Wildlifeel at Home

Designing homes that allow wildlife to keep theirs too; fighting local to global habitat loss from my off-grid cabin in the PNW woods.

Trees out my cabin's window and ...are they glowing? I think they're glowing...

It's so quiet at the cabin tonight. Except for a deer I can hear walking on crunchy leaves. This is all I've actually wanted.

Yes, we are both working hard outside. And yes, we are following the sun spots in the yard to keep warm.

Easy to turn inward when life gets busy. But #wildlife needs us most when we feel we have the least to give. Life won't calm down enough for #conservation to fit in so we build it into the rhythm. Not what we do when all is done, but woven into daily choices. Wildlife can't wait; neither should we.

I've tried over and over again for *years* to have a new fav coffee table book. But nothing beats this guy. Its become that fav song that just cannot be beat by another. Please tell me I'm not alone here. What's been your coffee table book for longer than you'd like to admit?

Good view from the coop tonight. These two really do make me a better lady :) I like seeing life through their eyes.

For those who needed a smirk today (like me), here's a wee little chicken egg from a happy ol' lady hen + some evidence of picking countless blackberries today. We reward egg efforts around here ;) Not too bad on the stained fingers front.

No mow May has been well extended over here. 💚 seeing the variety of native plants, the colors & what they each do throughout the #season. Hybrid the hen thinks it's cool too. (Don't worry, she & her friends have paths & natural clearings. She just likes adventure outings into the huge #meadow!)

I don't know what I'd do if I wasn't surrounded by nature all the time. I'd certainly be a lot less curious, inspired, grateful and grounded. ...And don't even get me started about the smell of the forest after it rains.

Can you imagine what it first felt like to be here listening to this? Late @ night, here in a makeshift cabin, in the middle of nowhere? 😳
Can you guess who is talking out there?
Hint: nowadays it's completely normal, often but at least not scary. Ohh this life.. 🤭

Sometimes the loosey-goosey sketches done outside with the birds really are how the best ideas flow.

Most homes displace life.
Few ever find out what was lost.
If you work to defend wildlife, your build shouldn’t undo it all.

Shadow here believes if the sun comes out after days of rain, it's time to stop working. Time to start weeding. Happy Friday!

I design wildlife-friendly homes that minimize habitat loss, with interior architecture at the core. Seeking new projects with eco-driven homeowners or industry pros. Please DM to get started. Or, would you reshare &/or drop feedback in the comments? See quick questions :) Grateful for any support!

Experimenting with new ways to combine home design with wildlife conservation efforts :) *and* how to show it. Makes for a nice Thursday afternoon!

I’m passionate about protecting both sides of this: I want *your* home to reflect what you value most, and I want #wildlife to keep the #homes they’ve *always* had, the homes they deserve to keep.

We ought to look at materials and ask not just what it’s made of but what habitat was lost to get it. It needs to consider the animal, not just the metric. It needs to help people help wildlife, right where they are.
