Laughing�crying�playing�fighting. A shared sibling bedroom is a beehive of�activity and needs. And that means there’s a lot for parents to tackle when�creating their kids� shared bedroom. With twice the amount (or more) of evolving�personalities and necessities, it�s often a daunting task for parents to�accommodate storage, space and the individual style of each child.

Designing a room for a brother and a sister doesn�t have to be challenging. In�fact, it�s probably the easiest challenge to overcome when planning a shared�room.

Your first step is to select an underlying color palette for the main elements of the�room (walls, rug, furniture) that is gender neutral�and, if they�re old enough to�chime in, that each sibling gives the thumbs up. Color combos such as white and�grey, turquoise and white or a mix of primary colors work well for both boys and�girls.

To complement your underlying palette, layer complementary colors and patterns�on top of that. For example in a grey and white room, try accenting with yellow�accessories. For patterns, lean towards stripes, chevron or solids with large�geometric shape(s).

When selecting furniture, opt for furniture with clean lines and that�s non-themed�(steer clear of the race car or sleeping beauty beds) and pair with neutral colored�essentials such as lamps and window treatments.

The exciting part of creating a super fun bedroom for your young brood is�accessorizing and customizing design elements to match their budding�personalities. Select design elements that make the room feel like it belongs to�both of them. Personalize accessories throughout the room such as wall art or�coat hooks. Marquee lights with their names or first initial add a pop of energy�and excitement to any space. Likewise, subtly add gender specific themes in one�or two accessories, but keep them color coordinated. For example when�accessorizing with red, try a throw pillow with a red fire engine for him, and a�pillow with a red flower�or heart for her. Storage that is complementary to the�design scheme but specific for each gender (think charcoal for boys and yellow�for girls) can also seamlessly pull a room together.

Sometimes its not just Jeremy and Sarah that you need to accommodate, but a�3-year-old Jeremy and a 4-month-old Sarah can definitely add another layer of�design anxiety.

The first thing to tackle is the furniture layout. If you have a baby, chances are�you�ll be in and out of the room at night to tend to the baby. If possible, place�their beds in opposite corners or walls with the crib being most accessible to the�door. Obviously structural elements such as windows and heaters can dictate�otherwise but your design objective is to give each child the most comfortable�night�s sleep without one waking the other.

Creating a play area that both siblings can enjoy, even simultaneously, is super�helpful, especially for tired mommies and daddies. Floor mats, cushions and soft�larger items like a rocking horse and tents are perfect to outline the area and fun�for both to play in. Place your older child�s toys in accessible storage containers,�but higher than the floor so your youngest can�t easily touch it.

For example,�whether it�s a bookshelf, storage cube or wall unit, place baby friendly toys and items on the lower shelves. Your toddler or older child can stand and reach for�the basket of Lego.

Incorporate elements that show your children their growing family. Photos of the�kids together, framed handprints of when they each were newborns encourage�them to appreciate their younger or older sibling while adding a warm family�atmosphere to their bedroom.

Finding the space in one room for twice as much furniture and storage is one of�the most daunting tasks when designing a shared room. This is where your�resourcefulness and editing eye need to kick into high gear. Less is definitely�more in a shared bedroom, as is multifunctional and shared design.

As a baseline, selecting streamlined furniture is essential to keep the room�feeling as spacious as possible and allow for storage and playing. If your kids are�old enough, bunk beds are always an excellent choice. Whether L-shaped or�vertical, a bunk bed is an efficient use of space and oftentimes has built-in�storage underneath.

Speaking of�under the bed storage such as rollaway drawers is always helpful�in creating more space and can hold seasonal or limited use items. Storage�chests with cushions can be used as a seat to a play table as well as conceal a�mountain of toys. A wall unit with drawers can pull double duty as a dresser and�desk.

Shelving is super convenient for toy organization as it doesn�t take up a lot of�space and can be placed above dressers, desks, even above the door for hardly�used items. Similarly, placing a bookshelf at the foot of the bed doesn�t take up�valuable wall space and may even give you another surface near the bed for a�lamp or nighttime book.

For clothing, wall and door hooks are helpful for every-day go-to items. In the�closet, install two rods (i.e. double hanging) so each child can have separate�hanging space.

Regardless of your design challenge, when creating a shared room for your little�ones if you stick to resourceful, efficient, fun and creative choices, you�ll no doubt�create a bedroom your kids will love!
