Nursery trends 2008

NURSERY TRENDS 2008

One of the trends we have seen has been the move towards the darker wood nursery furniture over the last few months. Some of the vibrant and chocolate shades of dark brown and deep red have come in play recently.

People are more cost conscious generally and are looking for furniture that can perform multiple tasks as baby gets older. Function and practicality are key, with storage and conversion to other uses being top favourites. For example, we have seen a huge interest in the cot bed market as opposed to just cots. Almost 80% of our enquiries now relate to the cot beds with storage underneath rather than just the cot itself

People appear to be responding to the more ingenious and seasonal designs of nursery furniture such as sleigh beds etc

Finally bedding styles are more natural, smoother and eco friendly
