Design Reveal: Ahoy Baby!

We are blown away by this breezy, casual nursery with nautical flare created by our friends at Little Crown Interiors. Gerri and Naomi are pro’s when it comes to translating a theme into a first class kids room.  Their use of wainscotting and a bright blue color palette stirs up emotions of the Cape Cod beach house I have yet to own. And with summer officially behind us, what better way to enjoy an endless summer while rocking baby to sleep!

Child’s name: Baby Boy
Age: Infant
Location: Southern California

What was your inspiration for the room?
This room was designed with a nautical theme.  The homeowner asked for bright, fresh colors and under-the-sea inspired artwork.

What best describes your decorating style?
This particular nursery is very casual, bright and uplifting, with nautical accents.


 Please share with us your choice of paint colors, furniture, art, diy tips, etc.
1.  Glider, ottoman and lamp from Serena & Lily – www.serenaandlily.com
2.  Crib and changing table by Newport Cottages – www.newportcottages.com
3.  Row Boat shelf from Pottery Barn Kids (unfortunately discontinued)
4.  Side Table by Bradshaw Kirchoffer – www.bradshawkirchofer.com
5.  Toy box was custom built and painted by Little Crown Interiors
6.  Window treatments were custom made by Little Crown Interiors
7.  Crib bedding was custom made by Little Crown Interiors

What is your favorite item(s) in the room?
Definitely the custom painted toy box.  It draws your eye right to it when you walk in the room and has such a happy design.

    This is by far the best nautical themed room I have seen. The design has a lot going on but somehow creates a peaceful and serene environment. I love the boat style booksling on the wall! Great job.

    So cute! The photo of the closet & boat shelf…perfectly organized, makes my heart flutter! Can you imagine your child’s closet looking like that (and staying that way)? Adorable!

    Such a beautiful room. The blend of different shades of blue makes the room bright and yet soothing. Love the bookshelf and the booksling on the wall. This room is a treat for the eyes.

    What a great looking nautical nursery. The color scheme is perfect and I too love the toy box. Our signal flags are hung in a lot of nurseries with the child’s name spelled out in signal flags.
