„If people sat outside and looked at the stars each night, I’ll bet they’d live a lot differently.“

THE LOUISA
Co-Founder und CEO
As a company consultant, she likes to crush, rearrange and (re-)create things. By calling it “self-disruption” and “resilience strategy” it sounds official. Being a painter and photographer, ghostwriter, mother of two, sister of five, teaching Design Thinking at Hasso Plattner Institute, studying Islamic and Judaic Studies, and being a scriptwriting scholar at HFF Munich seems random but is all part of the masterplan.
THE CASPAR
Co-Founder and Head of keeping everything running
Caspar unfortunately has a talent for keeping things in order so he got stuck with the organizational stuff at THE VIELD. Fortunately, though, he also consults clients from diverse industries with his experience in partnerships, content strategy, media and digital product design. His true loves though are football, his kids, and his co-founder (not necessarily in that order).
THE DESIREE
Head of Guest Taming and Survival Suppliance
Desi is what they call a glue-person. She holds things together, keeps everyone calm and manages to charm everyone with her signature smile and contagious laughter. Love and Homeliness are what her cooking tastes like and how she makes you feel all around.
She teaches the art of makramee in workshops and has an eye and supply for interior, dealing in rugs and textiles as Bohazel Berlin.
How can we forget, she teaches healthy cooking at a school and last and lately but surely not least she has gained her certificate as an ayurvedic cook and nutrition consultant.
THE CHRIS
Co-Head of Guest Taming and Garden Gorilla
Chris and Desi are two peas in pot. They reign the kitchen kingdom together AND grow food for you in our perma culture garden. (there might be something else going on between those two..)
Chris is training to be a breath coach, soon to be leading you through the quite complicated act of breathing the right way – yes, you have been doing it wrong all your life.
He is also a major book and music geek, knows his way around turn tables and has a very impressive T-Shirt and Vinyl collection.
THE RENÉ
Behind The Scenes Feel Good Management
René likes working his magical power in the background, understating his importance to this whole operation. Truth is, the charming wilderness we got going on is like your “just-got-out-of-bed haircut” – it needs a lot of love and attention.
He can juggle brooms and sponges at hours of the morning you didn’t even know existed (neither the sponges nor the hour), he knows which tree to prune and why the coffee machine is offended with us. And if we (or you) change plans every five minutes he just nods and goes with our flow. Rene doesn’t manage the facility – he lives and loves it – most of all his three little assistants.
THE SPÄTI, MIU AND KARLHEINZ
Mowing Machines Bleating Business Manager and Assistants to The Rene
Don’t say they look like goats. They are not and they take offense. These three fellas who are actually all women but we are gender progressive so names are just a label (goat isn’t – goats and sheep are two completely different species – at least we think they are).
Actually these beauties (they are also smart, independent and strong – and not goats) are cameroon sheep – hence their natural habitat is Nord-Brandenburg. They love eating, pooping and bleaking. Thank god, that is their job.
THE POOL
Coaches, Consultants, Creatives
They are too many to list them here we’re afraid but we have the big honor, sometimes challenge and mostly fun working with a carefully curated pool of experts and different fields like Design Thinking, Storytelling, Biomimicry, System Thinking, Organizational Strategy, Branding, Design, Team Building, Disruption, Digitalisation – well, you get the gist of it.
