The linden tree has been planted in the center of villages for centuries. It is a place where people gather to share ideas, or to dispute, or to imagine.

We chose the name because it describes how we work: we position ourselves where disciplines come together.

We work with researchers, institutions, governments, artists and technologists who believe that environmental challenges require collaborative solutions.

Nature doesn’t recognize anthropic systems. Our work moves between systems because the problems do.

We investigate the ecosystems that sustain life, and the human systems that threaten or protect it.

We conduct environmental research that doesn't stay in the lab. Our findings are designed to travel: into policy rooms, gallery spaces, public discourse.

We work with new tools - sensing, AI, material science - not because they're new, but because some problems need instruments that don't exist yet.

We are based in New York and Paris. We work everywhere the work takes us.
