If you think that in order to make a room for a child or at least design a zone, it’s enough to buy children's furniture and paste funny wallpapers, then you are deeply mistaken.
In fact, the design of a children's room is not an easy task, and a special approach is required here. Everything must be taken into account - the gender and age of the child, his temperament and preferences.
A nursery is a completely special world where a child spends almost all of his free time. And it is very important to make the child feel comfortable. And for this you need to choose the right color scheme, arrange the furniture so that it is convenient.
Do not forget about the interesting interior elements that develop the imagination of your baby. Creating the design of a children's room, you must know who will live in it - a boy or a girl. And use appropriate decoration techniques.
At first, a newborn baby does not need much: a crib, a changing table, a sconce or a floor lamp for lighting. Light can be softer - yellow, that is, closer to daylight. Choosing the type of lighting, you need to make sure that there are not too sharp differences, because it is not only annoying for the child, but also harmful to his eyes.
You also need to remember that the child is growing rapidly, therefore, creating the design of a children's room for a newborn, it is rational to buy furniture that would transform and could serve the baby for several years. For example, a changing table can later become a chest of drawers. Very comfortable modular furniture. The color of the furniture is also very important - too bright tones can irritate the baby. The best option, soothing, are light green and sky blue shades.
The color of the furniture should be in harmony with the color of the wallpaper. And there are two options. The first is a combination of soft colors, but the walls, floor and ceiling should be lighter than furniture, and the second is a combination of contrasting colors. In any case, there should be a feeling of warmth and coziness, that is, the design of the children's room should not put pressure on the fragile psyche and scare the baby. A child can be frightened by a too large drawing on the wallpaper. Plain walls are best suited for a newborn; a bright painting or toy is hung on them above the changing table and over the crib. This technique helps the baby learn how to concentrate on one subject faster.
Some inexperienced parents mistakenly believe that the design of the children's room should be too fun and colorful. This is far from the case. The nursery is for the baby both a living room, a bedroom and a playroom, while for schoolchildren it also serves as a place for classes. To combine all these qualities in the children's room, apply the method of functional zoning. That is, the room in which the baby will live is divided into a recreation area and a play area. The presence of a training zone distinguishes the design of a children's room for a teenager from a spatial solution for a baby's room.
Finishing a room for a child, you need to use materials that accumulate less dust. Therefore, the wallpaper should be smooth and even. Little children are very fond of painting on wallpaper, some parents, knowing this hobby, specially leave a free wall for painting, pasting washable wallpapers on it. Do not forget about the environment.
Now on sale are a new generation of finishing materials - cotton coatings. They are warm and completely harmless. The floor is best made from natural materials. A good solution would be laminate floors, which also meet all the requirements - they are warm and hygienic and no less beautiful than, say, parquet. For the children's room, you can use suspended ceilings, they are beautiful and absolutely do not collect dust. The ceiling can be a starry sky, light clouds or birds can fly over it. In a word, it all depends on your imagination and the needs of the child.
If parents feel that they cannot cope with the design of the children's room themselves, then it is better to turn to specialists, because the interior makes a strong impression on the child and affects the development of personality.
