About Us
Close your eyes and picture the perfect kid-friendly home.
Every parent dreams of creating the optimal environment for their kids, an abode of color, a space of beauty and wonder, a castle in the clouds. But as I’m sure you know, kids, can be quite finicky when it comes to their likes and dislikes. What they are obsessed with one year soon becomes forgotten as they age and their tastes evolve. And what started off as the perfect playroom or kids bedroom ends up being an odd collection of mismatched pieces and a hodgepodge of different design elements.
Our kids are tiny little humans, they’re just like us, stimulated by great design and colorful sculpted surroundings. My little balls of inspiration (and perspiration), Nicolas and Celeste (Nico & Yeye) sparked in me a vision, a vision of mini masterpieces, of style, function and flexibility that would stand the test of time and any short-lived toddler obsession. I thought to myself, why did we have to choose? Why couldn’t a home be both kid-friendly and stylishly coordinated at the same time? So, I resolved to utilize my years working as a designer in the children’s industry, to put my experience, love and dedication to the test to solve this dilemma.
Nico & Yeye is about creating simple elegant children’s furnishings with a healthy splash of creative color. Furniture that scaled up, would work just as well for you. Bedroom furnishings, playroom pieces and activating art that adapts and grows alongside your little loved ones.
We offer cool furnishings that flow with the feel of your home, that fit your and their aesthetic. Pieces lovingly created that allow kids to make their own mark in their own space, that nourish the roots of creativity and imaginative play.
