I am possibly getting my room re-done this summer (for my birthday) and was wanting something modern but cool. I already have a few ideas in my head, but the thing is, I don't want to be costing my mum and dad a heap! I will also be contributing money to the furniture and things, so they won't be paying for everything, but it would be really good if I could get everything at a reasonable price. My ideas were:
-A double bed with storage. (This one isn't really an idea because I do need a new bed.)
-A ball chair. (They are cool and look comfortable! They are quite expensive though..)
-A wall sticker of Freddie Mercury or any inspiring quotes or song lyrics.
-Some kind of wardrobe that isn't too chunky and is not wooden.
-A whiteboard or something? Anything that I can kind of use to put on reminders and photos, etc.
-A funky bedside lamp.
I would like to have a completely new room from what I have right now, which is all girly. I feel like I need a more grown-up room, but still one that isn't too old for me and is modern. I am obsessed with the band Queen so any Queen related products that I could put in my new room would be a bonus!
Also, I am sorry if I have come across as picky and fussy and spoilt, but I just want to make sure that my room ends up perfect, and I really need help finding websites and stores in the UK to buy these things for my room. Plus, I have saved up since my last birthday to get money for the room and am still saving at the moment.
Any help would be appreciated. Links are good as well. Thanks :)
Oh, and the colour theme would probably be black and another colour, but I still need to decide on the other colour.
Answer
Designing a room is really fun. If you want a grown up look, go for neutral colors. You said you like black, which is a start. I recommend coffee house colors, like chocolate browns or off-white. You can keep it youthful by adding stylish decoration such as framed posters, plants and draped cloths over your furniture to add a splash of color. I myself an a fan of reds and purples. A white board could be a good idea as long as it doesn't become cluttered with notes. If you want to stay organized, I recommend a planner or a decorative notepad. A few throw pillows are nice, but don't cover your bed in them like some girls do. A nightstand is a good idea, not just for a lamp but it's a good place to store things. I have a friend who loves interior design and goes to places like thrift stores for some things if saving money is your thing. You'd be surprised how much a new paint job can change the look of a bookshelf or jewelry box. (Don't buy something that smells bad. You want your room to be comforting, not worrisome.) The important thing is that you get the most out of your space. Arrange everything in a way that is convenient and easy to clean up. Mirrors are another way to open it up to add the illusion of more space. I would also recommend looking into getting a desk. Homework goes a lot more smoothly when you have an area that has everything you need.

Teen girl designs for bedrooms?
c
I am 13 and sort of girly
I like really modern stuff and unique
I like purple, pink, black, gray and other colors but orange
Could you post some links for cute room ideas?
Or just describe them?
Oh and by the way..
My room is HUGE!
Answer
Wow. We're really similar. I'm thirteen, sort of girly, I like modern and unique stuff and don't like orange. :)
I know rooms look a lot bigger with lighter colors, and smaller with darker colors.
http://www.pbteen.com/ is a cool site to check out.
Circle beds are cool. So is having a bed in the wall. Literally.
Check out http://furniture-for-small-spaces.com/launch/how-to-make-a-bed-in-a-wall.html so you know what I mean.
This link: http://momoge.com/cool-bedroom-decorating-ideas-from-evinco/ has a lot of cool modern rooms.
It'd be cool to have a solid color for a wall, then have a tree painted onto the wall the same color, but either darker or lighter than the solid wall color.
Hope this helps a little.
