Recolor Teen Boys Bedroom to Kick Off School

Written by faith | 2

My clients are busy organizing for the upcoming school year.   In my Seattle interior design practice I receive lots of requests for color ideas but not as often for teen boy bedrooms. In this post I have a color scheme for a teen boy and ideas to pull it all together.  This vibrant blue is a bold choice for a focal wall and the deep taupe on the side walls anchors and tones the warm rich chocolate.  I think a bounce of the Sundance yellow as a lamp, beanbag chair, frame or pillow will make his room have personality.  You can find suggestions and ideas like these in my newsletter. 

Or, gather up to 3  images and a question about your teen bedroom and for $50 get started on a Fast Solution. Are you ready?  Let’s do this!

With this color scheme in place I suggest bedcovering fabrics in a pinstripe combined with solids.  I found this oxford cloth sample  with wide and narrow stripes at Williams Sonoma Home . It adds an  easygoing style with the style  of casual men’s shirting.

Finally, to make this ‘teen’ and not staid, I found this  area rug to place diagonally and partially under the bed or where it isn’t fully exposed.

This is a busy pattern and exposing a portion rather than the entire rug pulls the color theme together.
