Building a Complete Permaculture Site Plan in Concepts

We've built our scaled base map. Now we turn it into a full permaculture design. In this video, I'll walk you through layering a complete site plan in the Concepts app, using a real client project as the example. Each design element gets its own toggle-able layer, so you can isolate and build the design piece by piece. This is the fourth video in the base map series. If you're new here, start with the earlier ones for the full picture. By the end, you'll know how to: Map sectors (sun, wind, water, fire, views) onto your base Define zones based on the real elements your land needs to hold Place structures using simple shapes at the right scale Route water and access together along contour Layer in planting, windbreaks, and fruit tree guilds The project shown is a real glamping retreat design with six units, a yoga shala, communal facilities, a multi-stage water filtration system using ferro cement tanks, and shared bio-digesters. Same workflow scales to a backyard or a hundred-hectare farm. 🛠️ What you'll need: Concepts app (free version works, paid unlocks more layers) Your scaled base map from the previous videos Sun tracking app for sector mapping Weather data for prevailing wind direction ⏱️ Chapters: 0:00 Intro: layered design overview 0:16 Canvas setup and base map locking 0:27 Sectors: the flows we don't control 1:08 Concepts tip: smoothing slider for clean lines 1:21 Zones: dividing land by use 2:19 Structures: placing buildings to scale 2:57 Water and access: routing along contour 3:21 Water supply: filtration system breakdown 3:51 Wastewater: bio-digesters and french drains 4:02 Planting: windbreaks, guilds, and edges 4:39 The completed site plan 📺 Watch the full base map series: Part 1: How to Make a Permaculture Base Map (With a Drone) →    • Making your to scale base map go permacult...   Part 2: How to Make a Permaculture Base Map Without a Drone →    • How to Make a Permaculture Base Map Withou...   Part 3: How to Make a Base Map in Google Earth Pro →    • How to Make a Base Map in Google Earth (Fr...   🔗 Tools mentioned: Concepts app: https://concepts.app 👉 Want to design your own regenerative property or launch a career as a permaculture designer?
