The following case studies explore Grounded In’s work in practice, reflecting on projects at the intersection of participatory practice, design and ecology. Through them, I reflect on the questions, decisions and experiences that have shaped the work over time.

Rather than presenting polished outcomes, they focus on what actually happens through each project and the tensions, surprises and insights that come from working with people and nature.

Each case study is grounded in a specific place and shaped by an enquiry, offering a glimpse into how the work unfolds alongside communities, within nature and in relationship with the living systems around us.

Take your time reading them - perhaps with a cup of tea?
