Whole Systems Design LLC
Info
We design and develop learning landscapes and inspirational settings. We plan and install sustainable food systems such as edible landscapes and ecological agricultural systems. We design and construct garden buildings and biologically-integrated hardscapes. We also integrate water, heating, cooling and electrical systems within site developments. We aim to design places so that lines between the 'human' and the 'natural' disappear. Our practice is a systems approach to developing whole human habitats (integrated landscape-building systems). Our approach synthesizes ecology, landscape architecture, site development, construction, farming, education and other disciplines. We find that human habitats are more vibrant through connecting, not dividing, the elements which compose a place; people-plants-buildings-sunshine-energy-water-wildlife. Ecosystems are our model as we work with a diverse array of clientele in the creation of more natural, integrated, cost effective and joyful human settlements. Although all too rare, we believe that integrated spaces are common sense and that they are fundamental to our health and to our collective future. They're also a lot more beautiful and enjoyable.
