Favorite other nursery from the contest:
Our favorite other entry in the contest was Violet’s Urban Treehouse. Their entry in Smallest Coolest Apartments 2007 is one of our favorites, and we love seeing the nursery in the context of such a warm, sophisticated space.

What's next on your nursery to-do list?
We’re thinking of trying to create a faux window where the Kozyndan picture is now. We’re considering either hanging a vintage window or mounting a lightbox with a translucent landscape print.

Despite the lack of a window, it feels like a very warm and inviting space. Wonderful!

The video was very touching - your baby seems to love the room. I love the way you used such a small space to make a practical room for your baby. I love the giraffe!!!

Love the nursery even more than the first time! What are those alphabet pictures? They are quite gorgeous, and look like original silk screens... (and really cute jammies, by the way!)

I wish the video had a pan of the whole room instead of all those close-ups of toys--I still don't have a good sense of the big (or little!) picture of how the whole room is laid out. Is there somewhere to sit? Maybe a floor plan would help?

On a different note, what album is that Radiohead remake from?
