By choosing solid teak and natural cane, we ensured the pieces would age well and survive years of active use, unlike factory-made alternatives. We also carefully planned the layout so the changing area remains accessible and ergonomic for parents, proving that a nursery can be both sophisticated and deeply practical for daily life. The Vayu Kapoor Ahuja project was a joy because it allowed us to balance elegance with the raw energy of childhood. We approached this room as two distinct worlds: one featuring a warm, classic teak wood crib against a lush, hand-painted jungle mural, and another side with a serene, black and white safari aesthetic. It is a perfect example of how we can use textures like natural cane and solid teak to create something sophisticated that still feels inviting for a baby. We chose these materials because they are non-toxic, durable, and bring a grounded, earthy warmth to the room that synthetic furniture simply cannot match. Every piece, from the changing table to the custom wardrobe, was designed to be at the right height for caregivers, making late-night changes and daily routines just a little bit smoother. When you approach a nursery project, think about the transitions. Your child will outgrow a crib in months, but a well-designed wardrobe or play area can evolve. That is why we integrated modular storage and thoughtful layouts that accommodate toys, books, and eventually, a school-age workspace. Whether you have a specific theme in mind or are starting with an empty room, my goal is always to build a foundation that is as functional as it is magical. ## About Anusha Nanavati Hi, I’m Anusha.
