NIDO Design is a residential design studio producing modern private residences across the Pacific West from its base in the Okanagan Valley, British Columbia. We believe that building science is the invisible engine that unlocks ambitious design, without compromising comfort or livability.
Our Principles
Comfort, Silence, and Resilience
Our experience in a home reaches far beyond the visual and is shaped just as much by what lies beneath the surface: thermal comfort, pristine indoor air, and acoustic calm.
Material Honesty
Timeless forms and unadorned materials — wood, steel, concrete — left to age and weather as they are, as part of the landscape.
Proven, Not Promised
Every design starts with performance modeling, not guesswork. A glass-walled home can look striking and still be hard to live in: too hot in summer, too cold in winter, and costly to run. We model how the house will perform before it is drawn in detail, so beauty and comfort are designed together.
