area, it is better to allocate more space, to place it near the window, where the most sunlight. The most necessary thing in the children's room is an unobstructed place for the children’s outdoor games. Carpeting is a practical solution, it is possible to tumble and sit on it, and lie down. In addition to the joint shelving, you can provide personal shelves or drawers - everyone has their favorite toys or books. This also needs to be considered.
A nursery for two boys should have complexes with sports equipment, bungee, horizontal bar and more.
Stylistic Solution
A room for babies can be designed for a specific stylistic decision. You can choose one of the proposed design options for the nursery for two boys:
- Marine subjects (ships, pirates).
- With cartoon characters or objects (robots or cars).
- Forest or jungle.
- Space theme.
If you follow a specific style, a nursery for two boys (there are photo solutions in the article) will look very interesting. Instead of subject design, it is possible to design a room in monochrome or polychrome shades, it is better to choose several colors. It is better if the colors are pastel shades (except for lilac and pink), or pure tones in combination with neutral and bright. The design of the room for the girl in pink shades is already considered a classic, so the boys are unlikely to want to have at least some hint of pink in their room.
Neutral shades include: white, sand, light gray. Pure bright colors include: green, blue, red, yellow. To soft include: any bright shade in combination with gray.
Of course, for the sleeping area it is better to choose soft and neutral shades - sand, green, gray-blue. The color of the play area depends on the character of the boys. If they are overly active, you should not choose (or minimize) the red and bright orange tones. If the boys are calm, you can safely use bright, vibrant colors.
Features of the design of the floor, walls and windows
Any parents want to give their children free rein for creative expression and are not afraid of the painted walls. There are several ways to solve such a problem without prejudice to a fresh repair.
- Paste the wall of the nursery for two boys in the play area with special wallpapers that are designed for painting. If desired, this can be arranged in the form of panels of the required height. Children will draw on them. If necessary, they can easily be exchanged for new wallpapers. And when the boys grow up a bit, they will need redevelopment, fresh repairs, then you can decorate the walls in a different, more modern style. The only thing you need to agree with the children in advance is that you can only draw on these walls so as not to find drawings near the bed, in the kitchen and other places not intended for children's creativity.
- For free expression and formation of creative opportunities for children, you can use special boards for drawing with chalk. This will also make the kids happy. You can purchase whiteboards with markers or felt-tip pens.
- Also a great option would be to paint the wall or part of the wall with slate paint. You can also draw on the wall with crayons. From below it is necessary to provide a design in which chalk will be showered when drawing.
It is better to choose a floor covering washable - good linoleum, laminate, parquet. When choosing a carpet, you need to pay attention to the substrate - it should not smell unpleasantly, and you should also choose a good quality vacuum cleaner. The window can be decorated with light curtains of the appropriate style, you should not choose bulky curtains that will make the interior heavier and collect a lot of dust. Roman curtains or blinds are perfect.
Security questions
All materials used must comply with safety standards. A children's room for two boys of different ages will ideally fit natural wood furniture, parquet flooring. For walls, it is better to choose wallpaper paper or for painting with non-toxic colors, cork materials.
Equipping a room for two active children, you need to carefully approach the selection and installation of furniture. Children's furniture for two boys should not have pointed corners, protruding fittings. They can cause injuries that should be avoided. Shelves and shelves must be fixed thoroughly: there is a risk that the boys will want to use them for other purposes. It is necessary to provide soft linings in the sports complex.
Children's room for two schoolchildren. Zoning space
For two boys, the nursery should have a working area for lessons and creative activities. And also for them it will be necessary to issue personal zones for everyone. The boys will spend part of their free time together, but for lessons and any hobbies they will want a separate specially equipped place. The sleeping area, with a lack of space, can be made joint, but it will be more convenient and fairer to make separate ones. Next, two types of zoning of the space of the children's room for two schoolchildren will be considered - the optimal and the compromise.
Optimal zoning:
- Separate sleeping areas.
- Separate work areas.
- Joint recreation area.
Out of space zoning:
- Joint sleeping area.
- Separate work areas.
- Joint recreation area.
With each planning, you should not forget about sports complexes, it will be optimal to place them in a joint zone.
The design of the sleeping area, in particular the choice of the type of bed, is due to the lack of space, since, in fact, the easiest way to save space on the sleeping area. The room must have at least two wardrobes and a bed. The bed should be chosen in accordance with the chosen stylistic solution, it is good if this frees up additional space.
Layout options
Several options for planning a room for children, depending on the type of beds, suitable for two boys of schoolchildren:
- If there is very little space, you can install mezzanine beds - two under the ceiling. They can have screens that provide isolation. The mezzanine beds are ideal for decoration in a nautical theme, in the style of the "jungle" (like a treehouse), in the space style (you can build large porthole windows instead of the bed side). Decorated in an unusual way, they make the room unique. With this decision, there will be enough space for the organization of the work area and recreation area.
- A two-level bed, with or without screens, makes it possible to create individual sleeping areas in a small area. Wardrobes for clothes and personal items in this case, it is desirable to arrange on both edges of the bed. A working area is drawn up at the window, the rest of the territory is a joint recreation area.
- Another alternative with a bunk bed. She puts the butt to the wall, dividing it into zones for two children. At the same time, they make the right blank wall at the first tier, and the left one at the top (or vice versa). With this arrangement of a two-level bed for two boys, the children's room will be divided into two well-secluded personal areas - one bedroom and one working one. The rest of the territory will be issued under a joint recreation area.
- Folding transformer beds. If the wardrobe-beds are placed against the wall, the layout will correspond to the first option. You can arrange such cabinets "wall to wall", dividing the room in two, like the third option. However, zoning remains the same.
- For two boys of school age in the children's room, you can use such an unusual type of beds as roll-out from under the podium. In the afternoon, they add up and free up space. The podium can be organized near the window - there will be two jobs. Or near the opposite wall, then on the podium there is a relaxation area - also a worthy option, giving expanse for design.
- Finally, a simple but very comfortable solution is two ordinary beds. A large nursery can simply be divided in two, and each of the guys will decide on their own where to put the bed and where to organize the workplace. If the children's room for two boys (photo attached) is spacious enough, there will also be a lot of space for the recreation area. To highlight the boundaries of the zones, not very large racks, sports complexes are suitable. And you can arrange a joint recreation area in the middle.
Stylistic design
When arranging a room, one should take into account the preferences and wishes of the children. Interior design with cartoon characters for schoolchildren is no longer suitable, they will quickly get tired of such a design. It is better to choose for two boys the design of a children's room of such a plan: ·
- Marine subjects (ships, pirates).
- Forest or jungle.
- Space theme.
- Sport games.
- Travels.
Unlike the room for babies, the nursery for boys and schoolchildren does not use gentle pastel shades. It is allowed, along with other colors, to use gray, brown, black - if this fits into the chosen style.
Floor and wall decoration
Wallpaper for drawing is no longer relevant, but a board for chalk or felt-tip pens will be appropriate. The slate wall will continue to be relevant. The flooring must be anti-slip, strong and easy to clean and wash.
Security
For two boys, the nursery should contain solid furniture. If it is made on the basis of chipboard, it must be fixed with wooden beams. The most durable furniture is made of wood or metal. Rounded corners and accessories will protect from unnecessary injuries and wounds during active pastime. All materials and furniture must be safe. Shelving and shelves must be properly fixed to prevent personal injury.
Features of a nursery for two boys of different ages
If children aged have a big difference, especially if the younger brother is a preschooler and the older one is already a teenager, it makes sense to divide the space into two zones. Boys of different ages have very different needs, so a single room will infringe on the interests of children to one degree or another. In order for each of them to have a secluded place, it is possible to separate two zones in a nursery for two boys with a low closet or shelf. Since the activity of the youngest child cannot be completely controlled, it is necessary to provide for closed cabinets or high hanging shelves for storing especially significant, fragile or unsafe things. The area of the elder brother should be larger in area.
Roll-out beds can be purchased from under the podium. This option perfectly saves space in the daytime when they are collected.
If both brothers are schoolchildren, the significant difference in age will not particularly affect the basic principles of zoning. In the children's room for two boys of different ages, individual sleeping and working areas can be decorated in a variety of stylistic and color schemes.
Conclusion
To equip a nursery for two boys is not an easy task. It is very important that children take an active part in creating their room. Be sure to take them to furniture and construction stores, give various tasks feasible for them. Only in this way can you make an excellent children's room in which it will be cozy, beautiful, interesting and safe.
