Rewild designed this urban oasis in the heart of downtown NYC—a lush, tranquil residential haven that reintroduces biodiversity into the city. This landscape offers a cool, refreshing retreat during the summer months while providing vital habitats for pollinators and birds. With a focus on restoring ecological balance, Rewild’s design contributes to the vision of tomorrow’s cities as biodiverse and rewilded spaces.

The landscape includes:

  • Native Plantings: Rewild carefully selected resilient, region-specific plants that attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies, helping to cultivate a thriving urban ecosystem.
  • Bird-Friendly Design: Fruit-bearing trees, sheltering shrubs, and thoughtfully placed water features create a welcoming environment for birds, providing food, nesting spaces, and refuge.
  • Seasonal Transformation: A design that evolves with the seasons, offering year-round beauty and ecological benefits through shifting colors, textures, and scents.
  • Cooling Green Canopy: Dense tree plantings and lush vegetation that naturally reduce the heat island effect, creating a cool, shaded retreat in the heart of the city.
  • Vertical Greening: Rewild maximized space by incorporating green walls, rooftop gardens, and vertical planting, enhancing biodiversity in a compact urban environment.

By seamlessly blending human comfort with ecological richness, Rewild’s design reshapes urban living, creating a model for sustainable, biodiverse cities of the future.
