Sustenance of the idea is our key mission and thereby, for large public service projectas, we chooses to demonstrate through smaller achievable pilot projects and micro interventions that are easy to realise, sustain and maintain in line with client economics.
With ecological footprints, Living Roots has enhanced parts of the urban environment and its living conditions. We takes up the urban voids, public places adn private properties in the city and transforms them into functional community landscapes of bio-diverse species, re-establishing the missing eco-system linkages, multi-layered organic vegetation and rain water catchment basins, supported by the natural system of healing and harvesting. Such ecological landscapes thrive on well-researched native potent vegetation palette, are low on maintenance, are budget conscious, developed by 100% organic soil preparation methods and thereby in turn, replenish the mother earth...
