Creating a perfect bedroom space doesn't have to be a difficult task if you have a son. The difficult task is figuring out where to start. If you've already browsed Pinterest and scrolled through catalogs and interior design magazines for inspiration, we suggest taking a good hard look at a few considerations. Keep these things in mind — the perfect boy's bedroom should be inviting, comfortable, and above all, showcase your child's interests, whether they are into science, sports, or something else.

House Beautiful said it's essential to first decide on the most important aspects of the room, which are the style and a color scheme. Homes & Gardens had a few more suggestions, such as keeping furniture timeless, creating an inspiring theme, and buying items that can grow as your son does. So, to create the ideal boy's bedroom, you're going to want your son to be able to display the things that he loves in a dynamic and fun way and have furniture and accessories that he can grow with as he gets older. Here are 35 ideas to get the ball rolling in the design department to create the perfect boy's bedroom in your own home.
