As much as I love all kinds of color, I find myself strongly attracted to bold black and white lately. Maybe after years of putting colors together in endless trend-following combinations, my brain just needs a break. Black and white together are both relaxing in their simplicity, yet exciting with their high-contrast.
It may not be the newest trend, but I am noticing more and more nurseries and products in black and white, lately. It's a look accessible for all - easy to interpret across many subjects. Whether it's geometric lines, triangles, or tribal arrows and cactii - black and white works it's magic. Always a classic in fashion, black and white feels fresh applied to children's products.
And besides, babies only see in black and white, anyways. But we all know the nursery is really for the adults. That's why decorating it is so fun!

Every Modern nursery needs a swiss cross, right? Especially in black and white!
Stripes, chevrons, dots, crosses, diamonds, triangles, hearts, flowers....What's your favorite modern black and white pattern?

Hey, doesn't that pop of green look fresh, too? Hint Hint... I think there's a lot more greeny green on the horizon for nurseries this year, too...
