Room Themes For Adults

John asks…

What type of bedroom theme should I get done?

I have a small room. I want a medieval dragon bedroom theme for an adult not a kids type. I have alot of dragon statues, 3 black dragon lamps , dragon dunar cover. I have looked at gothic types but I dont want a dark gothic theme I want a light coloured theme. Mum says red walls will look too hot in a room and dark gothic themes make my small room look smaller. Please help!

You can still do a Gothic theme even if your bedroom is small, just paint the walls a light color and keep the room simple:

*Get rid of unnecessary clutter. Clutter will make the room look smaller.

Hang a chandelier in your room, it will bring a dramatic look to the bedroom and would look great with the theme you are going for.

Try to add a large mirror, preferably a Victorian mirror to go with the whole Gothic theme as well. Mirrors reflect light and gives the illusion of another window, thus making the room look larger.

Or you could try a Japanese theme. Dragons are diverse legendary creatures in Japanese mythology and folklore. Japanese decorations typically use natural, neutral colors, which is great for a small bedroom. Also, natural colors help to create a simple background for other design elements to stand out as focal points, such as dragons. Here are some Japanese decor ideas:

How to decorate my Disney/Fairytale Theme Room?

Hi,
I wanted to redecorate my room and I just painted my walls a pastel pink color. I want a disney/ fairytale theme but nothing childish like disney princess picture or stickers on the walls. I was thinking of making lanterns from either Mulan or Tangled. I want the fairytale disney look without the actual pictures and stuff from the Disney line made for kids. I also cannot do murals. My furniture will most likely be a dark oak color. I also do not mind having disney books whether they be for teens, adults, or picture books Thanks in advance. Best answer will receive full points.

admin answers:

You could use small item such as models of disney idols like Mickey mouse placed on shelf's etc also using the lantern's(love the idea) books and material against a bamboo back drop on one wall which is used in the films this would give a theme to the room but with a more mature look

How can I decorate a family/ playroom in an Elegant circus theme?

I have found several vintage french circus posters as my inspiration but am looking for fabrics to pull it together. I need the room to be adult oriented (flat screen, antique card table, etc...) but am mainly needing it for my 4 year old daughter to use to play. Any suggestions on elegant circus fabrics?

i have a small sqaure room, with bright mint green walls. the colour is similar to - http://dallaspartytentandevent.com/images/products/mint_green.jpg - in that link. i guess it could be taken for cool or warm depending on ligthing and such. i much prefer warm tones. i have dark modern, angular chocolate brown furniture including a tall boy, queen sized bed, coffee table, makeup desk and and 2 bedsides <for my guitars and amps. the music i like is punk, heavy metal, screamo ect. btw im a girl. the fashion i like is much like taylor momsens and jenny of gossip girl season 2. i love interior design but i like modern french vintage sort of themes. lots of warm tones like red and coffee and cream. unfortunately im not allowed to repaint. and i dont like the idea of covering with posters as it looks tacky. i want ideas and color schemes if anyone could please suggest any? and i dont want it to look like a kids room, more like an adults or those modern pent house apartments or hotels haha.

Its a bit tricky to answer this but I'll try.

For wall inspiration why not try vintage frames & mirrors - something like this

you can also use different pieces of fabric and wallpapers to display in some frames while leaving others blank

Chocolate browns & creams & whites got brilliantly with the colour of your walls so your lucky there, your furniture sounds more modern than french vintage but you can always as small touches like vintage linen sheets, maybe a nice quilt ? Interesting lamps, vintage mirrors and frames (as suggested above)

I also like to use vintage teacups and saucers (mismatched) to keep my jewelry and little knickknacks.
I like to mix and match different fabrics textures and have lots of sparkly things like mini chandelier style lamps with velvet & lace! I'm a sucker for lace.

That's all I got for now.. Hope they give you some inspiration to work with & good luck
