Sophisticating Baby

Infant aesthetics go from cartoonish to chic

Implications - Minimalist baby design speaks to a happy medium between the popular fad-based, Internet-heavy infant aesthetic, and the classic cartoonish, childlike look of animal-inspired, pastel-hued pieces. This more sophisticated look accommodates the need for something modern and age appropriate, yet still fitting to an adult aesthetic.
Workshop Question - What would it look like if you were to give your existing offerings an aspirational, Internet-friendly makeover?
