How could you design a bedroom that a boy and girl share?

Dragonfly

I am a teenage girl sharing a bedroom with kid brother. I hate it but my parents just cant afford to get us our own private rooms. Which is understandable. So I really, really want to redo our room but can't find any unisex decorating ideas that aren't aimed at really little kids. This is like a 14 year old freshman girl and a 10 year old, 4th grade boy, both very mature. We want something that will make the room a pleasant, comfortable space for both of us. It sucks to share a room, but I think it will be easier if we design it well. Any ideas are appreciated. Links are awesome. Thank you guys SOOO much!!! :)

My niece and nephew share a room. They have different bedding, but the wall color and curtains were picked out to match both sets of bedding.
The boy has darker furniture, the girl has lighter. But it all blends nicely because the main colors of the room still match.

yeah, i know we are old to be sharing but some people just cant afford big houses with separate rooms for each kid
Thank you so much, "someone somewhere" :) I loved the links!! The room is 12 by 9 feet i think. We have bunkbeds, two dressers, a bookshelf, and a desk. It is pretty cramped but i am totally willing to get rid of things, consoladate, switch stuff out, etc. We are pretty open as far as color schemes go. We both like blue, green, gray, white, purple..

Again, thank u so much!

If you did a room themed like Feng Shui which is like a tranquil Japanese style....you could use rice paper dividers for privacy, it would be modern, mature, and unisex.
