🌱 Our Roots & Headquarters
Our work spans three countries, but our heart beats strongest in Slovakia.
The headquarters of our ventures lie in Western Slovakia, just 120 kilometers from Vienna’s Schwechat Airport, in a region where the Austro-Hungarian heritage and rural beauty come together. This land is home to Casa Tulipana, our signature restoration and ecological farming project, and the birthplace of our long-term vision: to build healing spaces, artist residencies, and community-driven living rooted in nature and heritage.
From Switzerland to Germany to Slovakia—our triangle of vision connects mountains, cities, and ancestral soil into one living ecosystem of ideas, beauty, and impact.
