Teenage boys bedroom

A bedroom designed for a young man in house school who wanted something a little more mature but reflected his love for skate boarding and his branded clothing. A gallery wall was created made up of images of skaters from around the world taken from a book I found. We wanted to use a warm but neutral colour that was 'beyond trend' so to see him through a good few years ahead but a colour that was grown up and sophisticated so I chose Pale Oak from Craig & Rose paints. Then added a Faux wood cladding wallpaper to the opposite wall to break up the colour and to add interest. Along with this a feature map wall sticker was added to give that nod to what you might find in a growing boys bedroom! A simple black roman blind was added to eliminate fuss and kept the window looking neat and tidy with clean lines. The pendant choice was a simple black cage shade which throws out great shadows when the lights are on and night draws in. The soft light from the string lights sources form Home Sense add a warmness to the room for the dark and colder nights.
