Infinitely detailed, unfathomably complex and unequally creative, Nature is the premier artist.

Visually emotive, dynamic and inspiring, Nature is an art in motion; inherently reciprocal, continually evolving, with harmony representing its utmost ideal and perfected form. 

 

Our contemporary naturalistic design is distinguished by holistic and harmonizing processes so your relationship to your outdoor space is beautiful, practical and reciprocal. Ecologically directed art creates a vibrant canvas that is also habitat; meaning it self-sustains vigor and grows abundance while contributing back to the vital ecological processes that support it. Design that values ecological diversity is a visually serene, technical art as much as it is a contribution to all. 

 

Founding Outsiders

Walkabout’s founders, Laura and Kyle, have spent over ten years investigating nature’s gifts exploring Earth’s most beautiful landscapes and the cultures that support and surround them. Outdoor enthusiasts at heart, they rarely spend a day inside. Whether they are experimenting with new plants in their home gardens, hiking jungled trails, or diving coral reefs, their curiosity and reverence for nature’s beauty and generosity inspires them to reciprocate. Through their influence at Walkabout Outdoor, they aspire to have a positive impact on one of the landscapes they love most - Minnesota’s prairies and forests.
