The vision behind the Nest House became a reality through the combined efforts of our remarkable collaborators. In this blog, we focus on the contributions of the architectural, engineering, and construction professionals—our “design and structural team”—who played a pivotal role in turning this concept into a living, sustainable space. We are grateful for their dedication, expertise, and shared passion for innovation.

Buro Happold: The Engineering Pillars
Buro Happold’s engineering consultancy was crucial to the Nest House’s structural integrity. They carefully planned and implemented the necessary support systems, ensuring that the house was safe and efficient. Their technical expertise reinforced the sustainability principles at the heart of the project. We invite you to look at the short video and see a short summary of Nest House project with Buro Happold country director Niels Elliot Brochner here! Buro Happold are experts in their field who are working and have experience with innovative and sustainable projects which requires a lot of attention to detail and expertise. We recommend you to read their blog which explores the potential for bio-based materials like timber and straw to become mainstream in construction. It highlights both benefits, such as reduced carbon emissions, and challenges, including limited supply, regulatory issues, and changing perceptions about performance and durability.
DSV Transport: The Green Movers
DSV Transport played a key role in ensuring the materials and components of the Nest House were delivered safely and sustainably. Using biodiesel-powered vehicles, they managed the logistics precisely, helping us keep our environmental impact low.
Together, these partners formed the backbone of the Nest House’s design and structural execution. Their collaborative efforts turned this project into a reality, bringing innovation, sustainability, and craftsmanship to the forefront.
