Bring Nature Indoors

Being immersed in nature is known to improve mental wellbeing. The same is true when you bring nature indoors. At SerpaDesign, I believe that nature design (house plants, terrariums, aquariums, etc.) produces a better quality of life. I often take that to the extreme, but that’s the point. My goal is to excite you about this artform through education and entertainment. The possibilities are endless! This platform is designed to show you just how fun, easy, and rewarding it can be.

I had to take dismantle the 600 Gallon Vivarium in this week's video. (link in bio) I won't rebuild it for at least a month, but I can't wait to show you what I'm going to do with it next. I'll take it in a completely different direction.
I finally started moving everything to the new place, so the chapter on the current one can come to an end. I don't know if you've ever had to do stuff like this before, but I hate it and it never gets easy. It always stresses me out because I worry
