Nested Living is a bespoke interior design and making studio in Oxfordshire specialising in interior design for homes and commercial spaces. Guided by regenerative principles, we design and craft interiors that support well-being, longevity, and a deeper connection to place.

Our work brings together interior design, architectural thinking, and making creating spaces that are carefully considered, responsibly made, and designed to endure.

Our Approach to Interior Design

Our approach to interior design is rooted in seeing interiors as living systems rather than static compositions. We consider proportion, flow, materiality, and use together shaping spaces that support everyday life, well-being, and long-term adaptability.

Guided by regenerative principles, we design interiors to endure beyond trends, using materials and making methods that respect people, place, and the wider environment. The result is spaces that feel calm, coherent, and deeply connected to how they are lived in.

Working in Collaboration with Architects

Our projects often sit at the intersection of interior architecture, interior design, and making. Where architectural services are required, we collaborate closely with trusted architects and consultants ensuring each project is well coordinated, technically sound, and aligned with the wider design intent.

This collaborative approach allows each discipline to contribute its expertise while maintaining a clear, shared vision for the whole.

How We Work

Our work unfolds through a collaborative, design-and-make process rooted in care, craft, and long-term thinking.

Discover

We begin by understanding people, place, and purpose listening carefully to how a space is lived in or used, reading the building and its context, and exploring what really matters before solutions are defined.

Co-Create

Design develops through close collaboration. We shape spatial layouts, material choices, and detailed joinery in dialogue with clients, architects, and consultants, ensuring each decision strengthens both function and feeling.

Nurture

Making, installation, and aftercare are treated as part of the same continuum. Our interiors are designed to be cared for, adapted, and supported over time allowing spaces to evolve while retaining their integrity.

Bespoke Interiors, Kitchens, Furniture & Joinery

We design and make bespoke elements as part of a cohesive interior architecture approach, including:

  • Bespoke kitchens designed for longevity and everyday use

  • Interior architecture and spatial design

  • Bespoke furniture and architectural joinery

  • Commercial and workplace interiors where quality, durability, and material integrity matter

Each element is designed as part of a wider whole, rather than as an isolated product.

Who We Work With

We work with a range of clients and collaborators, including:

  • Private residential clients

  • Architects and interior designers

  • Developers and project teams

  • Design-led commercial and workplace clients

Whether working directly with clients or as part of a wider design team, we bring clarity, care, and craft to every collaboration.

Selected Projects

Our work spans residential and commercial interiors, with projects that reflect our commitment to thoughtful design, making, and long-term value.

We believe that all good design starts from the inside out. The constraints of a building and vision for the project, all have a unique design and character which requires a bespoke approach to ensure it’s success.
