Pink and aqua color combination took on the popular in nursery design for baby-girls. Maybe somebody won’t like this color combination, personally I don’t mind. Aqua color makes the nursery light and tender, and pink color adds brightness and some spice. Most of all I liked the lounge with a reading nook. It doesn’t have a designer’s  emphasis, therefore it looks as if being lost in the overall nursery design. But when a glance falls on  translucent pink curtains, appears a desire to get inside. Moreover, this room can be modernized by exchanging a baby crib on a small bed, when a child is three or four years.The baby room turned out bright and funky with personalized touches and plenty of place for playing.
