Ecological Design
Ecological design offers numerous benefits, blending aesthetics with environmental stewardship.
It promotes biodiversity by incorporating native plants that support local wildlife, such as birds and pollinators. This design approach also enhances soil health, reduces the need for chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and minimizes water usage through efficient irrigation and rainwater harvesting techniques.
Most importantly, ecological landscape design fosters a harmonious relationship between human habitation and the natural world, creating sustainable and resilient environments.
