We build houses. This year, we're also funding wildlife houses.
We've joined Wild Houses - a one-to-one pledge program for the built environment. For every home we deliver, one professionally installed nest box is funded at a conservation site in Australia.
Tree hollows take over a century to form. We can clear a site in an afternoon. This is us choosing to build for wildlife too.

Here's a number that changed how we think about our work.
Tree hollows take 100 to 200 years to form naturally. Hollow-dependent species - gliders, owls, microbats, parrots - can't wait for that. When a site is cleared, that shelter is gone for generations.
This year, we've pledged to Wild Houses. Every home we build, one nest box is professionally installed where it's needed most. Building for people and building for wildlife, at the same time.

We spend a lot of time thinking about what our buildings give to the people in them. Wild Houses made us think about what they take.
We've joined Wild Houses this year. For every project we design, one nest box is funded and professionally installed for wildlife. This is us choosing to design for wildlife too.
The species that depend on tree hollows can't wait 200 years. We can act now.

Every project we take on changes the land. Most of the time, it's a net loss for habitat.
This year, we're making one decision to push back against that. We've pledged to Wild Houses - one wildlife house funded for every project we complete. Designing for people and building for wildlife, at the same time.
A professionally installed nest box. A real tree. A real place that needs it.

We design spaces where people connect with nature. But every site we work on has a before - and that before often includes habitat.
We've joined Wild Houses this year. For every garden or project we deliver, one nest box is funded and professionally installed for wildlife. This is us choosing to design for wildlife too.

Australian wildlife depends on tree hollows. It takes 100 to 200 years for one to form naturally.
As landscape designers, we work on sites that have often already lost that habitat. Gardens are built where bush used to be. Driveways go where hollow trees stood.
This year, we've pledged to Wild Houses. One professionally installed nest box for every project we deliver. Shaping land for people and building for wildlife, at the same time.

We work with trees every day. We understand hollow-dependent wildlife better than most.
Gliders, owls, microbats, parrots - all dependent on hollows that take up to 200 years to form naturally. When we remove or significantly prune a mature tree, that hollow is gone.
We've joined Wild Houses this year. For every significant tree we assess or remove, one nest box is funded and professionally installed for wildlife. This is us choosing to give something back.

One thing we see too often: hollow-dependent wildlife with nowhere to go.
Gliders. Owls. Bats. Parrots. All dependent on tree hollows that took up to 200 years to form. We remove a tree in hours. The hollow that was in it is gone for generations.
This year, we've pledged to Wild Houses. Every significant tree we work on, one nest box is funded. Not a replacement for a hollow - but shelter while nature does the slow work of recovery. Working with trees and building for wildlife, at the same time.

At the scale we build, the impact on habitat is significant. We know that.
We've joined Wild Houses this year. For every lot completed or dwelling delivered, one nest box is funded and professionally installed for wildlife. Building at scale for people and building for wildlife, at the same time.
Tree hollows take over a century to form. We build in months. Wild Houses is how we step in - shelter while nature recovers.

A number from the site we're currently delivering: [X] homes, [Y] lots, [Z] hectares.
For every one of those dwellings, we've pledged a wildlife house through Wild Houses. One professionally installed nest box, in a place that needs it. Delivering homes for people and building for wildlife, at the same time.
It doesn't undo what development takes. But it's a real, measurable act - not a donation to an idea.

We think a lot about how the spaces we design affect the people inside them. Wild Houses is a reminder of what's outside them too.
We've joined Wild Houses this year. For every project we deliver, one professionally installed nest box is funded for wildlife. This is us choosing to design for wildlife too.
The built environment is one of the biggest drivers of habitat loss in the country. This is our small part of a bigger shift.

Biophilic design. Organic materials. Natural light. We work hard to bring nature into the spaces we create.
This year, we wanted to do something for the nature we can't bring inside.
We've pledged to Wild Houses - one wildlife house funded for every project we complete. A nest box, in a real tree, in a place that needs it. Designing beautiful spaces and building for wildlife, at the same time.

BEFORE YOU POST
MAKE IT COUNT.
TAG @MARNIEHAWSON
Tag us in your post or caption and we'll reshare to our audience. Wild Houses lives under the Marnie Hawson brand for now, so tagging @marniehawson is the right place.
Make it yours
The captions are a starting point. The best posts include a real detail from your own work - a project name, a number, a specific site. Specific always lands better than general.
Add it to your bio
A "Wild Houses partner" line in your Instagram bio signals your values to every new visitor. You can link to wildhouses.com.au if you want to go further.
Post more than once
Announce it now, then follow up when you get your EOFY report. "Here's the nest box our pledge funded. Here's where it is." That second post often performs better than the first.
PARTNER LOGO
After your pledge is fulfilled at EOFY, we'll send you a Wild Houses partner logo for your website, about page, proposals - anywhere you want to show what you've actually done.
