"She can pluck magic off a big box site,"
"I was trying to build a nursery for a mini-me, but what I've learned through this pregnancy is she's not a mini-me. Tenlie built a world for my daughter that I could have never imagined myself. It was a real example of leaning on someone else's expertise."
"I was fighting the pink for Erika at first. But nothing else gave that diffused quality we wanted."
Erika Veurink requested a gender-neutral nursery with no pink and a primary-color grounding but allowed the designer creative freedom. Tenlie Mourning envisioned a foggy-field sunrise with diffused light and used Monet's Water Lilies as a tonal touchstone. The final palette includes Sherwin-Williams Honied White walls and a pale, mutable pink ceiling that shifts with natural light. A birch crib anchors the room alongside a cream glider and a repurposed IKEA cabinet extended to the ceiling and hand-painted with a trompe-l'œil motif by artist Kate Snyder. The design balances practical storage needs with an impressionistic, dream-like atmosphere.
