It’s a truth universally acknowledged that we, at Mayker, love a good neutral. A survey of our team would leave you hard pressed to find anyone who chooses brightly colored patterns over neutral tones and textures. While a penchant for neutrals is not a hiring requirement, like certainly calls to like. We all share an appreciation for the understated beauty that accompanies a thoughtfully designed, neutral interior.
But designing with a neutral palette is about more than just the pursuit of beauty. Neutrals, done well, are inherently practical, immune to time and trend. Perhaps no other room needs practicality quite like the nursery. Throughout its tenure, the nursery will be many things to many people: baby’s first room, mom’s second bedroom, a toddler’s playroom. Repeat for baby number two, three, and more.
And so, the nursery should be a space that grows with the people inside it. Designing within the bounds of a neutral palette is a surprising help to this endeavor. This one, simple decision can save time, money, and energy as the room turns over time after time to welcome its newest residents.
