Divide with colour in a shared kids' room
When kids share a room, it can be a great bonding experience with lots of life lessons along the way, like respect and ownership. These colourful tips help personalise a shared kids’ room so they can easily identify and appreciate whose is whose.


Walls painted with 2 or 3 colours can tie the room together while visually dividing it into parts for each kid. Furniture and textiles in your chosen shades highlight what belongs to whom. You can paint pieces, too, like we did with TROFAST storage. Like these tips? Check out the entire Square Metre Challenge shared kids’ room.
