About US

Indeed, the Lord will comfort Zion; He will comfort all her ruins. And He will make her wilderness like Eden, And her desert like the garden of the Lord. Joy and gladness will be found in her, Thanksgiving and the sound of a melody.
— Isaiah 51:3

Mission

At Template: Terra Nova, we are dedicated to revitalizing our planet's ecosystems and transforming human living spaces through the principles of rewilding, innovative forest creation methods and sustainable building practices and design. Our mission, guided by a novel way of seeing the world as a 3-phase cycle of benevolently unfolding energy flows brought through conscious agents of nature, is to bridge the gap between human habitation and the natural world, creating environments that are not only ecologically sound but also nurture the human spirit. We achieve this by reconnecting landholders, organizations, and homeowners with the intrinsic beauty and functionality of native ecosystems. The result: a new world of peace and prosperity.

Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and the earth; the alternation of the day and the night; the ships that sail the sea for the benefit of humanity; the rain sent down by Allah from the skies, reviving the earth after its death; the scattering of all kinds of creatures throughout; the shifting of the winds; and the clouds drifting between the heavens and the earth—in all of this are surely signs for people of understanding.
— Quran, Al-Baqara 2:164

Vision

Our vision extends beyond the restoration of natural landscapes to include the creation of living spaces and artful communities that embody the essence of coexistence and right relationship with existence, where every element from soil to sky harmonizes in a symphony of sustainable practices. We envision communities where human settlements are integrated seamlessly with their environment, supporting biodiversity and offering residents a profound connection to nature that reorganizes their cognition and functionality. Through innovative design and technology, we aim to demonstrate that regenerative living can enhance quality of life while also being aesthetically pleasing and technologically advanced.

Is it not yet just a little while Before Lebanon will be turned into a fertile field, And the fertile field will be considered as a forest?
— Isaiah 29:17
