Young, Trendy Parents Love Modern Style for their Kids Rooms
It's no secret that younger parents seem to adore the trendy, modern look throughout many elements of their lives. From clothing to music, keeping up with the latest in pop culture, fashion and design is a main focus. When it comes to these parents' children, they often allow their penchant for forward facing looks trickle down into what their child wears, the toys they play with and the look of their bedroom.
In this article, we'll suggest some great ways young parents with modern taste can keep up with the latest trends for their kids and their bedrooms. When it comes to creating a modern look in a bedroom, the best way to achieve this is through the furniture and bedding you choose. The bedding should feature a trendy pattern such as geometric, animal print, or mod artsy flowers and other popular child decorative items. Contrasting color choices also make the room instantly trendy, some popular choices being brown or black and pastel colors.

A La Carte Basics

Bed: Platform Beds like the Argington Ayers Twin Bed in White are perfect for creating a modern look in your child's room. The platform style is incredibly trendy with its streamlined design and it is discrete with this particular piece featuring a cut out rectangle as "feet" for the front, such a unique look. |

Nightstand: When it comes to nightstands, which can already be a very simple piece of bedroom furniture, the simpler the look for modern style, the better. The SouthShore Step One Night Stand is a great example of a very simple look that screams contemporary throughout the bedroom. On the other hand, the simple, curved look of the SouthShore Jumper Night Stand achieves the same result. |

Dresser: If a trendy, mod look is what you're after, you will want to choose a dresser with straight, clean lines. You might even want to experiment with a two-toned look like you see in the Babyletto Mercer Two Toned Dresser where two opposing colors contrast for a really fun look. If you're looking for one kind of finish, the Argington Barn Dresser might be perfect for your child's room. |
Bedding
When choosing bedding, you'll want to look at both the patterns and color schemes. Leopard print, geometric patterns and solids make great modern looks. When it comes to colors, you can't go wrong with black and white or any single color, but if you're looking for something colorful, contrasting looks are great. Examples of great contrasting colors are black or brown highlighted by lime green, baby blue, bright pink or beige.
