Tips and ideas for styling a teenage bedroom

Getting the style right is a big part of planning any teen room, as is making room for all activities with the comfort and flexibility you need. To get the functionality in place, start with the big items – like your bed and desk – and build from there with things that capture your personality.

Bringing your new look together

For decorations and other things to harmonise with the overall style of the room, try picking a main colour and a central theme – floral elements, for instance. From there, it’s easy adding some contrasts and a personal touch.

Organisation for your zones

Dividing your room into activity-based zones, you will probably find that the desk and your bed are two hotspots. So, it’s a good idea to support these zones with easy-reach storage – that can even help tie the two zones together.

The right set-up for you

An adjustable swivel chair, a mirror with the right lighting or some desk organisers for bits and bobs? Just let your most common activities lead the way and it’s easy finding out how best to support your daily doings.
