Lindsay Lohan's Nursery Inspiration Is An Ocean Paradise. Here's How To Steal The Look

Actor Lindsay Lohan is expecting, and recently, she showed off her lovely nursery décor, created in partnership with Nestig, purveyors of cribs, rugs, and other fine, handmade home items geared toward babies. Lohan's nursery, located in her home in Dubai with her husband, investor Baden Shammas, is awash in soft textures, pale wood, and dreamy pastels, with one of its walls covered entirely by a mural illustrating a seaside scene where the ocean meets the land. The mural, titled "Morning Light," is available to order from the company's website.

Lohan's Nestig line also includes a crib that transforms into a toddler bed when needed and a dresser that doubles as a changing table, as well as accessories like mobiles and soft rugs, including one shaped like an airplane. The effect is playful, fresh, and soothing. If you're looking to create a similar vibe in your nursery or children's room, there are a few pointers on choosing colors, textures, and accessories to keep in mind to capture Lohan's style for your own.

Lohan's nursery style

Lindsay Lohan took her inspiration for the design of her nursery from the sea, which not only borders her home now along Dubai's deep blue Persian Gulf but forms a great portion of her childhood memories living on both coasts of the United States. In a recent interview with monthly magazine Architectural Digest, she shared, "I feel so peaceful by the ocean — I wanted to create a space where my little one and I could share in that feeling."

This peacefulness is echoed in the soft colors and lines of the collection, particularly the mural etched out in cotton candy blues, yellow, and pink renderings of a seaside scene and expansive sky. "The planes and the sailboat felt so instantly classic," said Lohan to the outlet, "but the almost-rainbow watercolor effect felt really fresh and unexpected. It warms the space so much and I can't wait to point out all the cute little elements to my babe." This softness is echoed in the rugs as well, which give the floor a similar visual style through playful imagery, soothing colors, and a deep, luxurious pile.

Creating a similarly inspired look

To create a calming, nurturing space for your own baby, you may consider taking a similar approach to what Lindsay Lohan and Nestig dreamed up for Lohan's seaside and ocean-paradise nursery: an attention to visual and touch stimuli. Babies and toddlers spend a lot of time in their nurseries, so making what they see engaging can have a tremendous effect on their imagination and development. Wallpapers and entire wall murals — whatever your décor scheme — are a perfect way to do this stylishly and well, particularly if the scenes depicted are patterned, dynamic, intricate, or narrative.

Similarly, rich textured rugs and accents like bedding can also be engaging for tiny hands and skin, while soft colors can proove soothing to the eye for both parents and little ones — making dreamily drifting off to sleep that much easier. You can also save yourself time and decorating funds by choosing a design scheme, materials, and furniture that will grow with the child and still be a great space for them as they transition from babies into toddlers.
