17 Minimalist Nursery Ideas That Do Not Skimp on Style

Note: While these nursery photos are gorgeous, please know that it’s NOT safe to place stuffed animals, pillows, bumpers, or any loose items inside your infant’s sleep space until Baby is a year old. —Dr. Harvey Karp

Minimalism is big right now. Or should we say, small. The lifestyle trend of the decade is revealing itself to be a lack of excess. Purge, keep what you need and love, and create and uphold spaces that feel clean, uncluttered, and attractive for their simplicity. Now, not all new parents or parents-to-be subscribe to the minimalism trend (all the gear babies need kind of invites maximalism), but plenty of parents are hoping to create a serene minimalist nursery for their newest little love. Here is some minimalist nursery inspiration…

These simple shelves serve two purposes: Visually, they are a perfect continuation of the minimalist nursery vibe you are angling for, because they look natural, simple, and unobtrusive. Practically, they house knickknacks, toys, clothing, books, and whatever else you need to keep up, away, and off the floor to reduce clutter in the nursery.

Let us face it: Babies need a lot of stuff. Keep it corralled without overthinking, and in a way that will be easy to maintain in the busy months and years ahead. A few generous baskets set about the room will keep clutter (and stress!) at bay.

If you are tight on closet space, or using that area to house furniture, consider an industrial, bare-bones clothing rack to display and store Baby’s clothes in the nursery. Clean lines and a neutral colour round out the minimalist nursery effect. The base of the rack serves as additional storage for bins and baskets to keep trinkets and blankets up off the floor.

Creating a pale, soft colour scheme of whites, creams, and beiges is a great way to carry out the minimalist theme in the nursery. Even the rocking horse and rainbow decal above the crib here are colourless, so whimsy and charm is brought in effortlessly and without jarring the eye in this simple, boho baby room. 

Convertible Minimalist Nursery Furniture

This convertible changing table and bookshelf will grow with Baby through the years and features a clean, minimalist design that is pleasing to the eye.

Many parents will tell you that the most-used item in their child’s nursery was the rocking chair. From late-night feeds to early-morning cuddles and mid-afternoon reading or quiet play, you will want to invest in a chair (and ottoman, too) that are comfortable, functional, and aesthetically pleasing. Skip the wild patterns or colours and go for a streamlined look to carry out your minimalist baby room.

Simply Beautiful Shelves for a Minimalist Nursery

Minimalism does not always have to be boho, though the two often go hand-in-hand. If you lean more toward a more art deco look, consider sleek shelving with gold or marble accents to help you create a minimalist effect that still feels elegant and chic.

A key component to the minimalist nursery is to only have what you need. It is okay to have more items in Baby’s room than you would in, say, your own. But truly fine-tune and edit out the excess to create a minimalist nursery that only showcases the absolute needs of your child. This will be the perfect way to welcome your bundle without that feeling of excess you’re fighting.

You often see them in living rooms and other shared spaces, but this trend certainly has a place in the baby’s room, too. Blanket ladders are great for storage and rather than a trunk or basket, they take up very little space to keep the room as neat and pared-down as possible.
