Bedrooms for teenagers often do not fit their inhabitants’ rapidly changing tastes. Some teen bedrooms feature a hodgepodge of decor features from earlier themes, while others center around gadgets, sport equipment and hobbies. Streamline and stylize your teenager’s bedroom space by investing in classic, functional pieces that serve multiple purposes, such as tall bookshelves that act as dividers or loft beds that hold a work area and storage underneath. Then you can accessorize with bright colors, bold graphics, interesting textiles, DIY projects and artwork that personalize the room and establish a decor scheme.

Nursery decor has come a long way since pink and princesses for girls and blue stripes for boys. Decorate a baby’s room with basic, functional pieces that can make the transition from one decor scheme to the next, and then add textiles, art, accessories and finishes that give the space individual style. Thrift-store finds, vintage pieces and homemade projects give the nursery an eclectic look; however, follow the most up-to-date safety guidelines for key pieces such as the crib and changing table.
