10×10 Nursery Layouts

This nursery layout features furniture all around the edge of the room, leaving the central space free for a baby to have some floor time or where they can play with toys as they get older.

This function of the room is further highlighted by a soft rug positioned in the middle of the space, defining a safe place where the baby can be put down.

The crib takes center stage in this layout since it is positioned centrally against the main wall. It is highlighted as the focal point of the nursery by the artwork positioned on the wall above the crib.

Scandinavian Style Nursery Layout

Scandinavian Style Nursery Layout

The theme behind Scandinavian design is simple functionality, and this nursery layout fulfills this with its minimal furnishings and clean lines.

The positioning of the furniture is restricted by the interior doorway and the double doors leading out to a balcony, so the toddler bed is set to one side on a vacant wall, with a perfectly sized bookcase fitting in next to the balcony doors.

The addition of a houseplant in the corner of the room beside the balcony helps to tie in the room with the outdoor greenery, bringing a sense of nature into the space. Some shallow cabinets have been fitted to one of the walls, creating storage space without intruding into the central floor space.

Classic Neutral Nursery

Classic Neutral Nursery

This nursery has a classic theme with a nod to traditional decor. The double floor-to-ceiling windows flood the room with light, and this airy feel is emphasized by the neutral-colored decor and the simple layout.

A chest of drawers is positioned alongside the crib, which makes sense from a functional perspective because diapers, creams, and clothing will be on hand when the baby is in the crib. It also works well aesthetically because the size of the drawers helps to balance out the size of the crib.

Bright 10-foot Nursery Layout

This is a bright and bold nursery with walls painted in a striking shade of blue. The 10 by 10-foot space has been maximized by the positioning of furniture around the edge of the room, allowing for a generous central floor space where a baby or toddler can play.

A comfortable armchair in the corner of the nursery is pointed toward the crib, so an adult could sit and relax in the chair while singing the baby to sleep, or it provides an ideal place for nursing during the night.

Modern Baby Girls Room Layout

This nursery has neutral white walls and white furniture, which is a smart way to decorate in a future-proof way because you can add soft furnishings in any color to completely transform the style.

Here, a pink cushion and some pink boxes have been used to style the room for a baby girl, but these could easily be switched out for items in a different color.

The minimalist layout in this room creates an atmosphere that feels clean and breezy, and this is further emphasized by the modern chair. A rug in the center of the space helps to define an area for free play.

Nursery Layout with Maximum Storage

Nursery Layout with Maximum Storage

This 10×10 nursery room benefits from one entire wall of floor-to-ceiling closets, creating a huge amount of storage space for baby clothes, toys, and accessories.

A floor rug occupies the central floor space, designating an area where the baby could enjoy some floor time, and this is flanked by a crib on one side and a changing table and shelf unit on the opposite side.

To ensure that the play area remains uncluttered, consider incorporating toy storage cabinets alongside the closets for an organized and accessible way to store the baby’s toys.

The way that the storage has been maximized in this room means that a clean and tidy space has been accomplished because no toys or clutter need to be on display.

The pale gray-colored furniture blends in with the pale greige walls, which also helps to make the furniture blend in and make the room feel bigger.

Crib and Bed Nursery Layout

Crib and Bed Nursery Layout

This room has minimal storage furniture included in its layout, but instead, the owners have opted to include two sleeping spaces in the room. A crib occupies one wall, while a twin bed is on the opposite wall.

This means the room could be shared by a baby and a sibling, or the twin bed could be used by a parent if the baby is struggling to settle by themselves. A large rug covering the main floor area provides a soft space where children could explore and play.

This nursery has a contemporary feel thanks to the modern decor and the minimalist layout using simply designed furniture pieces. The crib is the focal point in the room since it is positioned in the center of the wall, painted in an accent color.

A nursing chair with a small fluffy stool has been positioned alongside the crib so that a parent can sit down with their feet up while being close to the baby.

Next to the chair is a standing lamp which will be perfect to provide some soft light during nighttime feeds. A small cart at the edge of the room creates some storage space to keep toys tidy.

Spacious 10×10 Nursery Layout

Spacious 10 x 10 Nursery Layout

This nursery room feels open and spacious due to the type of furniture that has been selected and the placing of the items.

The small crib is positioned against one wall, while the remaining furniture is set around the edge of the room. Using furniture which is the same color as the background walls helps it to blend in, creating a sense of more space.

A rug occupies the middle of the floor in this room, along with some cushions, providing a soft and comfortable space where parents and babies could sit and enjoy some floor time. The chalkboard wall is a nice touch, allowing parents or children to personalize the wall with drawings.
