Nest Design & Build

Creating beautiful spaces which enhance the way you Live | Eat | Bathe | Relax Nest is first and foremost a kitchen, bathroom and build design business.

However, through the commissions we’ve engaged in over the years, this focus has evolved into the design and fitting of everything from the smallest bathroom through to the complete construction of new homes and gardens. Our passion lies in helping clients to feel a sense of excitement every time they walk into their home, proudly sharing these new spaces with family and friends. We’ll translate how you want to live, relax and eat into real life visualisations that allow you to ‘see’ the space before a brick is even laid. From our first ever commission to our latest, each design has been completely bespoke. Our team includes a creative director and all associated trades, who have worked together for many years, whether directly employed or through long term relationships as trusted partners. Where desired, we’re able to collaborate with specialist trades such as architects and garden designers. Each commission is allocated a project leader and, working with specialist quantity surveyors where required, our aim is to create your perfect space with an absolute focus on cost control. Clear, transparent pricing is key to our success at keeping clients happy, reflected in the glowing recommendations we’ve received over the years.

The Ghost of Pembroke Road

Long before Clifton became the elegant neighbourhood we know today, this very road had a far darker reputation…

Back in the 18th century, murderous highwaymen stalked its shadows, and the area was once known as Gallow’s Acre Lane – a chilling reminder of the public executions that took place on nearby Clifton Downs.

Among those condemned was Jenkins Protheroe, a notorious dwarf highwayman, who met his grisly end at the gallows in 1783.

But some say his story didn’t end with his execution…

On misty evenings, when the fog creeps across the Downs and the streets fall silent, a ghostly figure is said to climb down from the old gallows.

Could it be Protheroe, still wandering the road where his life came to a brutal end?

Next time you walk or jog up Pembroke Road on a foggy night… perhaps don’t look too closely into the shadows. 🕯️

A new project is underway in Henleaze, Bristol!

We’re kicking off a substantial renovation and loft conversion, transforming this property from top to bottom.
With the scaffolding now in place, we’re getting ready for some significant structural changes.

The project includes:
▪️ A new loft conversion, creating a master bedroom with ensuite, complete with sliding doors and a Juliet balcony.
▪️ A reconfigured ground floor, creating a new open-plan kitchen, dining and living space.
▪️ A new snug area, alongside improvements to the utility room.
▪️ A redesigned family bathroom, plus a new ground-floor WC.
▪️ Structural alterations and a new rear dormer, finished with contemporary cladding.
There’s plenty of work ahead, and we’re looking forward to sharing the transformation as it progresses.
Follow along to see this project take shape, from the initial structural works through to the finished spaces.

Thinking of extending your home? Here are five things worth considering before you start.

Think beyond simply adding more space. What’s not working in your home now, and how would you like it to look, feel and function in the future?

Bigger isn’t always better. Sometimes a clever reconfiguration of your existing layout can transform how your home looks, feels and functions — without needing to extend as much as you first imagined.

Understanding your overall budget from the outset helps shape the design. Think about where you’d like to invest, what matters most to you and the importance of allowing for unexpected costs.

Every home is different. Planning requirements, neighbouring properties, existing structures and site conditions can all influence what’s possible and help shape the design.

A beautiful design is only part of the picture. Considering construction methods and structural requirements helps ensure your ideas can become a reality.

With our team of architects and designers we are here ready to ask the questions. Some you will expect some you won’t. All will leave you in the best place possible to achieve your dream extension.

Whether you’re ready to start planning or simply gathering inspiration, save this post for later, or drop us a message.

Not going to lie, there are LOADS of decisions for you to make when renovating your home. That’s why we work tirelessly in the background, making sure you can spend your time choosing the products you love, rather than worrying about the logistics of when they’ll be delivered, where they’ll be stored safely, and ensuring they’re there ready for the trades on the day they need them.
