Night Owl Gender Neutral and Modern Nursery Design

A friend expecting a baby this Winter asked me to create an inspiration board for a modern, yet cozy gender neutral nursery. She wants to leave the walls painted white, but envisions hints of bright color. Her love for nature and birds drew me to design a room with our nocturnal feathered friend in mind.

  3. Nurseries are getting so much more interesting these days!! The wood lamps are unexpected in such a room...almost makes me want another one. (Baby, not lamp, that is.)

  5. gee i reckon that's the first true gender neutral nursery (not white) i've ever seen - so many people say their nursery is gender neutral, then I see the pink and blues in there... so it would have to change.

    What is the colour on the wall behind the mobile?

  6. I really like this Cristin! It's refreshingly unexpected and would make an adorable nursery. The owl prints are cute. Hope you're having a great weekend!

  9. Owls are so big right now - in clothing, jewelry, even this - so of course, I'm loving it. The colors are wonderful, and your grouping is magnificent! I'd live here ... if I still fit into a crib! LOL! Hope you can check out my blog soon, the first of the many interior shots of the house now that I'm having better luck with my camera. The first of the series is up now!

  12. Hi, I just discovered your blog and I love it! You've got some really great ideas. I put together a few design schemes on my blog too for fun. I would love to have you stop by and get your opinion on them and talk design some time. Here is a link for one if you get a chance: http://recklessbliss.blogspot.com/2009/12/traditional-bedroom-design-scheme.html
