Inside Kayla Reid Lochte’s Nursery Design
Designing a nursery is one of the most personal spaces in a home, and for Kayla Reid Lochte, the vision for her daughter’s room was clear from the start.
Kayla and her husband, former Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte, wanted a nursery that felt soft, feminine, calming, and elevated.
After welcoming a son first, this nursery became an opportunity to lean into blush tones, soft neutrals, and layered textures while still keeping the design modern and refined.
The centerpiece of the room?
Our Ophelia Wall Mural.
Why Peel and Stick Wall Murals Work So Well in Nurseries
One of the reasons peel and stick wall murals have become so popular in nursery design is because they instantly transform a room without requiring a permanent renovation.
With a wall mural, you can:
- Create a focal point behind a crib or bed
- Add colour and texture without overwhelming the space
- Design a room that feels custom and intentional
- Easily refresh the room as your child grows
This flexibility makes murals ideal for nurseries, kids rooms, and statement walls.
The Ophelia Wall Mural: Soft Abstract Art for Nurseries
The Ophelia Wall Mural combines soft blush tones with layered abstract movement to create a design that feels artistic while still calming.
In this nursery, the mural became the perfect backdrop for the room’s pink chrome crib, adding softness and visual texture without competing with the furniture or decor.
This is one of the reasons abstract art wall murals work so beautifully in nurseries:
- They feel elevated and timeless
- They add dimension without feeling busy
- They grow with the space over time
Instead of creating a room that feels overly themed, murals like Ophelia help create a nursery that feels styled and intentional.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are peel and stick wall murals removable?
Yes. Our wall murals are removable, making them ideal for nurseries, kids rooms, rentals, and growing spaces.
Do wall murals work well in nurseries?
Absolutely. Wall Murals create a soft focal point and help make the room feel intentional and complete without needing excessive decor.
What’s the difference between wallpaper and a wall mural?
Wallpaper uses a repeating pattern, while a wall mural creates one larger-scale image or flowing design across the wall.
Are abstract wall murals good for kids rooms?
Yes. Abstract murals often feel more timeless and flexible than heavily themed designs, allowing the space to evolve as your child grows.
A Nursery Designed to Grow with the Space
One of the best things about using a mural in a nursery is that it creates a foundation for the entire room.
The right mural doesn’t just decorate the space, it helps shape the feeling of it.
With soft movement, layered colour, and an elevated abstract design, the Ophelia Wall Mural creates a nursery that feels calming, timeless, and beautifully personal.
