Cynthia's Terracotta Nursery
Baby's room
Pierre and Cynthia took the plunge: they quit their respective jobs to create an event decoration company they named La P'tite Cherry. With a "responsible decor" approach, they turned to us to repaint their baby's room in Madagascar terracotta.
Baby's room
Cynthia's word
"For each event, we enter your world while respecting nature. Recycle, invent, decorate, upcycle... With La P'tite Cherry, recycling is at the service of decoration. So we naturally turned to Algo to paint the baby's room, we wanted a healthy paint that respects the environment... and we really liked the Terracotta Madagascar shade!

Which terracotta should you choose for your baby's room?
There's no single answer to this question, as it depends on your personal taste and the decor of your nursery. However, it's generally recommended to choose light terracotta shades, as they're softer and more soothing for babies. It's also important to consider the brightness of the nursery and ensure the chosen color isn't too strong or overwhelming.
You can therefore opt for our Bréhat pink which brings a warm touch to the room because it is close to a light terracotta.
What color should you pair with terracotta in your baby's room?
Terracotta is a warm and soothing color that can create a soft and cozy atmosphere in a baby's room.
Here are some colors that go well with terracotta:
White: White can help balance the warmth of terracotta and make your nursery feel clean and fresh.
Beige: Beige is a natural and soothing color that pairs well with terracotta, creating a soft and relaxing atmosphere.
Green: Green is a color that can add a touch of freshness and serenity to a baby's room. Opt for soft, pale tones like mint green or sage green.
Pale pink: Pale pink can add a touch of softness and femininity to a nursery. Terracotta and pale pink make a harmonious and soothing combination.
Gray: Gray is a neutral and elegant color that pairs well with terracotta. It can add a touch of sophistication and tranquility to your baby's room.
Ultimately, the choice of colors will depend on your personal taste and the atmosphere you want to create in your baby's room. Feel free to experiment with different shades to find the combination that best suits your needs.
Which wall should I paint in terracotta in my baby's room?
When choosing a terracotta wall to paint in your baby's room, it's important to consider the size of the room and the effect you want to create. Here are some options to consider:
- Accent wall: If the nursery is small, painting a single wall in terracotta can be enough to create a focal point and add color and warmth to the room. It's best to choose the most visible wall, such as the wall behind the crib or the wall opposite the front door.
- The main wall: If the nursery is large, you may want to consider painting a larger wall in terracotta to create a warm, inviting atmosphere. In this case, choose the main wall, the one where the crib is located, to create a contrasting effect.
- Upper walls: If you want to add a subtle pop of color to the nursery, you can paint the upper walls terracotta. This can help add depth and warmth to the room without being too overpowering.
