The Birth of W.I.L.D.

Cultivating a New Vision

As an architect, landscape designer, and hospitality consultant, I've witnessed a seismic shift in the post-pandemic world. Remote work has liberated professionals from urban confines, leading them to sprawling countryside properties. Suddenly, they find themselves with vast gardens and a budding passion for green spaces.

But questions arise:

  • How to manage this newfound abundance?

  • Is expanding staff the answer?

  • Should they monetize their harvests?

Inspired by countless inquiries from these newfound rural dwellers, I crafted solutions to meet their unique needs:

  • Y.G.M. Service: Tailored support for your green ambitions

  • M.F.A. Membership: A community for like-minded property innovators

W.I.L.D. emerged as the bridge between urban expertise and rural potential, helping visionaries transform their spaces without overextending their resources.

Before I forget, an Introduction:

My name is Ian Dommisse.

I am an architect and a passionate landscape designer. My biggest project to date is the Angama Mara edible food experiential garden in Kenya, an integral design feature of the prestigious Luxury Safari Lodge.

Locally I designed the “Octopus Garden” at the Waterfront, a great example of garden design led by permaculture principles. I have also worked on numerous residential gardens where the client’s needs, architecture and site surroundings are at the heart of my design process.

The other ‘hat’ that I wear is the role of project manager of Grow SA, an organization formed during the pandemic to boost the green economy through skills and human development.

I gather inspiration from nature and often find beauty in plants and flowers that are often unnoticed.
