Oikos Ecological Solutions

The Oikos: Ecological Solutions Blog documents the journey of our small eco-enterprise, using ecological design principles and biophilic approaches to human spaces. By bridging between architecture, landscape and community we can change the way we interact with the environment. Climate action and regenerative design is our way forward and we bring all our experience in wildlife, greening, and ecological technologies to solve the problems we face collectively today.

As with all #livinglandscapes, #growth takes time, but once it starts, the whole job becomes #efficient and #welltimed maintenance to get to a #properjungle that is visually interesting and #appealing, besides having the #ecologicalservices which are built in by #oikoses anyway. Been fun working on this space @diamirzaofficial. #biodiversity #naturemerge #colourpop #animalattraction #callinginthewild #butterflygarden #nectar #cherrytomato #plants #edibles #instagood #urbanecology #greencorridor #rewilding #birdattractingplants

As they start to develop, these cocoons are starting to become translucent, and you can actually #seethebutterfly inside. Almost time for #emergence. #butterflygarden #pupae #colorchange #almostthere #butterflylifecycle #follow #biology #oikoses #wildlife #landscape #rooftopfarm #ecology

So sweet having these #dog #companions come by and hang out with us as we worked on a late night #steampasteurization run. Just beginning the setup of a small #mushroomgrowing operation. Fingers crossed! #fungalist #overgrowthesystem #edibles #medicinals #bioremediators #oystermushroom

About Me

Gautam Muralidharan
I'm very much a people person. I just prefer plants and music more. I guess music people and plant people are somewhere in between.
