In our Nursery 101 series, we asked interior designers and experts their favorite tips and how-to's on creating the perfect nursery.
Take a stroll down Sasha Bikoff's sandy, sunset beach nursery! Below, the renowned interior designer shares her top Nestig picks and advice for designing the nursery and playroom.
Eclectic, unique, vibe-y
This originally was a guest room however I always had in mind that one day would be converted to a nursery. The surfboards are actually part of a bed I designed in 2019 for Versace at an exhibition during Miami Art Basel. It was the headboard of the bed. I removed the base which was kind of this ombre tie dye and I put the crib up against it. This bed really drove the design of the room and so I went out to create a sandy glowing sunset beach. I knew this theme would be versatile between a guest room and a nursery. It is also perfect for our lifestyle out in East Hampton.
Wave Crib in Walnut: I loved the warm toned finish and the rounded shape detail. It felt perfect for a surfer beachy room.
Seabound Shelf: We have a sea theme so we needed as much nautical motifs as possible. This piece is adorable but also genius with its shelves and bin storage below.
Creator Play Table: I plan on doing lots of crafts with my son so we needed a table and chairs. These are sturdy enough that even I fit in the chair!
Gingham Sheet Set in Buttercup: The bright yellow tones really make the perfect complement to the golden warm grasscloth wallpaper in the room.
Wallpaper that inspires and excites, a rug to ground the space, and fun twinkling lighting
My advice would be to create a world that can be totally imaginative and run with it 100 percent.
I am looking forward to using this space as a place for my son to dream in but also as a place I can teach and he can learn and for us to have those really intimate special moments surrounded by the things we love.
