The most enjoyable phase of pregnancy, no doubt, is the time to plan the baby's room. It's when we have to think about all the details of decoration, comfort and practicality, and especially the optimization of space that will receive the new member of the family.gender.
The choice can have the most diverse reasons: the brother who will share the room with his sister, the parents who don't want to know the sex of the baby until the day of delivery, or because they simply want to escape gender standards such as pink and blue. But regardless of the reason, what matters is that a neutral room doesn't necessarily have to be dull, quite the contrary, it provides much morefreedom to play with colors, and bring style and personality to the bedroom.
This trend also significantly and indirectly influences the education of children, and is highly praised by educators, because it teaches children about colors and shapes in a way that is free of stereotypes.
Which colors to choose when decorating unisex baby rooms
For a clean and cozy room, warm colors should be used with caution, to bring joy and not too much information.
Another alternative is to adopt such warm colors in pastel shades, so as not to lose the delicacy that this type of environment usually needs to have. The most commonly used colors for genderless decoration are:
Gray
According to Feng Shui, gray is responsible for bringing balance and sobriety to the environment when used in decoration, besides being a very fashionable tone at the moment. The bedroom with gray walls becomes cozy, or modern when the color is used in the furniture.
Yellow
What could be more cheerful than yellow? Its significance in decorating is synonymous with optimism, happiness, and positivity, and it can easily be combined with other colors that offer the opposite feeling to create a balance, such as the tranquility of white or gray. When added through furniture or decorative objects, it creates a fun contrast with red and green.
Green
A vibrant, energetic color, green offers a sense of renewal. It is very reminiscent of nature, and is directly linked to growth and fertility. There are many different shades of green, and each one can offer various sensations, from joy to tranquility.
White
Super timeless, white is that color that goes with everything, and that you can create a thousand and one kinds of decorative styles, because you can't go wrong with it. Its lightness and elegance brings peace, tranquility, sobriety, and cleanliness. It is also responsible for giving balance to other color combinations.
Brown / Beige
There are those who believe that brown and beige do not add much to the decoration, but after seeing some inspiring results, this opinion will certainly be changed. We cannot say that they are vibrant colors, nor cold, but earthy, and because they are as neutral as white, they harmonize with almost everything.
White and black
It may seem like a somewhat heavy combination for a nursery, but when used with good humor and creativity, the end result is surprising. Tumblr and Scandinavian style decorations have these two colors as very strong characteristics and fill the room with personality.
Choosing furniture and accessories
Furniture is the main responsible for offering a specific style to the environment, and for the baby's room this would be no different. Let's see which types of furniture are the most used for a neutral bedroom:
Cribs
Cribs built in a straight line, or Montessori models are the most sought after. Parts that do not have stereotypical colors are also welcome, regardless of their shape.
Chests of drawers and cabinets
Models that harmonize well with the chosen decoration and, preferably, that do not have handles that refer to the baby's gender. Since they are durable pieces of furniture, the ideal is to choose a neutral piece of furniture, which can be used later when the little one is older.
Pillows
Use and abuse their fun shapes, such as the moon, clouds, cacti, and other forms - and if the idea is to add joy, bet on pieces with colorful prints.
Frames
Another way to give joy and personality to the children's environment is to bet on comics, with delicate and/or fun pictures, such as textures, animals, balloons, nature elements, and geometric shapes.
Hygiene kits
If it is very difficult to find a hygiene kit that is not pink or blue, go for a DIY. You can wrap a box, or choose a pretty tray, and add the items individually and according to your inspiration. Geometric shapes, polka dots, stripes, and plaid are some of the recommended prints.
Mobile
Instead of blue cars and little pink dolls or flowers, how about choosing a pattern of stars, moons, balloons, polka dots, clouds, and other shapes?
