When it comes to design styles, there are so many options out there: modern, farmhouse, clean, minimalist, maximalist, colorful, Scandinavian, traditional, boho, cottagecore, art deco, the list goes on and on. Many people notice that their design styles change when they have kids. Some parents opt for neutral, natural tones (what some critics have deemed as "sad beige"), while other parents lean into bright colors and playful patterns. One thing a lot of parents are going for these days, though, is a cleaner, more modern look. Baby furniture used to be bulky and unattractive, but nowadays there are a lot of modern, minimalist options. Here are some of our favorite modern baby furniture options (that both "beige" and colorful parents will love).
