The meaning of EcoLuma

EcoLuma is more than a name — it's a reflection of our values and our vision for a better way of living.
“Eco” speaks to our deep commitment to the environment — to building with care, consuming with intention, and making choices that honor both the land and future generations.
“Luma” is inspired by light — the kind that guides, warms, and illuminates the path forward. It symbolizes clarity, awareness, and the spark that grows when we share ideas and experiences.
Together, EcoLuma represents the intersection of ecological living and thoughtful design — a journey toward a brighter, simpler, and more sustainable future. At Ecoluma, we embark on a transformative journey toward sustainable homebuilding in New Brunswick, Canada. Our mission transcends building a house; we aim to cultivate a home steeped in sustainability, simplicity, and purpose. We openly share our experiences as we seek land, purchase property, and design a passive ecological home, all while emphasizing honesty and heartfelt storytelling.
