The brief

The clients, expecting their first daughter, wanted a nursery that felt magical and welcoming while honouring their Victorian home's character. The cot needed to become the focal point, alongside a comfortable nursing area and practical storage, in a scheme that could grow with their child.

Location:
Edinburgh
Room type:
Children's rooms

The layout

Before and after nursery floor plans showing reconfigured cot, nursing chair and storage
Existing and proposed nursery layouts.

The revised layout places the cot against the main wall, with a nursing chair and reading lamp in a separate corner. Storage is grouped along the opposite side, opening up the centre of the room and giving each activity a clear place.

Developing the design

A woodland story with Victorian character

The muted green woodland wallpaper and dusty pink wall panelling create a soft, storybook backdrop while celebrating the home's period details. Rich timber furniture adds contrast, with cream upholstery and scalloped rugs balancing the scheme.
