Children's room in white: combinations, choice of style, decoration, furniture and decor

Interior Design Features

Why is white color for decorating a nursery a great solution?

• It is universal - suitable for both a boy and a girl, as well as combined with any other shades.
• It has a positive effect on the child, developing creativity, giving a feeling of cleanliness, freedom and freshness.
• With good daylight, you should choose a cold shade of white with a bluish tint, and with a lack of sunlight - warm (ivory, creamy).
• White erases the borders of the room, and if you equip the interior with spotlights, the space will appear wider, which is appropriate in small rooms.

Color combinations

Consider some successful combinations of white with other shades.

White-brown children’s room looks comfortable and comfortable, natural textures with green elements give the interior natural warmth. Dark tones (black, gray) are more suitable for a teenager. For example, the white-gray room looks stylish and concise, and if you wish, you can add any bright accents to the decor - orange pillows, a blue carpet, etc.

White in combination with yellow will give the interior cheerfulness and muffle its activity. If a child wants a red room, it is better to simply add rich details (carpets, rugs, curtains on windows) so that the bright color does not tire. If desired, they can be changed.

The white room in combination with purple looks original, but there shouldn’t be too much of such an active color.

Finish options

The most common way to decorate walls in a white room is paint. When buying it, you need to clarify whether the composition is suitable for a children's interior. Before painting, you need to smooth the walls with putty, primer the surface and apply the composition in one or two layers. Snow-white walls are diluted with wide or narrow stripes, helping to visually expand or extend the room.

Wallpaper is another budget option. They often have a small pattern that enlivens the monotonous atmosphere. These methods can be combined: create accent walls, add lining or gypsum tiles under a brick. It is desirable that all materials are natural, including flooring.

Both laminate and linoleum for children should have a certificate of material safety. In addition to wooden coatings, a carpet can be used in the room for the child. If there is an ornament on the walls, the floor covering should be monophonic so as not to overload the interior.

The ceiling in the children's room does not always remain traditional: to decorate it, paint of saturated colors, murals, stickers and even wallpaper are used. In this case, it is recommended to make the floor light in order to balance the color palette of the room.

Furniture and decor

The white children's room is not only walls, but also furniture, as well as all kinds of decorative details.

The white chest of drawers needed to store toys or clothes fits perfectly into a bright environment, as if dissolving in it. The same goes for bulky cabinets. If the room is small, it is worth placing the storage system around the door: this design saves space and adds coziness by hiding the door.

It is recommended to buy a table for growth. Today for children there is a special transformer furniture that "grows" with the child. The color scheme for furniture can be either restrained or contrasting.

In the spacious nursery, in addition to the bed, you should put a sofa, which is useful for games, recreation and reception of young guests.

The bed in the room is the main element, it is worth choosing it with special care. The child will appreciate if an unusual appearance appears in his bedroom: an attic bed, a podium or a bed in the form of a house. There are also children's sofas with orthopedic mattresses, which can play the role of a bed.

Open shelves and shelving - an indispensable element in the nursery. Psychologists recommend placing part of the books and toys in full view so that the child can always reach the desired object. Such structures take up a lot of space, so in a white room it is preferable to put a rack in the same color as the walls.

Both furniture and textiles should not cause dissonance in a white room. Do not use more than three shades in the decor. The type and color of textiles depends on what image you want to create for the nursery.

Light curtains, light lace pillows, soft carpets are more suitable for girls, and boys will appreciate blinds, Roman curtains, colored carpets with short nap. However, in the end, the situation depends on the nature of the child.

Design ideas

Children's room is perhaps the best place in the apartment to implement their creative ideas. And since white color acts as an excellent background for non-standard furniture and decor, you can not limit your imagination.

Not everyone will decide on a brick wall in a children's room, but how stylish she looks, adding a touch of texture! You can use both finished gypsum tiles and natural brick from masonry - both materials are environmentally friendly and safe.

You can beat the walls of the white room in simpler ways: stickers, posters, photographs in frames, geometric patterns. Homemade balloons, clouds, clusters of paper lanterns, toy airplanes will magically look under the ceiling.

To draw on the wall, you can hang a roll of unnecessary wallpaper or paint the space with chalk paint. Cork boards are also popular, on which children's creations are easy to place. In the attic nursery, canopies and swings suspended from the ceiling are appropriate. And, of course, any child will be delighted with the second floor, especially if the ceiling height allows him to equip.

What style is better to design?

It is unlikely that the child will appreciate the conformity to any style in his room: the most important thing is that he is comfortable and safe in this room.

Provence is perfect for romantic girls. A wrought-iron bed, floral textiles and antique furniture blend perfectly with the French look.

Modern style is the most win-win option. It combines beauty and conciseness, and most importantly, functionality, which is very important for a children's bedroom and a playroom.

In the photo, floral wallpaper echoes with a print on textiles, and pink perfectly harmonizes with mint and turquoise color.

The classic style is difficult to recreate in a room for a primary school child: toys, bright books and a sports corner are difficult to fit into an elegant, sophisticated setting.Classicism and neoclassic are appropriate in a room for a newborn, where parents maintain order, or for a teenager who can appreciate and preserve the nobility of the interior.

The Scandinavian style is most popular for rooms in white shades, because this is the main color of the Scandi direction. In such nurseries, most of the materials used are natural: wood floors, cotton and linen textiles, toys with a minimum plastic content. The atmosphere is light and muted range.

Another interesting solution is to design a nursery in a marine or eco-style. In urban life, children often lack communication with nature, and a design with wooden elements, images of the animal and plant world will partially fill this shortage.

The loft style at first glance may seem inappropriate in the children's room, but in fact, this is an excellent background for the implementation of all kinds of creative ideas. The roughness of the textures is shown here minimally, and the feeling of spaciousness is achieved through mirrors and glossy surfaces.
