Posters teen aged kids are happy to hang in their rooms (that you like too) are rarer than unicorn poop. So, in the interests of preserving domestic harmony around the country, La La Land has rounded up ten great teen posters that have been given the thumbs up by real live teenagers. The good news for parents is that none of them feature Marilyn Manson, boy bands with floppy hair or aliens tearing scantily clad women limb from limb.
If you’re redecorating as a surprise, we’ve also developed some sure-fire tips for selecting a winning poster for your teen’s room. Let’s turn those battlefields back into bedrooms with some posters teen aged kids will love.
Teen posters #1: Dancing Queen
Cheeky teen aged girls with a love for dance and an irreverent sense of humour are sure to love ‘Dancing Queen’. Featuring our beloved monarch en pointe and wearing a tutu, it’s still a little bit girly with just the right level of sass.
Teen Posters #2: Surfer Chew
Teen aged lads with a passion for the surf and a penchant for Star Wars will be double wowed by Surfer Chew. This illustration by Lilly Perrot, our in-house artist, is printed on 115gsm paper that’s 100% recycled. Its bright colours and quirky subject make it a failsafe addition to our list of posters teen aged boys will love.
Teen Posters #3: Perfect Weather to Fly
With its beautifully balanced colours and unique perspective, this stunning poster is by one of La La Land’s contributing artists, Jessica Watts. Printed on cotton rag paper with archival quality inks, it will be a part of your teen’s décor for many years to come and can move from the bedroom to any other room with ease as they grown up.
Teen Posters #4: Intuition
For the fan of the fantasy genre comes this limited edition poster, titled ‘Intuition’. Teens of both genders will love the neutral palette and the intricate details of this ethereal girl and her wise companion. This painting comes from artist Melissa Hartley’s ‘Unknown Wild’ series.
Teen Posters #5: TREX
For your budding paleontologist we are including TREX in our list of ten posters teen aged kids will love. It was illustrated by Animal Crew and as with all the La La Land posters, it fits in a standard A2 size frame. This makes our posters the super-fast and fuss free way to get a poster on your teen’s wall, pronto!
Teen Posters #6: Man's Best Friend
Dog-mad teens will be smitten with this series of small posters by Carmen Hui. Featuring prints of her series of stunningly intricate animal portraits, your selection will line up beautifully in any configuration of frames. Each poster is a reproduction of a pencil drawing, with a slight border for framing and the artist’s signature on the bottom right corner.
Teen Posters #7: Music Royalty
The music-inspired teen who raids your vintage vinyl is the right candidate for La La Land’s Music Royalty poster. This is an illustration that has through-the-roof levels of cool cred. Added to that, its landscape orientation makes it a great poster to hang over a bed that’s running length-ways along a wall.
Teen Posters #8: Hipstory
Got a teenager with a political opinion or an passion for pop culture? Older teens will appreciate the juxtaposition of world leaders, people of influence and cultural icons with hipster style in this incredible series of illustrations by Amit Shimoni. The ‘Hipstory’ collection features one off portraits or mini selections of smaller prints, as well as large print sizes for the truly obsessed fan.
Teen Posters #9: Happiness Emu
Fuse skate culture with Australian fauna and intensely vibrant colours and what do you get? A Happiness Emu, of course. We adore it for its perfect improbability and its ability to bring a smile to everyone’s face who gazes upon it. It has to be one of our favourite additions to this collection of posters teen aged kids will adore too.
Teen Posters #10: Caffeinated Koala
Got a teenager you just can’t get out of bed in the morning? That’s who we were thinking about when we included ‘Caffeinated Koala’ in our round-up of posters teen aged kids will love. From the original illustration by Olivia York, this limited edition of just 30 giclee prints are printed on A3 acid free paper to ensure they’ll be around for generations.
Tips for selecting a poster teen aged kids will love
If you’re decorating your teen aged child’s room and you want to choose a poster that appeals to them, here are three sure-fire tips.
- Check out their wardrobe and note down the shades of their favourite items of clothing. These are the things they never take off, and they’re sure-fire indicators of a winning colour scheme for your poster.
- Scope out where you think it should hang in their room. Will a single large item or a series of smaller items suit best? Is the space best suited to portrait or landscape orientated posters?
- Using your preferred search engine, type in the names of a couple of their favourite things along with the word ‘poster’ and see what pops up.
At La La Land, we have an amazing selection of A2 sized posters that make a huge impact in any room. Browse our range of posters – not only for teen aged kids, but for every member of the family.
