Grow more. Work less.
Supporting busy landowners grow regenerative landscapes that don’t waste time and energy
Water is the key
Are you managing your water or is water managing you?
Combining an abundant landscape with a busy schedule is not always easy.
Weather patterns are getting more extreme and many factors are making it difficult to grow functioning ecosystems.
Turn your land into an abundant oasis without constant maintenance and watering.
Water-smart, regenerative landscape design enables you to regenerate land and turn it into productive abundance.
Let nature do the work of growing and watering lush, beautiful ecosystems right at your doorstep. Eliminate the usual headaches of constantly having to irrigate or employing a someone to do it.
Hi, I'm Nick
Together with my team, we are here to support you to bring landscapes back to life.
Across Europe, we design and build water retention landscapes that stop erosion, refill aquifers and turn dry, degraded land into thriving ecosystems. From fire resilience to food security – restoring the water cycle is often the missing piece.
We use GIS, surveying, and hands-on land observation to understand topography, hydrology, and where water wants to go. From small erosion control checkdams to large ponds and terraces, we design and implement earthworks that work with nature.
We are coordinating machinery, marking precise outlines, and walking the land until the design fits like a glove.
As part of Water Stories team, I’m working closely with my friend and Mentor Zach Weiss to share this work through workshops and trainings around the world. We are empowering more people to read landscapes, work with gravity, and become stewards of water.
If you are looking to design a large-scale water retention landscape, a rainwater harvesting system for your house or a smart irrigation system for your garden, we are here to support you.
What do you need to get water to work for you?
Rainwater catchment systems
From rain gutters to tanks, capture every drop for irrigation and even drinking.
Water harvesting earthworks
Shape your land to ensure that no drop leaves the property and every bit of rain gets stored and infiltrated.
Smart watering systems
From self-watering pots and garden beds to pumped irrigation systems, there is a solution for your needs.
Erosion prevention and control
Protect your land against erosion and prevent any more water from cutting channels into your land.
Communication and collaboration as the basis
I will work closely with you to explore and develop solutions together. The process is always collaborative and I’m here to guide you along the way.
One step at a time. From idea to reality.
- Develop a vision for your land
- Analyse landscape and social dynamics
- Create a concept design and plan
- Evaluate the concept together
- Develop a full design and plan
- Turn the plan into reality
You are not alone
I am a strong believer in developing designs together with you.
Instead of simply delivering a design and letting you alone with it, we will co-create your land.
I will be there with you to guide you through the process and to develop the design together with you.
What others say about working together
Let water work for you
Imagine a lush, productive landscape that grows and develops while you live your life and spend your time doing what you love.
Let’s build systems that grow even when you are not around.
Better design. Less maintenance.
I believe in spending the time and energy in the design process to create landscapes and growing systems that almost take care of themselves. Let’s harness the power of water to give you the time to enjoy your land rather than being enslaved to it.
Let nature do your work
If you want to maximise your land’s productivity and output, we can make it happen. However, a natural landscape with slightly less production might give you the life you always wanted.
