LUMOLI
Outdoor solutions that support biodiversity.
We design, implement, and maintain biodiverse outdoor areas for housing cooperatives and public spaces
Reviving biodiversity is a shared responsibility, and it is possible in almost any environment. LUMOLI is a comprehensive service designed to turn outdoor spaces into thriving environments that support biodiversity. We provide solutions for the design, construction, and maintenance of outdoor areas for both housing cooperatives and public spaces.
Biodiversity enhances comfort, strengthens our connection with nature, and increases property value. Our experts help create outdoor spaces where people and nature can thrive together. Picture a yard where colorful flowers attract pollinators, diverse vegetation offers shelter to small animals, and lush greenery invites you to pause, breathe, and simply enjoy. Such a yard is both beautiful and supports human well-being and the sustainable development of nature.
An increasing number of housing cooperatives and public spaces are recognizing the value of biodiversity when developing yards and green areas. Biodiversity enhances urban nature, improves comfort, increases the usability of outdoor spaces, and makes the environment more inviting. It is also becoming an essential part of responsibility metrics, such as green factor calculations and CSRD reporting, which shape the way we build, and manage properties for the future.
Key elements of the LUMOLI service
We provide our clients with a comprehensive service that includes:
Creating pollinator-friendly habitats
Improving soil health and growth potential
Designing and implementing diverse plantings
Easy and sustainable biodiversity as a service
The LUMOLI service package enhances the positive impact of outdoor spaces on biodiversity in a holistic and practical way. LUMOLI can be applied to entire outdoor areas or smaller sections, from planting sections to long-term maintenance. The goal is to renew existing environments or create new ones where nature is given the space to thrive.
The service is available as a one-off project or as a broader three-year plan. We operate mainly in the Helsinki metropolitan area, Turku, and Tampere.
LUMOLI is an ideal solution for housing cooperatives looking to create greener, more inviting, and more sustainable outdoor spaces. It also supports public space managers and design agencies in developing yards and green areas. In addition, LUMOLI offers solutions for urban planners and developers who prioritize ecology and green factor requirements in their projects.
Design as the starting point for a biodiverse and aesthetic yard
With expert planning, an outdoor area can be integrated into a broader green network and ecosystem. The LUMOLI plan can be created for the entire outdoor space or for specific sections. The plan takes into account:
- The area’s specific conditions (light, soil, climate)
- The client’s wishes and any green factor or responsibility requirements
- Suitable plant species (with an emphasis on native plants and wild species)
Available plans:
- Green Implementation Plan
- Maintenance Plan
Green implementation brings the plan to life
We tailor our green implementations to each site individually. The aim is to create habitats that support biodiversity and attract insects, birds and worms while also creating inviting, interesting environments for people.
Examples of implementations:
- Increasing and diversifying vegetation
- Replacing hard surfaces with permeable and green solutions
- Building habitats such as ponds, wetlands, or deadwood gardens
- Using perennial and seasonally changing plants
Maintenance ensures long-term results
A well-maintained outdoor area evolves over time. LUMOLI maintenance is based on a site-specific plan and supports the well-being of plants, soil, and pollinators. Over a three-year agreement, the actions have time to take root and produce visible results.
The service includes:
- Regular maintenance
- Reporting on actions taken
Communication makes sustainability efforts visible
We provide LUMOLI clients with ready-made communication materials to showcase biodiversity efforts to outdoor area users and other stakeholders. Clear and visual communication increases the understanding of nature’s value and encourages environmentally responsible behaviour.
Monitoring shows the impact of the actions
Would you like to know how the biodiversity of your green area is developing? We also offer monitoring services, which may include pollinator counts or eDNA measurements. Based on the results, actions can be fine-tuned, and the benefits can be demonstrated in reporting.
