| Pink is one of the most common colors that people think of when they think of designing a girls' room. Although it can be cliche, it can also be a really great color to have as a room when you're a young girl. This room here shows how bright pops of color on a fairly neutral floor can tone down the boldness of the pink walls. This creates a space that a girl can feel pretty in without making her feel too much like a princess. Private Comment

| Orange is a really great color for kids who are starting to get older but who aren't quite teens yet. It's a fun color and a color that works equally well for girls and boys. Here we see black and grey decor that keeps the orange from being too bold. Another option would be blue accenting. Private Comment

| Yellow is a terrific color for kids' rooms whether you've got boys or girls. It's a color that comes in many hues so you can have soft rooms or bold rooms depending on your child's personality. Here the bold yellow is toned done a bit with the blues and more neutral colors of the rest of the space. Private Comment

| Choosing a few different colors that compliment each other and laying them out block-style in a room can be a great design option for a child's bedroom. Here the cabinets, desk and storage have different blocks of color. The rug also serves as a block of bold hue in the room. The colors are bright enough to be lively but not so bold as to be overwhelming. Private Comment

| Another way to achieve the same effect with multiple colors is to put big blocks of color throughout the room. Here we've got a block of orange in the storage, a block of green in the shelving and a block of color made up by the bed. What's great here is that the rest of the room is light so the color stands out and really creates a bouncy feeling for the room. Private Comment

| Stripes of the same color family are a terrific way to add some pop and pizzazz to a child's room without making the room feel too crazy. In this case, stripes in different colors of blue on the beds create a great look for a boys' bedroom. What I don't like here is the bit of green we see in the rug and the drawers. I think a rug that carried through with the blue striped theme would have served this room better. Private Comment
