About - Nest Design Studio

Established in 2010 specialising in children’s rooms, Nest has evolved to become a multidisciplinary design studio. Sourcing and curating products that fit the style and personality of their clients, Nest has developed a reputation for delivering rooms that you will want to live in, and love.

Our projects are collaborative and personalised to each client and we create customised design solutions to achieve a home that reflects the owners. With a classic, yet modern signature style, our interiors are not only beautiful but practical – and always with a down to earth and playful twist!

From selecting key pieces that bring a room together through to a full design service for both residential and commercial clients, Nest Design Studio offers a variety of options that will suit any need and budget.
