ODO organic design operatives is a diverse collective of creative people brought together through the common mission of reconnecting people with nature by design.

We believe that many of the world’s problems are, in part, a consequence of a deepening void between people and nature and the dysfunctional design that often results. How else can you explain SUVs in the face of global climate change?

What to do? Our mission has two parts:
1. Use our creativity to try and rekindle a connection between people and nature.
2. Help foster a new sustainable design model based on nature’s laws through education, exploration and example.

“In the end we will conserve only what we love; we will love only what we understand; and we will understand only what we have been taught.”
  —Baba Dioum (1894-1969)

That’s it. Remember Nature.
