8 ideas for a children’s common room

I have always stated that in the area of home decor, children’s bedrooms need special care. They are often the rooms where we put the most excitement, sometimes even before our little one arrives.

Sharing a room can be a tough task in every way: the space is divided, and the needs are doubled. Furthermore, it involves blending the preferences of two or more people into ONE space. How can we make sure that it is, above all, a lovely area?

That is why in this article you will discover the most attractive shared rooms found in the blogosphere. No matter if you are searching for ideas for girls, boys, or a shared room, I hope these pictures inspire you and show what is possible to create a beautiful, practical, and shared space.

8 ideas for a children’s common room

I have always thought that in the realm of interiors, children’s bedrooms deserve special attention. Usually, it is the room we decorate with the most joy, sometimes even before our little one arrives. On the blog, I have a whole section just for them, but it just struck me that I have never written a post about shared rooms!!! (Now that I think of it, it makes sense since we only have one child at home, ha!).

Sharing a space is quite a challenge: you are combining items but have double the needs. Not only that, you must reflect the likes of two (or more) people in ONE area. And then, naturally, you want it to look great. That is why today I am presenting the sweetest children’s rooms found in the blogosphere. Whether for girls, boys, or a mix, I hope these images assist you in finding the inspiration you seek for your home. Have fun!!!

Girls’ dormitory

Speaking of worlds, the world of girls. What beautiful things!!! Far from spaces full of pink, or traditional colors for little girls, I like the idea of ​​a neutral and bright space where notes of color stand out. This goes for both girls and boys, but it’s especially important in shared rooms, as it helps keep the space from feeling cluttered.

I was lucky enough to find two versions of this bedroom which is personally my favorite with that wallpaper on the sloping ceiling… here you can see it with the black and white checks instead of the colored ones and wow, I love it too (in fact I think that’s a plus)! !!

Speaking of worlds, the world of girls. So many cute things!!!! Away from pink-filled rooms, I like the idea of ​​having a neutral space where the color pops. This works for both girls and boys, but it’s especially important in shared rooms, as it helps keep the space airy and not feel too stuffy.

I was lucky enough to find two different versions of this bedroom which, by the way, is my favorite with that wallpaper on the ceiling… here it is with black and white frames instead of color, and oh, I love it (I think I love it even more!)

Little freedom

Furthermore, I was lucky enough to discover that this beautiful room is already for THREE and not for two girls, so below you can see how it has been “expanded” without losing the style.

I was also lucky enough to find that this cute room now houses THREE, not two girls, so you can see how it has “grown” without losing the style.

Boys’ dormitory

As I said, for this selection I wanted to stay away from typical children’s bedrooms, those with very strong colors or very strong themes. And it’s not that I don’t like them, but I always prefer those more timeless spaces, in this case, that can grow together with children (if you’re thinking of investing in something, it lasts for many years, right? ?). Again, we can see neutral spaces, where color or a certain theme.

Shared bedroom for girl and boy

Perhaps the biggest challenge in children’s bedrooms occurs when a boy and a girl share them. But don’t worry, if we follow the idea of ​​making it neutral, and giving notes of color and personality through details and accessories, as we can see, things become easier.

Neutral shared rooms

Very similar to the previous case, but not quite, here I wanted to include two examples of spaces that have been designed in a neutral way, i.e. neither for boys nor for girls, and they are beautiful. In both cases they are an extra room in the grandparents’ house, so they were designed without a specific child, but rather for any of the visiting grandchildren… what a great idea, right? The best thing is that they live in small spaces and make the most of them, which is always very inspiring!

As in the boys and girls category, this time too I wanted to share neutral spaces, and they are beautiful. In both cases it is an extra room in the grandparents’ house, so the rooms were designed without a specific child in mind, but rather for all the grandchildren… nice idea, right? The best thing is that they are actually quite small rooms, so they are really inspired!!!

Taking advantage of this last bedroom, here is a great combination that works perfectly for both boys and girls: white, grey, turquoise (or aqua), dark blue and coral (or pink). Playing with the quantities of these colors can generate many possibilities: if we use white as a background, it is light and bright, but we can also do the opposite, using navy blue as a background, giving life to dark walls that are always beautiful and dramatic.

Or we can use gray as a background, leaving a serene, Nordic or Scandinavian-inspired space. Turquoise gives that cheerful touch (if we leave only the grey, navy blue and white can be too serious) and pink, the feminine touch (if we have a children’s room, we leave the coral, and that’s it ;).

Whether they are different colors to a greater or lesser extent, this combination is ALWAYS a winner.

And here it is, the perfect palette for both boys and girls: white, grey, turquoise (or teal), navy blue and coral (or pink).

Play with the amount of these colors for all sorts of possibilities: use a white wallpaper for a light and airy room or try navy blue for dark walls, always gorgeous. Or go for the greys, for a serene, Scandi-inspired bedroom. Turquoise gives that cheerful touch (using grey, navy blue and white might seem too serious) and pink for the feminine touch (if it’s a boy’s room, use coral instead ;). It works every time.
