Behind Naturate

Hi, I’m Johan

Johan Gace

I’m a designer, engineer and nature guide. Before Naturate, I worked on AI at Amazon. My practice also includes guiding outdoors and training in permaculture design.

I bring those disciplines together to help organizations working with nature design and build useful technology.

“We design with nature so humanity can live in integrity with the planet.”
