All parents want their children to be happy.And so that not only their childhood but also their adult years are happy. Naturally, they try to raise their children in the right “key”: developing femininity in girls and masculinity in boys. And if everything is more or less clear with girls, then with boys it is not so clear. For example, how to cultivate a masculine character in a boy, develop endurance, willpower and other attributes of masculinity and at the same time not force him to endure any hardships and create comfortable living conditions. By the way, psychologists believe that in shaping the character of a boy (and a girl too), not only the right methods and personal example are important, but also the space surrounding the child. From this point of view, the design of a children's room in general and for a boy in particular becomes one of the significant moments in the formation of the child's personality. What design to choose for a teenage boy's room? How to decorate the interior of a junior schoolchild's room? And what design of the interior of a children's room to choose if the baby still goes to a nursery? Let's try to figure it all out.

Baby features for boy

In many ways, the design of a children's room for boysand girls is similar. For example, in both cases, the technique of zoning the room is relevant, when the interior of the room is divided into functional zones-territories: for sleeping, for studying and for rest (games). It is believed that the design of the nursery should take into account the individual characteristics of children. The requirements for the interior design in terms of room lighting are also universal, in which both the main source of lighting and lamps in individual functional zones should be located. But the design of a children's room for a boy still has its own characteristic features. After all, a man's character is very different from the subtle mental organization of a woman. Both psychologists and designers put forward such a requirement as laconicism (nothing superfluous) and restraint (nothing pretentious). Secondly, the choice of a design concept should directly depend on the age of the child: different ages - different needs. Thirdly, clear functionality is very important: men are not inclined to territorially combine different spheres of their activity. And, of course, already in childhood, any man is guided by the motto "my territory - my rules". Therefore, it is very important to take into account the wishes of the child, his interests and hobbies, when developing the interior design of a room for a boy. It is the latter factor that becomes decisive when choosing a design concept. That is why the interior of a room for a boy is most often designed not in a stylistic key, but in a thematic one. And the peculiarities of the male psyche in combination with the child's determine the correct color scheme of the interior. Let's start, perhaps, with color.

Room color for a boy

When choosing a color scheme for a boy's room,Consider his age and temperament. If the future owner of the room is still very small and is in the tender infant age, then psychologists advise decorating the interior of the children's room in rich bright colors. Large drawings and geometric shapes will also be appropriate. A growing boy, who cannot yet decide on his own color preferences, completely trusts his parents. Therefore, it is important to take into account the advice of a psychologist when choosing the color of a room for a child of this age. Namely:

All the shades of blue are relaxing and contribute to the development of creative inclinations.

White color is neutral and can be an excellent background for bright colored furniture and interior items.

Yellow color is appropriate in the zone of games, since it is considered the color of curiosity.

Green color removes irritation, increases efficiency and has a good effect on eyesight.

Orange color promotes the appearance of joyful feelings and confidence, but in excess this color is able to act depressingly.

Contraindicated (from the point of view of psychologists) for the interior of the children's room red and purple. The first develops aggression, the second apathy.

And a few more tips:

For quiet children it is desirable to choose bright and expressive colors and patterns.

Interior design for an active and mobile child should be addressed in a mature gamut with a minimum variety of colors.

For a room located on the shady side, you need to choose warm shades and light colors.

Excessively lit children can be "muffled" by decorating the interior with cool shades.

And, most importantly - to focus on the age and temperament of the boy.

Themed design of a children's room for a boy

A themed design for a child's room will help satisfy children's ambitions and, to some extent, realize boys' fantasies. What themes are especially popular with boys?

• Marine theme

The marine theme has always excited the boyishimagination. Pirates and caravels, military submarines and fearless scuba divers, the underwater world and seafaring life - this is what will make any boy feel like a real man: brave and strong, noble and honest. Any "marine" colors will do for the color scheme of the interior of such a room: light blue, blue, azure, turquoise. It is necessary to use the texture and color of natural wood and, of course, any marine attributes: steering wheels, anchors, compasses, pirate flags, sails, portholes.

• Theme of travel

Very close to both the marine and environmental themestheme. The interior of a young traveler's room can be decorated in different styles and different "sub-themes" can be chosen, ranging from sea travel to safari. The color scheme is light shades, beige and sand colors in combination with blue and green, brown and white. Accessories are maps and globes, ship models, trophies from hikes, photographs of different continents and countries. True, the themes of travel and the sea are more suitable for a preschooler's or primary school student's room. However, many teenagers will not refuse such interior design of their room.

• Sports subjects

You can decorate your interior in a sports themea young athlete or a passionate fan. Here, too, various options are possible depending on what kind of sport the child is involved in. Football and hockey, boxing and artistic gymnastics, skiing and swimming, car racing and weightlifting - all of this can become a certain theme for the design of a boy's room. The main colors of such a room should be white, green and red. But everything depends on the specific sport and the colors of the favorite team. The attributes should also be sports-related, starting from a sports corner or equipment and ending with the child's own diplomas and medals and posters with photographs of sports idols.

• Japanese theme

The interior is decorated in a Japanese theme,It is perfect for both boys with a philosophical outlook and samurai boys. The stylistic solution for such a room is minimalism. Calm, discreet colors (white, silver-gray, lemon-yellow, beige) and light, miniature furniture are preferable. The main thematic accessories are hieroglyphs, mats, bamboo curtains, samurai swords, Japanese vases and fans. Other decor is also acceptable: a rock garden, bonsai, images of Japanese landscapes.

• Theme of technology

Almost all boys are interested in technology.Boys are not indifferent to cars and planes, trains and tanks, rockets and ships. There are no recommendations for the main colors of the interior of such a room - they can be any. The main thing here is attributes and thematic accessories. But the stylistic solution for such an interior suggests itself - high-tech or military. And, accordingly, in this case it is necessary to create a design and decorate the interior in accordance with the requirements of these styles.

Tips for parents

Whatever the style or theme for your roomNo matter how you choose a child, no matter how you decorate the interior, be guided by two important rules. Firstly, the children's room should be environmentally friendly and safe, so give preference to natural finishing materials, avoid heavy or unstable furniture, try not to install open electrical wiring and install child-proof electrical outlets. And the boy's room should be easy to clean. If this is not relevant for a very young inhabitant, then teenagers should be able to clean their room very quickly. If the nursery is cluttered, then even the greatest neat freak will not be able to maintain order in it. And try not to violate the territorial possessions of its inhabitant once again. Even little men consider their territory inviolable, and the rules in force on it inviolable. Come up with the design of the future room together: it is very important for your boy to take part in the planning and decoration of his room. In general, it is important for a boy not only to have his own opinion, but to consider this opinion authoritative. And who, if not parents, can teach him not only to express his point of view, but also to be able to defend it, in a word, to be a real man. We recommend reading:
