Children's room design for children of different sexes -
We make the design of the children's room for children of different sexes
Every child needs a comfortable corner from childhood, but the fact that a brother and sister share one room for two also have their advantages. A boy and a girl learn to coexist in the same room, play together, share things, maintain order.
But the design of a children's room for heterosexual children is not an easy task. In one room it is necessary to allocate space for each of the child, to consider a harmonious, but individual design. Ideas for the design of a common room for two children of different sexes can be gleaned from photos of finished interiors.
Design options
- The first option is a gender-neutral interior design for a nursery for children of different sexes. As a color solution in this case, you should avoid the characteristic "female" and "male" shades: pink, lilac, blue, blue. Attractive in terms of boys and girls look white, beige, brown, gray, green, yellow and orange tones.
You can decorate the interior of a children's room for heterosexual children in a particular category, for example, jungle, fairy tales, the sea. The main thing is to consult in the process with the children themselves. Let brother and sister help you choose the option that suits them both.
Furniture design in such a common room should be universal. To save space, you can put a bunk bed. The son will surely enjoy climbing the upper tier, and his daughter will be able to comfortably sit on the lower crib with his dolls.
Textiles, in particular bedding, should be selected with neutral patterns — strip, polka, cage — or completely monotonous. You can dwell on prints that are suitable for both boys and girls - floral motifs (except flowers), fish, animals, birds.

- The second option is the selection in the interior for each of the children of a personal zone. If a girl dreams of living in a doll or fairy-tale house, and the boy likes cars, let everyone have his own space.
Beds should be placed in different parts of the room, and the walls should be arranged differently. For boyish and girlish zones, it is important to choose harmoniously matching colors, for example, pink and blue, and leave the common space in a neutral scale. It is important that children also take maximum part in creating the interior, especially their corners.
Let the guys help decorate the walls near their beds. You can hang there photos or children's drawings, the board for drawing with a marker or chalk will look original if the kids like to create.
Tip: decorative wall stickers are perfect for decorating walls and furniture in the children's room. They are easy to attach and remove, as the design of the nursery often has to be refreshed along with the changing interests of the children.
If the dimensions of the children's room allow you to divide the zones not only due to the finishing, light curtains or screens covering the beds and personal space are suitable for this purpose. For older children, you can zone a room using shelving or a closet. Variants of interior design for a child's boy and girl can be viewed on the photo.

Furniture arrangement
In the interior of the room for two children, the question of proper planning and space saving is particularly relevant. Separate cribs can be put in three ways: parallel along the long walls, across the room, in the shape of the letter G.
If the room is elongated and narrow in shape, the beds can be arranged along one wall one after another. But in this case, they should be separated by a bedside table or cabinet, a shelf, in order to preserve the feeling of personal space. This advice is relevant and when arranging the beds in the shape of the letter G. In addition, it is important that the children sleep with their heads to each other.

Although kids prefer to play on the floor, even the smallest will need a small table. Older boys and girls will need a place to prepare their homework and their hobbies. Everyone should have their own table or one common, but large, designed for two people, so that the brother and sister could be engaged at the same time. The main difficulty is to place both tables in such a way as to provide enough light.
