Room of the Day: Felt Creates a Happy Feeling in a Boston Nursery (4 photos)

The individual felt triangles are attached to the wall with an adhesive that allows for repositioning, so that the design can evolve or pieces can be replaced. “The idea would be you could manipulate the wall and have it be something you could change over time,” Grimley says.

Beyond its decorative benefits, the felt wall also absorbs sound, a benefit for a nursery in a house that echoes. “At night we can still be in the living room. We can talk to each other, eat dinner and not worry that the kids are going to be woken up,” Grimley says.

The nursery continues to evolve. After these photos were taken, Smith and Grimley welcomed their second daughter, and now there are two cribs in the nursery. “The biggest challenge is trying to fit two of them in there,” Grimley says, but they have no plans of relocating out of the city. “We’re very excited to kind of figure out how they both will live with each other until they’re 18.”
