Background

About Garima Dubey

If you're building a farmhouse or boutique resort, I help you design guest-ready, low-maintenance outdoor spaces that are beautiful, sustainable, and future-resilient. As a landscape architect and co-founder of Ukiyo Habitat, I work with property owners to create immersive landscapes using permaculture principles, natural swimming pools, native planting, and smart water systems that cut down on long-term maintenance while enhancing guest experience and property value. Passionate about sustainable design, I specialize in landscape hydrology, urban ecology, and nature-based solutions to address environmental challenges. With a background in architecture and landscape architecture, my work integrates water management, spatial planning, and ecological resilience to create sustainable and climate-responsive environments. As the Co-founder & Principal Designer at Ukiyo Habitat, I lead projects that blend regenerative design, blue-green infrastructure, and ecological restoration. From premium villa gardens to urban flood-resilient parks, our work merges design with water, soil, and biodiversity systems to craft spaces that last—physically and emotionally. My expertise extends to academia, where I teach and mentor emerging designers in Design and Democracy, Materials & Processes, and Sustainable Planning. My research focuses on water security, spring sustainability, and hydro-landscapes, with published work in leading journals. Whether it’s restoring wetlands, designing climate-adaptive spaces, or collaborating on innovative sustainability projects, I’m always excited to connect and exchange ideas. Let’s work together to create greener, more resilient spaces!
