The Nest is a quiet escape perched atop a 20-year-old home in Surat — a 620 sq. ft. space designed as a bedroom and terrace retreat that brings the outdoors in. Once just the uppermost floor of a family house, it has since transformed into a warm, minimal, and deeply personal space.
Inspired by the softness and simplicity of a bird’s nest, the room is surrounded by lush greenery and topped with a bamboo roof. Natural light pours in through wide openings, giving the feeling of sleeping in the middle of a garden.
Built using just three materials, this “house on a house” follows an ethos of restraint and connection. The design avoids overcrowding, instead embracing breathing space and calm. The terrace garden blurs the line between architecture and landscape — offering shade, softness, and birdsong.
Elements of tradition are layered gently: a metallic, self-printed fabric with mango motifs adds a cultural memory, while long-stored Jaisalmer stone is repurposed into a custom wall mural.
Completed in October 2022, The Nest reflects a thoughtful balance — modern in function, rooted in nature, and built for quiet joy.
