Design. Create. Participate. Share.
Our vision
Designing with place.
Shaping its story.
COVOLV brings ecological design and documentary storytelling together to help place-based projects take shape and communicate what matters.
Permaculture informs our ecological design work. Our wider practice also includes destination storytelling, creative direction, documentary production, and hospitality experience for land, community, and destination projects.
We work with the conditions, people, and purpose already present in a place, then help shape a clear direction—from a permaculture-informed garden proposal to a film or visitor experience that makes the story tangible.

Consulting, shaped by permaculture.
Permaculture informs how we work: we map zones by how often people use each space, pair supportive plants in guilds, and shape closed loops that return rainwater and organic matter to the soil. In community projects, small local pods can share skills and resources.
Keyhole beds fit a circular planting area around a single access path, keeping plants within reach. A compost basket at the center can return kitchen and garden scraps to the bed.
Food forests layer a tall canopy, smaller trees, shrubs, herbs, groundcover, roots and climbing vines—chosen for the site's light, water, soil and people.
