Adolescents see their room as much more than accommodation, for them it is an "escape room".

Adolescent children require more privacy and personal space to independently deal with challenges such as identity acquisition, physical and mental skills, and new social interests.

The desire for privacy and time to be alone with themselves is part of the development and transformation from adolescent to adult and therefore we will also find them more hidden in their room.

Adolescents have a different perspective on their room than adults, as they see it as not just a place to sleep but a kind of "escape room" from the world of demands and laws, a place where they are not ashamed to pour the new self and develop in their own incubator, with their own interests. .

"They have a design awareness and are up to date with all the trends, looking for sophistication along with their evolving independence, but still clinging to childhood. They see in their room a mini-apartment where they will want to spend comfortably and calmly and uninterrupted, whatever its size. Lessons, entertaining friends, sleeping and relaxing - when it all looks good, not too busy, energetic to the extent that of course, reflects their personality.This is why designing a room for a teenager should help them sort out their loves and preferences, maintain their privacy and allow them space in one space Designed and harmonious, "explains architect Ron Spiegel.

We peeked into some designer teen rooms, and the thought behind them.

For this purpose, the walls have a double wall of gypsum for good acoustics, acoustic sponge upholstery in the walls, integral speakers and extensive use of textiles and curtains to absorb noise.
