Natural materials are used in the decoration of all surfaces of the children’s room. Let’s take a closer look at this issue.
Wall decoration
- Photo wallpapers. The most common option for a children’s room. It can be a tree with forest heroes, an image of grass, bamboo, forest. Everything that is connected with nature and will be interesting to the child. Just choose paper wallpaper, they are the most environmentally friendly.

- Wooden panels. A great way to highlight a part of the wall or a functional area in the nursery. This is often how the place behind the bed is decorated, since it is the center of the entire interior composition.

- Decorative plaster. It comes in different colors and it is easier to make decorative accents with it. In addition, the presence of different textures in the nursery is welcome. The child will study the walls and replenish the stock of tactile sensations.

- Fresh flowers. Other rooms, in eco style, require an abundance of plants. The nursery is no exception. But here you need to approach wisely. Place them so that the child could not get them. Unless, of course, you have a very little one. For older children, the rules are the same as in the basic concept of eco-style. There should be a lot of plants, flowers, cacti.
Landscaping of the children’s room.
Plants in the nursery create a special microclimate, soothe the child.
- Cork tree. A wonderful eco-friendly option. It’s very warm. And it also has excellent sound insulation, which is very important for the nursery.

Floor finishing
- We recommend using parquet flooring for finishing the floor. Laminate flooring won’t do here. This is an artificial substitute that does not fit into the style of eco at all.

- You can also lay a marmoleum. This is the same linoleum, only made of natural materials.

Ceiling finishing
- Paint. The most suitable material for the ceiling. Do not complicate the interior with unnecessary details. It is not necessary to build multi-level structures from drywall. As simple and fast as possible. The shade is usually chosen white or light warm. It will visually lighten the dark corners and due to this it will seem higher.

- Wooden beams. This method should be used when the nursery space allows. The room should be spacious and the ceilings are high. Also, lighting in abundance is an important point. Only then can such a decor be placed on the ceiling. In other cases, just paint.

Decorative elements
All interior decorations in the children’s room should be fixed on the walls and not interfere with fun games.
- Decorative lining made of plywood. You can make them in the form of trees, deer, birds and even a silhouette of a world map. They are left in their natural form or painted in natural shades.

- Live plants. We have already talked about them above. They are placed on the wall so that the baby cannot reach them. Otherwise, nature will not stay in this room for long. But it is very useful to bring the baby to the flowers and allow him to touch them with his fingers.
Using plants enlivens the room.
- Lampshades for lamps. They are made from tree branches or rattan plaits. They are also a decoration in the nursery.

Pieces of furniture in the interior of the nursery
Furniture is selected in simple shapes from natural materials. Wood, rattan weaving, natural textiles on upholstered chairs. Do not overload the interior with diverse sets. Start from the size of the room. If the room is spacious, then you can even make a hanging wooden house for the baby. It’s like he’s on a tree, which will confirm his image on the wallpaper.
If space is limited, use only the essentials. Bed, table, chair, bedside table, wardrobe, chest of drawers, bookcase. Sometimes even such a set will be too voluminous. Remember, eco style loves a little minimalist. Cleanliness and order, space and freedom, the energy of heat and the sun. Here are the feelings that should remain from the final result.

Textiles in the children’s room
Textiles in the nursery should not take all the attention. But if you have a wallpaper with a floral ornament, you can repeat it on the curtains. And it will look interesting. Is it worth mentioning that all textile elements are made of natural materials. Such as cotton, jute, ramie, flax. They have a natural palette of shades. The other one will not come out if the condition of naturalness is met.
We need to think over another nuance. In the daytime, curtains should not interfere with sunlight spreading golden rays around the room.
