Our DESIGN FOCUS is to bring your goals and nature’s intelligence into greater balance, one garden at a time! Here are the tools and steps we use:

Your Landscape Design project may include:

• Initial Consultation (complimentary)

• Private Website Page URL (info accessible in one place)

• Conceptual consultation/s to confirm aesthetic preferences, functional needs, budget, schedule, and details

• Site Observations, Measurements, Specifications

• 2D Color Layout (digital design) + 2-3 revisions (additional available)

• Plant List with Reference Pictures and species-specifics

• Material lists with Reference Pictures and annotations

• Optional: Integrated base-map layers: Permaculture Elements, Bioregional rehabilitation, Microclimate Requirements, + Site specific influences

• Strategic ideas, resource links, recommendations

• Vendor recommendations

• Service provider referrals

• Curated 3rd-party-professional youtube videos for how-to and inspiration

EVERY PROJECT IS CUSTOM

You’ll receive helpful guidance to clarify goals and expectations and a sequence of what to expect. We begin with gathering our data through simple observations and research, followed by a conversation with you to review the spatial layout, and suggested native plant list. We then work with your feedback and complete or develop the plan. For larger projects a compilation of layers may be prepared.

Your Conceptual Design phase may include:

• Site Observations + Analysis

• Listing Goals and focal-points

• Sketches, doodles, or basic reference drawings

• Digital mock up of ideas

From Dream To Concept…

This phase is essentially the VISION BOARD for your landscape. Creating a Design starts with the feeling that brings you excitement and inspiration for something fresh. We help translate that positive feeling into corresponding visual and spatial references that will actualize your dreams.

A DESIGN CONCEPT is the first real imagination phase useful to hone desired spatial layout and gestalt references. The focus here is all about laying foundations of form, functionality, and use of space, not so much what it will look like yet. The purpose is to find the optimal relationships between various spaces in the landscape, as well as between the landscape and the existing home or environment, and also between those who use the space and the environment. We may use circles, bubbles, or swaths to indicate areas we are dreaming into being. Think outside the box, follow your hunches, imagine movement, experience, exploration and discovery. We ask which of our inspired concepts solve the identified needs or satisfy your preferences most elegantly, most originally, and most efficiently.

• Considering use of space, and new ideas

• Accounting for microclimate, elements, neighborhood or natural influences

• Listing challenges and possible solutions

• Dreaming new spaces into being

Developing Your Design…

HONE YOUR CONCEPT: This phase provides you with iterations or revisions of your design for a fuller and more detailed development of your desired direction from the initial concept. Reference pictures for plants, materials, custom features, or additional research are also explored. We provide a recommended plant list with botanical names and reference pictures, as well as suggested materials if applicable. Specific elements and select layers highlight different relevant features including: structures, utilities, soft/hardscape, irrigation, lighting, permaculture principles, usage, etc.

“We were able to confirm our preferences every step of the way and the yard now looks stunning thanks to the plan.” — Adam & Miriam

YOU CAN NOW JOIN OUR EXCITING NEW COURSE WITH A SYSTEMS -LEVEL INTEGRATION OF PERSPECTIVE + PRACTICE

We now offer rEV Design™: a revolutionary values-based approach to sustainable living, ecological design, and earth guardianship. Our course is currently held live at Geoflower Farm in Boulder Colorado for residents who live nearby or who travel and stay at an Air BnB while attending. Lets get an overview of what’s involved and who this is for…

First and foremost, we recognize ourselves at sovereign beings, learning and practicing self love, kindness and compassion to all living things. Second and equal to the first, we know ourselves to be earth guardians and more locally, guardians of the land. To be an earth guardian is to recognize that all life is connected. It is to be interested in those connections, in the intricacies and various components, the living systems all very multi-dimensional, alive, and real. We are motivated to live and to act from a place of mindfulness, compassion, responsiveness and care toward all living things, grounded in the health and well being of our unique embodiment of consciousness, our responsibility to our environments, our respect and care of natural elements, animals, humans, and self. We also respond lovingly with respect and healthy boundaries to all other forms of life that we may perceive, multi-dimensional or cosmic, astral or angelic, as we do with everything around us with which we are familiar or not.

So now, how does a great purpose and mission like this embody the element of design? Design in this regard means that we are learning how to embrace nature’s patterns or best interests in harmony with humanity’s.

To understand Self as Nature and nature as self. As above; so below. This can be demonstrated through study, understanding, learning, and the practice of integrating a unified understanding from the many approaches we encounter. For example, biodynamics, regenerative agriculture, native landscapes, permaculture projects, ecological planning, geomancy, even understanding the electrical magnetism of earth’s lay lines and how subtle energy fields are generated and harnessed by sunlight and natural elements in motion. Add to this a broad level understanding of astrology, Human Design, astro cartography, a metaphysical view of time and space, grand cycles, seasons, and sacred geometry, a cultural study of values, lineages, lifestyles, spiritual beliefs, and an esoteric understanding of chakras, worldviews and dimensions, and nonlocal resonance. 

In this way, what it means to engage rEV Design, is to engage design from a perspective of layered or multi-dimensional values that can change our perspective, our worldview, our daily habits… even our identity. For when we activate change within ourselves, in so doing the world around us changes. Life is, after all, a unification of wholes, each person a perspective, each collective a gestalt, and each epoch a lifetime in the ever unfolding cosmic story. What story are we telling now?

Using a breakthrough method of coherent overlays from various design perspectives, and deep vision both within and afar, rEvolutionary design is taking bold new steps to equip people and groups of all ages and walks of life — from children, to garden enthusiasts, homeowners, land workers, community builders, healers, and environmental leaders of many roles— with the education and tools necessary to be able to make necessary changes in response to today’s challenges and uplifting choices for our future. Each person who chooses to be an earth guardian in this sense creates a ripple effect in support of implementing more sustainable and regenerative solutions in this time of global transformation.

One of our core leaders, and program founder, Rebecca is an experienced rEV Designer™, engaging forward thinking and experiential projects and classes to expand this balance of wisdom and heart. She and her colleagues specialize in custom projects for environmentally conscious businesses and non profits such as native landscape and garden design as well as cutting edge initiatives to increase earth awareness and education. It all comes down to each individual’s capacity for sovereignty. With a group of such individuals, we are prepared to experiment in making exponential change possible.

How does rEvolutionary Design™ work?

FOR BUSINESS

The rEvolution begins for businesses by bringing respect for the environment and ecology to the forefront of client awareness through (a) sustainable ecology or landscape design, (b) promoting and working with sustainable vendors and policy makers where appropriate, and (c) by prioritizing the health of the land as significant to property value — as defined by mindful homeowners and realtors.

Financial and many other interdependent methods of exchange determine how we re-define property value as a collective. To promote and up-level how we value our relationship between ecology and economy, we:

√ start new conversations

√ design or build sustainable solutions

√ promote new perspectives

√ make sustainable connections

√ introduce biodiversity

√ offer symbiotic features

√ promote education

√ foster cooperation

 Each of these areas of attention is designed to inspire new goals by honoring the wisdom of nature and working with new and changing methods and technologies to meet the future. 

FOR EDUCATION

The rEvolution begins in terms of education through learning how to balance our inner environment, in other words self awareness, with our outer environment, meaning the work we do with nature, be that agriculture, landscaping, building, or planning. By bringing our inner and outer ‘natures’ into sync, we begin an empowering conversation with the world around us, propelling us forward with a personal clarity and a group momentum fueled by aligned values that defies most current forms of environmental thought. We foster wisdom and practices that can identify true environmental needs, balance those with human lifestyle or intentions, and that can implement the necessary perception and actions that honor and value our relationship with the natural world and all its components and relations. We offer classes, immersions, series, and events for individuals and groups of all ages and walks of life.

Our Essential Training Series

With rEvolutionary Design™

Design To Make A Difference

rEvolutionary Design offers a trademarked certificate program, online and on-site in Boulder, CO, that trains and embodies today’s most forward thinking and empowered community members and regenerative leaders.

Our process includes implementing a simple yet effective process that leverages key tools, practices, and wisdom for both internal and environmental benefit. The basis of our program is founded on a unique blend of progressive worldview in the area of regenerative social values (integrative psychology), progressive philosophy (Steiner, Permaculture, and more), and embodied perception (shamanic environmental awareness).

Our methodology for this program features breakthrough practices easily applicable across a spectrum of current situations from ethical ecological solutions, to community design, and consumer education, as well as sampling successful takeaways among a broad range of inter-dependent industries from bio-dynamic farming to social cohesion, and better green business development.

Participants take the program as a journey, learning self-growth patterns, and eventually leadership strategies. The overall effect is to become self activated, where one more easily attracts constituents aligned with one’s values for greater synergy and efficiency, can manage team and projects from a place of authentic sovereignty, and aligns multidisciplinary goals with integrity.

Through certified rEV™ Design work, long term benefits are as key as immediate steps. Participants are guided through a growth track customized to help support their unique goals and ability, highlighting self-awareness practices, interpersonal skills, honing techniques for learned skills of trade and/or business, and team building, cultivating the courage and foresight to make changes in their industry, and standing up for green values even where habituated attitudes or policy may be undervaluing the importance of timely action.

Seamlessly integrated into the program, each participant actively engages in chosen mindfulness practices to maintain the best version of themselves and their trade. Together, we choose to co-create a world where values such as symbiosis and compassionate awareness are re-defining community values, work ethic, and carving out a fresh path for healthy living connections in our lifestyles, industries, and around the globe.

Who Are Our rEvolutionary Designers?

Representing a purpose-driven collective, rEvolutionary Designers™ are intentionally committed to becoming new leaders demonstrating progressive ecological and social change. rEV Design™ is embraced by those who seek to evolve themselves and to redefine their core mission or approach to life, community, and work as a way to come into harmony with the ecology of the planet with its diverse elements and inhabitants. An essential part of this new approach offers steps to integrate interior awareness and culture with the result of finding a greater balance within and recognizing how that is intricately supportive of and connected to the world outside. In this way, aligned intentions that ring true from deep in our core can become a lighthouse of regenerative empowerment around us. As Nicola Tesla recognized that, “if you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency, and vibration,” rEv Design™ acknowledges that our emotional alignment and heart passions, when holistically directed, can exponentially boost the structure of our authentic green initiatives, for effective collaborative and global rEvolution. rEV Design™ has gained niche popularity in Boulder, Colorado, from which founder Rebecca currently works.
