I styled and designed this superhero themed room for my 6 and 3 yr old sons. They loooooooove superheros so of course they were thrilled when they came home and saw their new room. I tried to keep it fairly simple. Its very easy to go overboard with this theme.
Main shopping resources were JcPenney and Hobby Lobby.
Landon’s big boy room is finally done! After over a year of hard work, my fiancee designed and built my son his dream bed– a VW bus bunk bed designed after our own real life ’73 VW camper van! I’m just in awe of my amazing fiancee, I mean no detail was spare… This bus/bed comes complete with a speaker system, built in radio, iPad hook up, working fans and headlights that turn on, actual parts from a VW bus (rearview mirror, bumper, etc.) and VW bus key that fits in the ignition! This really was a labor of love and my son couldn’t be happier about the outcome :-)
To complement the VW bus and really let it shine as the centerpiece of the room, we painted the room a neutral light grey and used mainly a monochrome color scheme with fun pops of color here and there. And of course we had to include my son’s love of legos and superheroes as the main inspiration for the rest of the room :)
My son needed to vacate the nursery to make room for our newest little baby girl arriving, so we got started on fixing up the guest room and turning it into his big boy room. He’s into superheroes, but I didn’t want the room to scream Marvel, so I added a few hero touches to keep him happy, but also added lots of boyish, unique elements that I think will grow with him as he gets older.
My boys are in love with all things Superhero. I wanted them to feel like Superheroes in their room.
