Rupa’s Baby Nursery

Rupa is an expectant mother who feels that she already has a good sense of design, but making room for baby is a challenge of a different kind. So soon-to-be daddy Denis sends his wife to Design U to help her take the first baby-steps toward a great nursery design. 





Now it's your turn!

What grade would you have given Rupa? What do you think of her design? What would you have done differently?
