OXMAN is a nature-based research and design company based in Manhattan. We incubate nature-centric ventures that address critical challenges at the intersection of Nature and Humanity. Working across sectors, OXMAN fosters innovation that reimagines the relationship between the built environment and the natural world.

EDEN

EDEN is OXMANs applied ecological systems initiative operating at architectural, urban, and landscape scales. We are pioneering a digital design environment for engineering biodiverse, resilient ecosystems through the development of software that enables designers and engineers to integrate ecosystem servicesincluding carbon sequestration, thermal buffering, and biodiversityinto master planning and design. Our tools aim to transform ecosystem services from undervalued byproducts into essential infrastructure. While we test and refine the platform through client projects in master planning, architecture, and landscape architecture, our core mission is to build a powerful, adaptable system for designing productive, regenerative environments. We are looking for talented individuals to join us in shaping the future of nature-centric design.
