New parents spend hours thinking of ways on how to welcome their baby into their new home. They imagine what kind of person the child will be like. What kind of toys will they like? What will they choose as their favorite color? A million questions run through the mind of new parents in anticipation of their little bundle of joy.
The big question is how will you decorate your new baby’s room to make it welcoming for them. Deciding on a layout is just as difficult as choosing what to put in it. There are many options out there and it makes it hard to agree on anything.
In this list, we will show you 10 nursery room design trends of 2020 to help make your decision a little easier.
Unique design that reflects personality
Make it a room that reflects your personality and character as a new parent. It’s your home, so why not make it a room that is tailored to your needs and your baby’s. Ask yourself what your expectations will be when using and interacting with the room, as well as your habits, routines, and personal taste like for example you’d like custom neon signs to make everything just for your baby. You’ll be spending almost as much time in there as you do in your bedroom, so make it comfortable.
Small is in
Work with the limited space you have and make it seem like you have more than there actually is. It’s all about placement and how you style the room. Select smart furniture that can serve a purpose as well as fit that design you envision the room to be.
Countryside chic
Give the room a touch of style and a dash of rustic feel by mixing up patterns. A room design with farmhouse wall signs, antiques, new decor, and colors of green and muted tones can make the room feel timeless. The thing to remember here is that rustic accents can offer themselves to be varying in style and themes from shabby chic to country farmhouse.
Gender-neutral nurseries
We can expect gender-neutral nurseries to rise in more popularity as society grows to be more open to different family dynamics. It won’t always be that you’ll see an all pink or all blue nursery now that these styles of nurseries are in.
Multipurpose nursery furniture
That dresser in your nursery room can serve a dual purpose as a changing table. Use the chest where you store the baby’s toys as a baby needs station. Get creative with the furniture and find ways to make efficient use of the space you’re given.
Changing baskets
It looks charming, stylish, and practical on top of providing you a natural change station option alternative to the traditional changing pads. The changing basket is portable for you to bring around the house. Additionally, it can also serve as an adorable caddy for stuffed toys when they’re not being played with.
Rattan/Wicker is making a comeback
Rattan and wicker provide a natural and earthy feel to a room. You’ll find many nurseries designed with these materials because of the warmth and texture it adds.
Green like a forest
It may not be your cup of tea but give some consideration to painting your nursery a nice, deep shade of green. It brings a sense of intrigue to the room as well as sophistication at the same time. Decorate the room with a touch of brass and vintage accents and millwork to break the monotony. It has become quite a popular choice because of how versatile it works across many different nursery styles.
Back in Black
A simple option to make the nursery more stylish is to use black. Black walls, black prints, black furniture, and fixtures, it will give a commanding presence to the room. If that’s a bit excessive, you can find a wallpaper with an interesting design to match the color.
Attraction to florals
Not exactly a new trend but it still has shown popularity as a design choice for nurseries. It’s no surprise as to why. Floral wallpaper can make a room feel soft and sweet, vintage, whimsical, or anything depending on how you want it to feel.
