After moving to the suburbs when Rocco was 9 months old, I had the opportunity to improve on our original city condo nursery design in a new setting and in a great little bedroom space. We loved the charming mirrored reading nook with the presence of the central window above the foyer looking out on our front yard. It just felt completely right for the nursery spot. Our city nursery was a bold turquoise color, but I decided to tone down the walls with a basic gray, as I wanted the other elements in the room to pop more clearly (and the closet doors to fade away a bit more). I love placing the crib away from the wall, both for safety and aesthetic reasons. This room lends itself to that central crib placement, as the dominant furniture and light fixture in the room all work on the same plane and in the same line with one another, creating cohesion and fluidity to the eye.

It’s really so heartwarming to know your dad is so involved in creating this room. There’s sentimental value behind those old clown marionettes, so I’d say it’s a really great and charming addition to the room (despite the fact that I personally find old marionettes creepy — there must be a bad experience with them from a past life, haha).

Thank you so much, Annie! These marionettes, along with many other creepy ones, hang in my room growing up — suffice it to say, I don’t have the clown/puppet fear many do, maybe due to that exposure! And my Dad’s contributions are so fitting, as he and Rocco are absolutely best friends now. Their bond is incredible to witness.
