Safari Nursery

We raised our hands to knock on the door of Client E’s 2nd story apartment and were greeted by a sweet brunette with her hand on her belly. There’s nothing better as a nursery designer than seeing how each new client reacts to her first pregnancy. After the introductions, she explained to us her hopes of creating a Safari theme nursery in her spall apartment loft space. E wanted her baby boy’s room to be sophisticated yet whimsical and detailed her favorite colors as taupe, khaki and olive green. When looking for boy’s nursery ideas, E had settled on one thought for her nursery furniture: dark. Naturally, we presented her with our favorite espresso changing table and slate iron crib from Bratt Decor. Next, we delved into fabrics, gathering earthy silks and sateens for her luxurious custom crib bedding set. Even in her small space, our floor plan allowed for a cozy nursery glider, topped with throw pillows and their family heirloom plush monkey – “CoCo”.
