calm architecture

we think this is quite possibly the most peaceful place in canberra.
nestled in the gallery gardens, this space settles even the most restless mind.
so if we are not answering our phones you will most likely find us here....

decoration and design notes

the standout at decoration and design for nest was, without question, the fabrics.

our favourites were the weird and wonderful collection at emily ziz and the beautiful imports from Martyn Lawrence  Bullard who was there in person and rather glamorous etc.

special mention: the collection of understated timber lamps and chandeliers we discovered (images below) .... just simple, architectural forms with no fancy fabrics or shiny finishes required.

looking forward to bringing these designs to spaces in the capital!

brassed off

where has summer gone? or did it ever arrive?
with afternoons filled with dramatic looking clouds and it threatening to rain constantly, the nest office has been drawn to the warmth of copper and brass this faux-summer.
copper is frequently showing up in blogs and magazines and it seems that all our favourite designers are working with the humble material.  Check out below....
