How to Design a Gender-Neutral Nursery
You won’t see any pink or blue here
By Miranda Silva

July 19, 2016

Pink for girls, blue for boys. As outdated—and limited—as that color palette may sound, it still tends to rule when it comes to mainstream decorating options for a nursery. But shops and designers are beginning to break with tradition, offering bedding, furnishings, and accessories that are both gender-neutral and sophisticated (we’re not talking about yellow duckies). “Designing nurseries has become my absolute favorite thing to do,” says Jacquelyn Clark of Toronto-based interior design firm and blog Lark & Linen. Using a recent project as inspiration, she offers advice for creating a baby’s room that combines playfulness with adaptability.

Pick your palette carefully
Clark stuck to a palette of grays and whites for a serene space that can be customized over time. “This is a great rule of thumb when it comes to decor in general, but it rings especially true when it comes to designing a gender-neutral nursery,” says Clark. “Try to stick to a semi-neutral base to begin, and then infuse more personal touches when baby makes his or her debut.”

But don’t be afraid of pattern and color
“Adding graphic wallpaper or painting the ceiling a bold hue is a great way to add depth and interest,” says Clark, who used a lighthearted yet sophisticated Cole & Son design here.

Use a light touch
Gone are the days of the floor-to-ceiling themed nursery. Even so, it helps to sprinkle a recurring element throughout the room. “Geometrics, furry friends, or ‘under the water,’ are all sweet and simple ideas that work beautifully for any baby,” says Clark, who added creature comforts here in the form of bunny figurines and a cat-ears hamper. “Keep in mind that when it comes to themes, less is usually more. A few little moments here and there is all you really need to tie the room together.

Balmoral Castle: Everything You Need to Know About Where the Queen Spent Her Final Days
The Scottish holiday home of the British royal family was especially beloved by the late monarch, Queen Elizabeth II
By Madeleine Luckel and Jordi Lippe-McGraw

September 8, 2022

It was a tradition for Queen Elizabeth II to spend part of her summer at Balmoral Castle in the Scottish Highlands. This year was no different, and, with her health declining, the 96-year-old British monarch ended up taking her last breath at the beloved property on September 8, 2022.

Her family, including her son Charles (now officially King Charles III) and grandson Prince William, traveled to Royal Deeside, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, to be by her side in her final days at the castle, which was long said to have been her favorite.

So what is interesting about the Queen’s former summer home? Below, we break down what exactly a design buff needs to know about the vacation palace—from its history and architecture to its interiors and surrounding grounds. Queen Elizabeth II did a good job of keeping the extravagant dwelling private, but there are a few interesting design details that have slipped out over the years. (It also served as the setting of an especially memorable episode in Season 4 of The Crown, aptly titled “The Balmoral Test.”)

Where exactly is it?
Royal Deeside, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. It’s on the River Dee and not far from the Lochnagar Mountain. Balmoral Castle is roughly 500 miles from Buckingham Palace, a nine-hour drive.

Who owns it?
Though official royal residences like Windsor Castle and Buckingham Palace are owned by the Crown Estate—which is funded by British taxpayers—Balmoral was Elizabeth’s personal property, inherited through her family. Her only other privately owned residence is Sandringham, located in Norfolk, England.

How long has the British royal family had it?
It was first rented in 1848 and was bought in 1852. It was purchased by Prince Albert for himself and his wife, Queen Victoria. He acquired Balmoral six years after the couple first visited Scotland. It’s been passed down through the royal family ever since.
