Alosha Lynov is a Bio-Architect who combines the principles of Earthships, the vision of Antoni Gaudí, and the elegance of Sacred Geometry to create autonomous Living BioShelter Organisms—self-heating, self-cooling, and self-sustaining structures.
He founded Bio-Veda Academy of Bio-Architecture for the purpose of educating and empowering people to design and build their own eco-homes. To date, the academy has provided hands-on video courses in ecological construction and water self-sufficiency to more than 3,500 students worldwide.
With over 25 years of experience, Alosha has dedicated his career to integrating biomimicry, permaculture, and sustainable technologies into architecture. His unique approach emphasizes biomimetic forms and systems that are structurally stronger, more cost-effective, and more harmonious with natural landscapes than conventional building methods.
Alosha’s path began in the late 1990s, initially working with spandex sculptures for event design. In 2007, he trained in Mexico at a flying concrete workshop, where he mastered the creation of Gaudí-inspired ferrocement shells. He later applied this knowledge to his own land, building a 700 sq. ft. seashell-inspired structure and developing a fully self-sufficient ecosystem.
His work has taken him across five continents, where he has studied with global experts and taught workshops in BioTecture, permaculture, and water self-sufficiency. Today, his focus remains on developing and teaching innovative building techniques that enable individuals and communities to live sustainably and resiliently.
My experience has been terrific. I am able to go at my own pace, refer back to the text and pause when necessary, so that I can absorb the information. I have answered all questions correctly, but because my answers are not worded as the program would like, I struggle with whether I will receive a passing mark.
Generally good, especially in emphasizing connection to the land and establishing survival priorities. There are, though, a couple of important and misleading typos - one of which states that temperature drops 35 degrees (as opposed to 3.5 degrees) for every thousand of elevation.
This course is easy to follow. The structure and content is uncomplicated, intuitive, practicle and full of applicable and appliable information.
For anyone wanting to break free from unsustainable means and methods of providing our families with their basic needs; water, food, safety, shelter, this course is for you! For anyone wanting to be a part of the global solution rather than part of the problem, this is for you!
The relevancy and diversity of the content can be applied to any situation, anywhere in the world. I am learning and building on some of the skills and knowledge that I already have and will be able to start the process of resting, connecting, and healing from the trauma I have been subjected to in being forced to be part of a society that would rather dehumanise me. I am being provided with the necessary tools and techniques to gain imperitive skills that will not only help me and my community survive, but also... to thrive!
I just completed the online Sylvotherapy Course and was pleasantly surprised by how informative and in-depth it was. The content went far beyond what I expected, offering detailed insights and practical knowledge. Even as someone who has spent much time over the last 50 years immersed in nature, I still learned a great deal. Highly recommend for anyone looking to deepen their connection with the forest and understand its therapeutic benefits on a deeper level.
I am so grateful for this course and experience to learn, grow, and be able to help others. Highly recommend this course to anyone who is looking to learn about Sylvotherapy
