The Youth Room in your church should be a conducive space where teens can gather together to study, pray and exchange ideas. Enlisted below are some practical tips for renovating a space that exudes a successful ambiance for letting your youth leaders grow and develop.
Clear The Mess
Don’t make the Youth Room look like a storage house. Retain things that are required on daily basis and clear the rest of clutter. Have some extra cabinets in the room to store spare items that have been populated over time, and are not of regular use. Keep a check on any kind of cluttering that happens over a week, and return any excess luggage to where it belongs.
Appropriate Planning Of Space
Outline the kind of activities you are looking to carry out in the room, such as small meetings, hangout place or just the assembly spot. Whatever space you have, you need to curb things in that much area. Flexible furnishings should be done to ensure that any makeshift operation can be carried out when required. Have some additional chairs outside the room for students to play games, study or chat.
Be Selective While Choosing Shades
One of the quickest ways to change the appearance of room is to use varying shades that have a power to communicate. They sharply contrast the ambiance you are looking to construct and create positive vibes. Poor choice of colors can reduce the sparkling effect with a cutting edge. Simple light colors do look good at our houses, but here, it has to be something unique.
Graffiti
If you can find a volunteer or a friend with exceptional graphical designing skills, you can add to the charm of the Youth Room. Graphical representation is an extremely influential tool to communicate powerful messages. The youth of today are more fascinated by graphics than simple text learning. Pictorial images can have a stimulating effect on the teens, building a stronger sense of community among themselves. Include graphics in all sorts of showcased content, such as the walls, event flyers or the room signatures, to communicate a unified and organized vision.
Get Comfortable Seats
Outdated furnishings can send a negative signal to the visitors. You just cannot compromise with the level of comfort at any cost. Make sure to avail special deals at the furniture store for microfiber furniture, synthetic or basic leather, that are both fashionable and durable. Apart from helping the teens to enjoy a comfortable space, an investment like this reflects your commitment towards providing a desirable ambiance.
Lighting
Anything or everything you put inside the Youth Room will go in vain without proper lighting. An intimate setting is what you should be looking for. Floor lamps and colored LED bulbs can be a great asset. Replace those fluorescent lights on the ceilings and give the space more like a living-room feeling.
