Alexandra’s Safari Nursery

A pair of first-time parents-to-be approached me with a simple task: design a nursery for their soon to arrive, sex unknown baby that would incorporate a) a stuffed giraffe and b) a photograph of a bicycle. Oh, and it had be easily adaptable as a nursery for the next child that came along. Piece of cake! Not. Luckily, these parents were super open to creative ideas and we were soon able to decide on a neutral palette with hints of bright yellow and turquoise, combined with a subtle safari subtext. (However, once the stuffed giraffe was joined by the HUGE stuffed elephant that “subtle” safari theme went out the window!)
