Teenage bedroom ideas

As a teenager you often spend a lot more time in your bedroom than grown-ups do, since your bedroom is more like a livingroom than a place just for sleeping.

Function plus style make this teenage room a no.1 hit!

Like those records on the wall, this room is a hit that you’ll never get tired of. Thanks to smart storage there’s plenty of space to express your personality and display your interests.

A day bed serves its purpose day and night

A day bed is probably the smartest kind of bed, regardless of time of the day. Apart from the obvious advantage of being both a sofa and a bed, it also offers storage or an extra bed underneath.

Like a best friend, always standing tall

When it comes to flexible, maximised and adaptable storage, nothing beats the combination of a PAX wardrobe and KOMPLEMENT interior organisers.

Storage sets the stage for the stars of the room

It’s easy to think that the main purpose of storage is to store things, which makes sense. But the benefit of doing that, is that you clear off all the surfaces and shelves to display the things you actually want to show!

Making the desk a fun place to be

Desks are most often associated with work or studies, but they can be filled with so much more than that.

If you like the look of it – it’s fine art!

The ALFTA self-adhesive hooks let you express your personality without the need of tools, and without leaving any marks.

Most youth centres are only a few square meters

Flexible furniture and stackable or foldable extra chairs will make sure the room adapts to any circumstances.
