Survey: Would You Sleep in Human Nest?

Here on Apartment Therapy, we talk a lot about ways to make your bedroom a serene and comfortable place. But July is Escapes Month and this would definitely be an escape from anyone's everyday life! We should say that this is not any nest. This nest is located at Treebones in the Big Sur, California. Before you vote, you need to check out the view...

The Treebones Resort in Big Sur has 16 yurts, a guesthouse, campground, and... the human nest! The nest was created by artist Jayson Fann of Big Sur Spirit Garden. If you're nervous about sleeping in a nest, you can "rent the space" for an hour or so to hang out and channel your inner bird!

I couldn't sleep there - might be ok to hang out.

I could definitely sleep there. Or at least I'd try to sleep! I would probably be way too excited!

The concept is great and so is the view.

Not only would I spend the night but I would do so wearing a pelican costume. This would not only provide the full nest effect but the beak would also act as a safe place to store my snacks.

I am going out to the back yard woods and building one in a tree. I will put a mattress inside. I will sleep there until it snows.

I think the same artist did a similar installation in front of SF city hall - when they went up I always wondered what it'd be like to live in one of those - now I may get to find out!
