Pops of bright colour liven up this otherwise calm and simple scheme, creating a fun room for a baby and one that can easily be adapted to grow with the child. A beautiful chandelier adds a focal point, with the twinkling crystals apt to grab the baby's attention. The room was deliberately kept gender neutral so that it had the potential to accommodate future siblings of either sex. If you have space, a double bed is invaluable in a nursery as a space for changing clothes and crashing out, as well as providing useful underbed storage. Photography: Holly Jolliffe
