"Whole Systems Design outlined a path toward success in opportunities we hadn’t yet identified.” ~Joshua Hahn, Ed. M., Harvard University, Asst. Dean, The Hotchkiss School

We develop human habitats - landscape and infrastructure systems - that yield perennial abundance and enduring value. These are adaptive, resilient and secure places in a future of peak oil, climate instability, and deepening economic insolvency.  See the Site Consultation page to learn about how our process begins.  We plan, develop, and manage land-based wealth preservation and security projects for those with the forethought to invest an abundance of present day resources to reduce their familly's vulnerability to future food, energy and other supply-chain disturbances, as well as peak-oil, climatic, economic and other events.

Regenerative Landscapes: Ben Falk, Whole Systems Design from TerraVisus on Vimeo.

We design and implement regenerative food, fuel, and shelter systems that operate on current solar energy.  These are homesteads, farms and schools fit for a challenging future of peak oil, climate change and economic transition.

Developing this solar infrastructure requires a multi-disciplinary approach integrating ecology, agriculture, architecture, and construction.  Our process and results are scalable from residential properties to neighborhoods to regions.

Using our network of professionals we work across all project phases from visioning and goals articulation to site selection, site planning and development, construction management, project communications, and research/education.  Our educational opportunities are delivered through Whole Systems Skills.

Our clients are proactively engaging a more resilient and enjoyable transition into the post-peak oil age.
