When Aiden Cowburn, a property manager,
and her husband Andrew, a national sales
manager, learned they were expecting a little girl,
Aiden wanted a room that could grow with their
daughter.
Designer Christine Elliott had worked with
the homeowners before. She designed several
rooms in their 3,477 sq. ft. home inspired by a
painting of their family cottage. Both Christine
and Aiden were inspired by Aurora’s birth
month — June. “I was thrilled when we found
out we were expecting a girl,” Aiden notes, “I
wanted a very girly room. I think the spring
garden colours and concept emerged naturally.”
When Christine learned that Aiden was
expecting a girl she started to look at floral
fabrics to find the inspiration piece. “I do this
with all my projects. I find the inspiration piece
first, then build my design around it.”
