What color is better for children's rooms? Should children's rooms be solid colors or multi-color?

We all know that when decorating a home, a children's room is usually arranged, especially for families with children. The design and decoration of a children's room is very particular, especially the color matching. Different colors will have different decoration effects. So what color is suitable for a children's room? Let's take a closer look!

What color is good for children's room

What color is suitable for a child's room? Whether it is suitable or not is up to the child to decide. Everyone has different feelings about color, and the user should be respected.

Look at gender

Boys generally prefer cool colors such as blue, green or neutral colors such as gray. They prefer geometric patterns such as plaids and stripes.

Girls generally like warm colors, such as red, yellow or white. They like floral patterns, soft textures, and lace-like decorations.

Look at age

Children between 0-6 and 7-13 have completely different perceptions of colors and patterns. The younger they are, the more they like to see bright colors, which is what we call highly saturated colors. Can you see any kindergarten that is not bright red, green, and purple?

As they grow older, their preference for colors will gradually become more elegant. Nowadays, children aged eight or nine to ten years old like low-saturation colors like Morandi, such as haze blue and dirty pink.

Look at social class

In addition, I think the preference for colors is closely related to the social class of the children.

Children of the same age, one in a big city and the other in the countryside, will definitely have different perceptions and preferences for colors.

Recommended color combinations for children's rooms

Children's rooms can use solid colors or multiple colors, but not too many colors, generally not more than three colors.

(1) Snow White and Pure Blue

White symbolizes purity, holiness, and reminiscent of moonlight and snow; blue gives people a mysterious and peaceful feeling, reminiscent of the sea, clear and quiet. Therefore, if you use a combination of blue and white in a child's room, it will make the child feel as if he is in the artistic conception of blue sky and white clouds, and feel comfortable and refreshed.

(2) Elegant yellow and bright orange

Yellow usually gives people a bright and brilliant feeling. It is a color full of hope. It is also a warm color. It is easy for children to feel the warmth in their hearts, as if emitting the brilliance of the sun. In addition, yellow represents the golden light, symbolizing harvest, and is also a proud color. The bright and lively orange will give children a fresh feeling. If the room is not large, this color configuration will have the visual effect of "expanding" the room.

(3) Apple green and cute stripes

Green is the color of nature, representing vitality and life, making people feel powerful and eliminating loneliness. If the children's room is dominated by green, it can not only protect the child's eyesight, but also help cultivate the child's love for nature, green plants and environmental protection.

(4) Dreamy pink and milky white

Pink is often seen as a feminine color because it represents cuteness and sweetness, innocence and tenderness, as well as romance and elegance. If you pair dreamy pink with creamy white, your child will feel warm and protected.
