Redefine beauty through spreading a deeper understanding of the mechanics of nature. 

Create unconventional, regenerative, and inspiring plant instillations. 

Make scientific knowledge surrounding the mechanics of our Earth's environment accessible to audiences outside of the science field.   

Prove the communal & environmental benefits of caring  for the land by planting more prairie gardens, specifically in low-income areas where the ignored landscapes create a bleak environment for those who need to work to survive.

Every practice and consideration toward The Color & Light Co’s  botanical installations are based on 12 permaculture design principles:

• Interact with the land before acting, 
• create systems that catch and store energy, 
• create systems that can obtain caloric or financial yields, 
• create systems that can be self-regulation & accepting feedback
• value renewable resources and services
• produce no waste
• design from ecological patterns
• integrate rather than segregate
• use small and slow solutions
• use and value variation
• utilize the space’s margins
• & creatively use and respond to natural changes.

Functional beauty is the concept that a tool or system can show clear elements of artistic design, without risking its operational integrity. 

The Color & Light Co.’s botanical installations are made to sequester nutrients, strengthen soil structure, increase biodiversity, and potentially mitigate the severity of storm impact.
