We’re on the verge of the transition from cot to bed, so I’ve been researching fall-out prevention strategies. One of the funkiest ideas I’ve come across is this bed rail/bookshelf which is meant to encourage children to stay in bed and browse their reading material if they do wake up – so (theoretically) no early [...]

Beautiful, uncluttered, contemporary design with that super desirable blend of functional meets style. I [...]
