4 Stylish Nursery Palettes

Bring baby home to a room full of color. Find the look that's right for you.

1. Navy + Neutrals


Design: Frances Herrera Design


Navy, cream, and light gray create a modern palette that's perfect for a little boy's nursery. Crisp white walls set the tone for nautical-inspired tones and sophisticated stripes.


Monogrammed accents add to the preppy look of this space, from a classic navy crib pillow to the personalized letter art​hanging above the crib.

    2. Bright, Warm Hues


    Design: AT Kelly Design


    Pale pink, candy red, and hints of sorbet orange combine for a swirl of happy colors in this bright nursery space.


    A bold red crib skirt features a scalloped edge for a girly touch, while a pale pink bumper attaches to the crib with coordinating red ties for a matching look. A stylish, abstract painting above the crib brings this contemporary color scheme together.


    • Bridge the gap between two bold colors with pieces that incorporate a rainbow of hues, like this color-block changing table.



    3. Monochromatic


    Design: Design + Style Interiors


    A variety of gray tones—slate, charcoal, silver—come together for a relaxing, monochromatic space. Pops of white balance the grays and keep this gender-neutral nursery feeling just right.


    Trellis-patterned curtains add visual interest and elongate the window. A bold chevron rug grounds the look with dark charcoal and snowy white and adds texture. In the middle of it all, a white wood crib acts as the focal point amidst a palette of grays.


    • Add small hints of color throughout the space for dimension, like a colorful lampshade or mini wall frames



    4. Light, Cool Tones



    Tiffany blue, pastel green, and a dash of ​chocolate brown offer a traditional palette that feels fresh and new in this contemporary boys' nursery.


    A tailored crib skirt features blue and green hues and draws the eye to ​the modern white crib. Above the crib, a stylish rattan fixture adds texture and complements the browns seen in the striped rug.
