Factors to consider
Before buying furniture in a boy’s room, first of all, several key points should be taken into account:
- the size of the room. Ideal option for a small nursery - transforming furniture or built-in furniture. For a large room, you can plan entire complexes with a play area and a two-level bed;
- the age of the child. As a rule, when arranging a nursery for a baby, designers recommend taking into account not only the playful present age, but also the future interests of the teenager. In this case, preference should be given to a more versatile design and furniture. Although, if desired, and financially possible, over time you can always radically change the situation;
- Interests and hobbies. This aspect is more likely to concern the design of a boy’s room at a more conscious age. The photo shows stunning vivid examples of arranging a children's room in the marine, automotive, sports, music and other topics.
- character. An important factor that significantly affects the choice. So, if the child is active, agile, energetic, it makes sense to purchase furniture with play and sports elements. Calm, assiduous, musical natures are more suited to a laconic version without frills.
What furniture to choose?
The furniture in the nursery should be mobile and ergonomic, so that at any time you can easily change the situation, expand the play area or even update the interior. For these purposes, multifunctional structures and transformers are bought that can turn from a working area into a berth and vice versa.
Materials and quality are the first things to look for when buying. The durability and strength of the furniture, as well as the safety of the owner of the room, depend on this. Read the quality certificates in advance in the store. Avoid models with sharp corners and remember to provide for cushioning systems. The most ecological type of furniture is models made of MDF or raw wood. Make sure that the furniture paint is water-based, and its coating does not contain toxic substances. All surfaces must be resistant to possible loads and easy to clean. The optimal mattress on the bed is orthopedic.
Vertical racks and cabinets with many shelves and drawers are very convenient and practical. So, every book, toy, souvenir can always be put in its place. Using modular furniture, you can expand the capabilities of the room that meet the needs of the child, while maintaining the integrity of the interior style.
If two boys live in the room, then the best option for a bed is a lifting vertical or bunk model. But it is better to refuse from cabinet furniture.
Note: furniture that is regulated by the growth of the child will help to save the budget. Often these are chairs, tables, sports complexes
In small rooms it is impossible to make a full zoning, in this case, transformable and removable furniture is selected.
Fascinating design of furniture in the boy’s nursery
As mentioned earlier, the main themes for the design of a nursery for boys are as follows:
- sea - with ships, pirates, islands;
- technical - with cars, trains, airplanes;
- sports - with developing sports complexes for the interior (with horizontal bars, rings, exercise machines, the Swedish wall);
- musical - reflects the musical taste of the child, creates a comfortable atmosphere for practicing your favorite hobby;
- cognitive - with maps, flags, globe; for curious researchers and schoolchildren.
If creative thematic design requires more funds for implementation, then the traditional classic with plain furniture is quite affordable. And not every parent wants to change the interior after a few years, when the child grows up.
In the universal concise design of the boy’s room, the optimal colors are blue, blue, brown, white, as well as any pastel shades. It is better to arrange the working area with brighter tones so that the child activates and tunes in to study. The place of rest should be separated by calm pastel colors. Such a range does not tire the eyes and favorably affects the psyche of the child.
The arrangement of the boy’s room at different ages
In the newborn’s room, the necessary furniture, except for the crib, is a changing table, playpen, chest of drawers. The play area here will occupy most of the space.
For a boy of preschool age, a lot of furniture is not required, and the work area will coincide with the play area. Cases and racks are intended for storage of toys and children's books.
The room for the student must be equipped with all the necessary functional areas. Therefore, the arrangement of a comfortable workplace, the installation of high vertical racks, removable partitions, a podium with drawers will help fit all the subjects for study. Of course, it is not worth cluttering the room - in addition to the working area and the place for rest, the room should have enough free space.
