Ella & Otto: Shared Spaces

Having your own bedroom as a child is not always possible.
My children shared rooms and we kind of swopped a few times around with whom.
First the older boys shared their room and so did the younger ones until I had to take the youngest out as he was keeping my girl up most of the night...
Than the oldest boy got his own room and so did the girl, but middle boy and youngest boy liked the idea to continue to share and they did for quite a while. You get the idea...

As you see we needed different room constellations depending who shared with whom but that was never a problem as the room deco stayed unisex - it encouraged them to play, share and be tolerant of each other.

A great way to start out I think.
If you do care about how a shared room looks and like to get some ideas - just continue reading!
Great room ideas for two boys, two girls or even boy and girl!

If you like the idea of a partition - create it with a simple curtain - easy!

Emphasize it with girl’s and boy’s wall colors.

The right accessories can help shared rooms be Unisex in style

What we love most – as always – are the unusual details.
Look at the bunk beds - are they not fun?
Or the birdhouse bed heads?
Lying head to head under the same window to glare at stars and drift into sleep...
