Nursery Spotlight: Chevron

Mom-to-be Maggie B. was going for a look that was “gender neutral, bright and playful, and not too juvenile or grown-up” in her nursery. We think she captured that balance perfectly!

We love the bright, modern details in this nursery, especially the chevron ottoman and pillows with the grey-and-turquoise color scheme.

For a pop of color, try chevron-patterned ceiling fans. They’re easy (and cheap!) to DIY — check out Design Sponge for instructions.

This nursery is the ultimate little girl’s room. To keep the look from going overboard, stick to simple, neutral furniture.

For an unexpected twist, mix up prints. The combination of chevron and polka dots in this nursery creates a playful contrast.

The parents of this baby boy’s nursery wanted to create a space that was masculine and could grow with their son, opting for a navy-and-white chevron accent wall to contrast the otherwise neutral color scheme.
