After growing up in front of the world, Lindsay Lohan is currently preparing to become a mother for the first time. Naturally, that means creating a peaceful space that her child will be able to call their own in the Dubai home she shares with her husband of one year, financier Bader Shammas. Lohan, who shot to fame playing identical twins in the 1998 film The Parent Trap when she was just 12 years old, partnered with Nestig to design not only the nursery, but a small collection of adorable products all inspired by the calming nature of the sea.
“I feel so peaceful by the ocean—I wanted to create a space where my little one and I could share in that feeling,” says Lohan, who hails from Long Island, New York, and spent her teens and early twenties navigating Hollywood before eventually moving abroad to escape the relentless pursuit of paparazzi. After stints in London and Mykonos, she settled in Dubai, where, thanks to strict privacy laws, paparazzi don’t exist. And though the first thing that comes to mind when one thinks of the Middle Eastern city may be glassy skyscrapers, a recent Allure cover story featuring Lohan reveals that she’s found her way back to her oceanside roots, living in a villa near the turquoise waters of the Persian Gulf.
