The ‘Nest’ aims to subtly transmit family values and beliefs to future generations. This project is exclusively designed, and customized for client Mr. Chirag Patel and his family (4 people in all). The house is built in Bodeli taluka, and it’s called mini Mumbai because of many businesses. The client preferred to live in town away from the hustle and bustle of the city life as the place offered a strong sense of community with peaceful environment.

Elevation
In the ever-evolving world of architectural design, a remarkable trend has emerged – the fusion of modernity and timeless charm through exposed brickwork and natural terracotta jail bricks. This residence that beautifully incorporates the rustic allure of exposed brick, creating a harmonious blend of old-world warmth and contemporary elegance.

Inside foyer has a veneer paneling around the door extended to living room with a deer figure embossed in MDF and PU finish. This serves as the centerpiece of the house which showcases welcoming ambiance.


Living Room
What sets this living room apart is the idea of creating a living space that breathes – the space that is both fresh and inviting. When you enter into this inviting living space your attention naturally gravitates towards the TV wall.

The flooring – Italian natural stone embraces the overall, tranquility and balance of the living area which is a perfect retreat for relaxation and entertainment.
