Modern Baby Nursery - Modern Style Nursery Decorating Ideas

If you like modern and contemporary for your nursery, focus on clean lines, simple forms and functionality - those should be reflected in your choice of furniture, bedding and accessories.
 
Modern Nursery Furniture
 
Select a crib and dresser / changing table which are made of natural materials and have simple structure. Ouef, Stokke and NurseryWorks are great examples of brands which make modern cribs. In addition to standard cribs, there are also oval / round cribs (such as the Stokke Sleepi model) on the market today - another modern option for you to consider. See a couple of modern crib examples below:
 
 
Oeuf Classic Crib - BirchThe Ouef Classic Crib (in birch) is the perfect example of a modern crib with clean lines. It can also convert to a toddler bed to grow with your child. 
Mercer Modern Crib - White / EspressoThis Mercer Modern Crib by Babyletto (in pine) has a streamlined modern design in a contemporary two-tone finish. It also converts to a toddler bed.
Modern Nursery Bedding
 
For bedding, find one with bright colors and geometric shapes and patterns. Abstract patterns are also very modern. Avoid having ruffles on your bedding - a crib skirt is more suited to a traditional style. Some brands we love are DwellStudio, Skip Hop, Banana Fish and Picci. In terms of colors for the walls, focus on pastels, oranges or browns as the perfect backdrop for your nursery. View some beautiful modern bedding sets below:
 
DwellStudio Chocolate Dots 4 Piece Bedding SetThis DwellStudio Chocolate Dots set is a best-seller with its modern geometric high-contrast motif; also available in deep fuchsia.
Picci Green Forest 4 Piece SetThe Green Forest set by Picci is romantic and simple, with a beautiful color combination.
Another DwellStudio Garden 4 Piece Bedding Set                                                            favorite by DwellStudio, the Garden bedding set is vintage and modern at the same time; it has a contemporary brown & pink color combination.
Modern Nursery Art Pieces
 
Finally, choose art pieces that reflect the modern flair in the rest of the room. In addition to choosing children art, you can pick contemporary art that carries the colors of your bedding or free-form wall murals. Find your inspiration below:
 
The Land of Nod has a great collection of modern wall art with a variety of color schemes to choose from: Vine Wall Stick OnThis Vine Wall Stick On is a great example of an elegant and modern pattern; it also removes without damaging walls.
This Wild Kingdom Wall Art features a collage of animals from A to Z. Its two-tone Kids Colorful Framed Animal Collage Wall Artcolor scheme and streamlined design make it very contemporary. This blue & green one will be a great fit for a blue & green nursery.
 
Colorful abstract art pieces will definitely contribute to the modern feeling in your nursery. In addition, high contrast patterns are said to stimulate baby's site development:
