Adaptable and Safe Baby Furniture Prototypes
Could your changing table and high chairs be safer? French designers Frank & Stanimira Rafaschieri think so. They've created two children's furniture prototypes that address the inherent safety issues of two daily tasks of parenting - feeding and changing diapers. These prototypes show designs that are thoughtful of the developmental stages of a child's growth and abilities, which may sensibly result in less accidents when placing children at unsafe heights.

Oeuf's Sparrow Crib Goes Natural Birch
Oeuf's nursery furniture line has always been eco-friendly from using sustainable material resources, environmentally-friendly manufacturing practices, and non-toxic finishes. After success last year with their painted Sparrow nursery furniture line, Oeuf has introduced an all-natural birch crib addition to the collection. For those parents who put off buying the affordable Sparrow crib because of the grey, white, or pink color finishes, they can now consider a beautiful natural birch finish. Available in April 2008.
