Theme and color scheme for wall decoration in the children's room

Wall color directly influences your child's psycho-emotional well-being. Experts from the World Association of Child Psychologists recommend:

• Blue: ideal for active children – promotes concentration, reduces anxiety and helps with relaxation before bedtime.
• Green: calming, improves attention. Perfect for learning and play.
• Yellow: lifts the mood and stimulates mental activity. Use in moderation, as too much yellow can cause restlessness.
• Red: Energizing, increases focus and attention. Use red sparingly to avoid overstimulation.

Too monotonous? Combine several colors:

• Pastel neutral: light blue walls with white furniture or light gray with a delicate peach tone in the textile.
• Forest theme: green walls, natural wooden furniture and forest animal triptych as a children's room mural.

If your child can already distinguish colors, it is best to choose color concepts together

Motifs and style of wall decoration

When it comes to children’s posters and pictures, pay attention to:

Harmonious coordination with wall color and furniture – no aggressive contrasts.

Simple, fairytale style – clear shapes, no current cartoon heroes whose popularity changes quickly.

Our motifs are deliberately neutral – forest animals, hot air balloons, vehicles – and are suitable for both girls’ and boys’ rooms.

Summary - practical tips

Choose wall color carefully so that it has a positive effect and matches the furniture and textile design.

For children's room wall decoration, prefer simple, calm motifs in soft tones.

Check quality: Our real wood pictures are made with water-based paints, making them safe for children. For prints, it's best to request a quality certificate to avoid toxic varnishes and paints.

Avoid oversized formats in a child's room. A 30x60 cm triptych or a series of A3 posters are ideal to keep the room airy.

Glow-in-the-dark decoration: Glowing planets and stars provide soft night light and decorate the room at the same time.
