When considering how to design and style a modern classic nursery there a a few tried and true tips we like to keep in mind. .

We love to use vintage touches in our decor while styling a Modern Classic Nursery. Vintage artwork, or furniture is a great place to start.

One of our best pieces of advice when it comes to designing and styling a nursery is to use neutral tones that can grow with your child. As much as we all want them to stay little they grow up and you want a room that will grow with them at each stage. Keeping colors neutral makes it easy to transition to a big kid room.

While keeping it neutral if you want to make a statement wallpaper is a great option. We love to use wallpaper on an accent wall, giving the nursery a cozy modern classic feel.

At Porche and Co. we love a beautiful rug and curtains in a nursery. This adds so much warmth and character to a room. It’s also a great place to pull texture into the room and even a pop of a muted color with the curtains.

One of our absolute favorite design items in a nursery that can make such a huge impact in styling is a statement light fixture. A stunning light fixture can make a room feel complete.
