ARTECOLOGY


The environment we build shapes the lives we live


ARTECOLOGY The environment we build shapes the lives we live. Public policy, National Indicators and the metrics of sustainability demand a new connection between the built and natural worlds. Artecology makes that connection, enriching construction, engineering and architecture, for people and for wildlife.


The global focus on coastal defence is urgent and essential


COAST The global focus on coastal defence is urgent and essential, but inevitably impacts upon marine ecosystems and the livelihoods, settlements and industries that they support. Artecology is delivering solutions. We work with UK universities and research councils to develop bioreceptive installations we call Vertipools, capable of delivering proven gains for habitats, species and coastal communities.

Our watercourses are vital networks


RIVERS Our watercourses are vital networks, for industry, recreation and biodiversity. We use ecological design to bring together differing demands so that they can work together, beautifully and efficiently. Our BioTiles create striking fish-passes, improve freshwater invertebrate faunas, make nest sites for birds and mammals, support colonising aquatic flora and build new educational value and public interest.


Urban ecosystems can City/Urban Photo enrich human wellbeing


CITY Urban ecosystems can enrich human wellbeing. Our methods transform architecture, gardens, rooftops and streetscapes into networks of positive change. We can build Natural Capital for any development and add bioreceptive design to any masterplan. Artecology makes vibrant public spaces and biologically favourable environments, for people and wildlife.
