Shared bedroom between boys and girls is something very difficult, it is necessary to look beautiful and symmetrical, so the ideas common to the children's room boy and a girl needs a good think about how to bed and cupboards development and armoire, and we have to satisfy the taste of the children as much as possible

 

Some ideas for children's rooms boy and a girl:

- If the room is not square the corners, you can put the family in the corners

- Another solution is bunk bed, you can save a lot of space with bunk beds

- Bookcases have to be separated, including the freedom of the children

- Make space on both sides of each of them

- It is important to take the time to choose Alalon, we all know that boys like blue and girls in pink color, it must be capable of providing a solution to a nice common room cast, harmoniously two colors, for example, with some of their coordination and proper

- Choose the fantastic background fit boys and girls for example, next to the bed the girl butterflies and roses, and the boy next to Spider-Man bed or aircraft and other ideas

One way to go about this would be to use gender-neutral colors, shapes, items.. like greys, beiges, and whites for a more classical look, or yellows and greens for something more modern. This will give a feeling of unity. Another solution is to have the room visually divided into2 parts, colors or corners. This will give them a sense of individuality and privacy. I'm not a twin, but I imagine twings often get the feeling of not being2 separate individuals because to the outside world they are forever2 parts of a whole. So I would think let them each have what they like and design the room in accordance to the interests of each one of the twins. Good luck.

The bedroom is one man’s island, a place where you not only refill your batteries but also run away in your own world for relaxation. When talking about kids, running away in their world is even more important. In your case, the decoration concept has to sketch both your son’s and daughter’s personality, so, before you begin, make sure you put down a list of what they love and most importantly what they don’t, so that you will definitely know what to avoid.

Paint the walls in a neutral color, giving you the chance to personalize the room accordingly for both of them: one side designed for him, and the other designed for her. Do not hesitate to use their initials on the wall, above their beds or the portrait of their favorite cartoon characters. As relaxation area I would use a tent, because children love tents and so they could have a meeting point and a common ground for combining their games and passions. This tent can also be the special place for family gathering before a good night's sleep.

Moreover, if your kids aren’t too small to contribute, I would also consult them, because, believe me, they do know better how their wonderland looks like.

Having in mind the important highlights above, you can put yourself up to work.

Do remember, a balanced kids’ bedroom will consist of:

Ø  Sleeping area

Ø  Relaxation area – playground

Ø  Study area

 

Enjoy these moments with enthusiasm and do feel free to share the result! J

Childrens rooms should always be themed, colourful & fun. So forget the dull neutral colours & do a theme applicable to both genders. I recommend a "jungle" theme. Colours used for this theme are yellow & green - applicable2 both genders. Animal mural, tree tunk based chest/ottoman. This theme is wildly exciting, it incorporates colours & characters that are universal & the accessories are super fun!

In this case we should keep in mind that each one of them has his own personality. So we are going to create a personal space for each one of them . And use neuter colors like Gray. Grey seemed very suitable color for sleeping. In company of grey color we can play with many combinations and colors in the room. White bedding, black and white basket for storage, Ferm Living striped blanket and wall stickers .

bedrooms are supposed2 be the most private & comfortable place for any of us .. so designing a2 geneder bedroom must have alot of work  , thinking & talking with both boy and girl2 know how they think and what they want and feel about sharing the room together so that we can make an overview for what is   the most thing needed in designing this specific room ...

in my opinion we can design a partition that can seperate both beds off each other so every one can have his privacy while the other one is in the room if there is much space w can make this partition with book shelves so that every one can save his books or papers seperately of the other one off course we have to think about the storages for clothes 

if there is not much space w can go for designing2 beds over each other with a ladder  or a  specialy designed stairs that can be a book holder

after designing the room w must think about the colors2 satisfy both of the boy and the girl if the is a partition its going to be an easy task to adjust both of them by using a main color for all the room that can satisfy both of them like pale yellow or offwhite or greyish then adding a small amount of pink in the girl"s space and a blue or apple green color in the boy"s partition an use a carpet thet includes all those colors so its going to be a very satisfing and comfortable space for both of them
