Ecological design is an approach to landscape design, installation and management that takes ecological processes and the relationships between people and nature into account.
Contact Us →Ecological design means working with nature. Our methods and techniques are inspired by ecological landscaping principles, permaculture design, whole systems thinking and pragmatism to create functional landscapes for people and our planet.
Our work spans the Garden Route- building indigenous gardens, food forests and sustainable water management systems- everything designed with the specific conditions of your land in mind.
Indigenous plantings that reduce maintenance, support pollinators, and build habitat that keeps improving over time.
Food systems designed to efficiently produce food crops while supporting ecology and increasing resilience.
Sustainable active and passive water management strategies for your home or business.
Our work emphasises our local and ecology and environment. We treasure the Garden Route and take pride in connecting people to our landscape.
