In this article we would like to focus on the theme of youth rooms. Teenagers are perhaps the most demanding people when it comes to the design and decoration of their personal space at home. Boys and girls naturally have different tastes and interests, so we are going to treat these two types of youth rooms separately with their respective peculiarities.
Youth rooms for girls
Youth room ideas for every style
We have some great teen bedroom ideas that are going to inspire you.
When it comes to teenage girls’ youth rooms, there is no one-size-fits-all solution. Each of the adolescents, as expected at their age, has their own style and in general they are not prone to follow the models imposed by their parents. And this is true both when it comes to your bedroom design ideas and your wardrobe.
And if you have more than one teenager living at home, chances are that their ideas about decorating their teen room are quite different. While one wants brightly colored walls, vintage / shabby-chic patterned or floral accessories, the other will prefer dark wall paint, bold prints, and rough-luxe design pieces. So if you’re wondering how to transition from girls’ rooms and princess bedrooms to teen rooms for teens who are always against it, we thought you might need a little decorating inspiration.
Encourage optimism with bright floral patterns
Energetic, fun, and feminine (without being too sweet), these teens’ bedroom is full of saturated color, meant to make your teen smile (even if she doesn’t want to show it to you). This space creates a rather adult feel, but is not too serious thanks to certain decorative embellishments that give it a whimsical finish: such as the curls on the chair and the funny prints on the wall. The storage bench at the end of the bed is also great for hiding clutter.
Set up a modern art exhibition in the youth bedroom
If you’ve spent time and money carefully creating two-tone paint effects for a child’s bedroom remodel like here, you probably won’t like your daughter taping posters directly to the wall. For this reason, try arranging the photo shelves at staggered heights on the wall above the bed and overlaying the framed prints and photos of your teen’s choice for a personal and artistic display. The images, and therefore the decoration of the space, can be updated as often as you like.
Create a design with depth for your teenager
Dark and moody decor can be achieved without turning a youth room into a bat cave. Paint the walls a smart dark gray and layer lighter shades of gray and whites, using different patterns to complete the picture and add an accent of another color for a bit of youthful energy. A hand-lettered print on the wall (in this case, a parental reminder, maybe!) Along with other ice-white accents, freshen up the design without taking away from the overall impact.
Retro Seventies Style
A retro 1970s background makes a striking statement in the youth room. Select the shades of the wallpaper and choose furniture and accessories in the same colors. Leaving these large pieces undecorated helps to break up the pattern and avoid an outdated finish. A white framed mirror and trendy black and white print from the same era adds a classic touch.
A Scandinavian-style loft room
Not all teens are lucky enough to have a large bedroom and it is not always easy to transition from a nursery to a teen space. This loft bedroom decorated in an attractive Scandinavian style makes the most of the available space with a raised bed built into the wall, with storage space underneath leaving the rest of the room free for your teenager’s wardrobe (ideally not in scattered around the newly freed floor). The white painted paneling keeps the bedroom feeling calm and enhances the overall impact while the colorful bedding can be used to add personality and style.
Bring a bit of boho flair to youth rooms
Give the canopy bed a bohemian update with a more laid-back approach that’s ideal for a teenage girl’s bedroom. White walls and dark wood furnishings provide a neutral foundation for ethnic-patterned blinds, bedding, and a makeshift canopy atop two hanging posts from the ceiling. A cool blue or purple base brings together the various patterns, while a bedside mint green reading lamp refreshes the eye.
A modern space to write homework
While homework is never considered fun, fashion-loving teens might like this bedroom with its stylish workspace. A slim console doubles as a desk or computer work, as well as a surface for displaying special trinkets. The floating shelves are painted the same color as the walls, so they appear to recede and create a spacious feel, which works perfectly with the striking graphic print rug and pops of hot pink.
Dreaming of a whimsical scheme
A bit of a Midsummer Night’s Dream, a bit folkloric, this nature-inspired bedroom has a soft feminine decor, even with its color palette of blue tones. Scattered bird and butterfly embroidered cushions give the space a touch of whimsy, while a see-through lavender canopy over the bed keeps the look light and airy. Accessories made from natural materials, such as the woven lampshade, cut through the blue to prevent the space from becoming too dreamy.
Make it monochromatic
Some girls only from the first moment that monochrome is the essence of the chic style. Other than the lack of color, there is nothing to spare in this room. The accent falls on the wonderful striped chest of drawers, ideal for storing a growing wardrobe and makeup collection!
Do Your Homework With Youth Bedroom Design
Just because a bedroom study space is essential for school or college activity, it doesn’t mean it should be boring. The corner of this bedroom has been transformed into a space you’d like to hang out in – it’s fit for a lifestyle blogger we think! Floating shelves contain stacked framed prints and photos, as well as pretty-looking pastel accessories that double as desk essentials. Marble-effect lighting and leathers add a touch of luxury to the slim table that doubles as a walk-in closet.
Mix and Match Colorful Craft Styles
Pom poms, polka dots, parchment, and crochet may sound too much to have all in one space, but they are treated well and these fun prints, patterns, and textures can create a bright bedroom for a teenage girl. Balance warm orange and yellow hues with pale blues and a few touches of white, if you don’t want it to feel overwhelming. However, it is an ideal space for your teenager to play with design options.
Tropical Style Youth Rooms
Warm, tropical colors will make your teen girl’s bedroom energetic. This could help the girl who lives in it get up faster in the morning. Pink hues and deep oranges blend beautifully, while citrus yellow accents such as bed frame and crisp white bedding cut through the red hues to add a fresh touch to the overall look.
Original Youth Room Storage
Order the growing collection of shoes and accessories, before it comes out of the closet, and store it on a colorful ladder shelf (you may need to paint a simple wood frame). Modern and practical – this is a no brainer.

Designing youth rooms is not an easy task for parents. They must give their children the creative freedom to express themselves that they need at this age, but there are also practical considerations that must be taken into account, such as study space and the cost of redecorating.
Whether it’s an inspiring study nook, a resting place, or storage options to organize even the messiest teens, we’ve got some great youth room ideas.

The Many Roles of Youth Rooms
For a teenager, their bedroom is like a fortress that protects them from the outside world. It is a place where you can go find a private space or hang out with your friends and siblings. It is also the place where you can begin to express your own identity separately from the rest of the family. This could be by putting up posters, displaying collections, choosing a striking designer duvet cover, or using your favorite colors on the walls.
That said, teen rooms should be practical too, especially if your teen needs to study for some tests, so good storage and a desk area are a huge plus if the room is big enough.
Addressing the Changing Tastes of Teens
When choosing a decorating scheme for a teenager’s room, keep in mind that the tastes of young people will change quite frequently, so it might be a good idea to go for a more neutral wall color and update the look with accessories instead of having to redecorate the entire space every couple of years. Of course, if you like to redecorate, or, better yet, if your teenager is happy to do it himself. – then let him be as adventurous with paint colors as he wants.
Let your teen express himself
Your teen would be delighted if you let him draw graffiti on the walls. It is the perfect way to express yourself during those difficult years in which the young man struggles to find his own identity, in addition to creating an irresistibly original look. While this decorating option may only be for more permissive parents, it does have its advantages. For example, it is much cheaper and easier to make than wallpaper and can easily be painted in a neutral shade when your teenager flies out of the nest.
Expressing style with accessories
If you’re not convinced by the idea of creativity on the walls, let your teen express his style through accessories. A statement quilt set is a great way to do this. It has an instant impact on a room and is quick and easy to change.
