Glad you found us! At Lew Oliver Nest, our charge is to design artful communities in balance with nature. Energy efficient, small footprint homes are lighter on the planet. By knitting together designs into real communities, emphasis is placed on the collective quality of place. Partnering with local town builders, our homes are crafted of authentic materials and built using traditional rule-of-thumb methods.
