25.01.2022 "If you get into debt buying your child branded trainers, if you fear redundancy, if you suffer anxiety about the future of the planet and you blame yourself fo...r all of these things then you are showing symptoms of drowning in the insidious and sinister ideology of #neoliberalism. The escalating environmental and social crises that confront us - climate breakdown, collapse in biodiversity, the threat of war - are all failures of a worldview that puts profit making, the markets and economic growth ahead of human happiness. This is the George Monbiot prognosis. "

16.01.2022 Open house day coming up this Sunday Join us...

11.01.2022 Open House Event at 23 Bent St - Sunday 6th October 12pm: Biophilic Environment Last week a pair of brush turkeys started to build their mound in our back lane. The male bird basically ‘stole’ a lot of mulch from the neighbour uphill, and scratched it all down into the lane, below a tree that provides the shade they need.... I hope the neighbour does not mind and lets them stay there. With the shrinking of their habitat, brush turkeys have been moving into urban backyards. It will be interesting to see how they go in our back lane. City of Hope is designed to include elements that nurture the innate human/nature connection. This was one of the main ‘must do’ items of the initial brief and lies at the core of this project. Connection with nature must be experienced, lived and understood. This has been realised in the design of the gardens, vertical gardens and roof gardens, in the selection of materials like the Valla Granite for retaining walls and steps. Now the connection is nurtured daily tending to the gardens as well as in a more passive way by just looking out the window, enjoying the play of sunlight on the leaves and plants swaying in the wind and birds feeding on the nectar of the grevilleas. And of course, by just stepping out from the kitchen to pick a few greens for lunch. Or sitting on the roof garden at night, watching the stars and following the path of the moon. Eggs should take 50 days to hatch. I’ll let you know if we see little chicks hatching.
