Building You need a classroom, meeting space, yoga studio, home office or house? Contact us! Meet the true needs of your people and place through unique, distinct, beautiful, healthy, comfortable and sustainable spaces. Benefit from the fusion of the best of traditional, low-impact building techniques and modern technologies. Contract our Eco Building services and we can design and build for you next generation buildings that: * Require no more maintenance than the conventional approach. * Offer a unique fusion of rammed earth walls and domes (our specialty!) and other sound and sustainable materials such as adobe, super adobe and cob. * Are supported by years of building experience, finished with integrity and within the set timeframe. We work with licensed architects to meet codes and provide the necessary technical drawings for the build. Why do we love domes? Simply because domes are strong, spacious and healing structures that have been created for thousands of years! The advantage of spheres is that no separate roof structure is required, saving time and money and resulting in a building of unique beauty that lasts for the seventh generation. |

In practical terms this means that we can design for you successful solutions, such as companion planting, seeds saving, compost making and soil care that can bring regeneration and abundance to your site. * We design in diversity in order to create stability. We establish integrated systems, such as trees, predator habitats and areas for people to reflect and relax in the beauty of nature. * We can enhance biodiversity and help you manage your water for maximum benefit, providing the ideal conditions for vigorous and nutritious plants. * We can design a logical framework for implementation that will ensure less maintenance and saved resources in the long term. |
Water
Security Secure water in your project and you will secure life. Water is the basis of all life and the backbone of sound land-based design. Contact us and we can design and implement the necessary solutions to bring water security to your project or community. This is how we do it! * Earth works - A major element in securing water and a great place to start from on larger projects, giving you productive and fertile edges to expand from. Well-implemented earth works offer the necessary conditions for highly productive systems (including animals, food forests, ally cropping, placement of future buildings and appropriate access). Through earth works, we work with natural contours to sculpt your land, eliminating erosion and catching and storing water through passive harvesting. The success and evaluation of our work in different countries gives us confidence and the necessary experience to design, plan and execute swift, yet accurate, earth works. * Water tanks - an easy practical solution to store water. We can advise you on the design, placement and build or build it for you. * Composting toilets - are key in reducing water needs. We can design and/or build for you beautiful, easy to maintain toilets that eventually provide a rich source of fertilizer. * Grey water systems – save and reuse water by cleansing it. We can design and/or implement for you systems that mimic nature and assist you in vastly reducing the risk of droughts, giving your project the ability to move into abundance. |
