Built around the habitat

A habitat, not a houseplant

Every vivarium begins with what should live in it — the airflow, moisture, planting and light a thriving habitat needs. Then we build the world around it, engineered with smart automation so it holds its balance with minimal effort.

Three living formats

Terrarium, vivarium, paludarium

Every build is bespoke. The format sets how much land, how much water, and the life it's made for.

Risk-free

The CCS Living Guarantee

Included with every Vivarium and Paludarium build. We don't build it and walk away — your habitat is backed until it settles within the first 30 days.

01
Two settling-in visits, included
We return on-site twice within the first 30 days to tune planting, moisture and airflow as the habitat establishes — included, not an add-on.
02
Guaranteed to settle in 30 days
We guarantee your habitat settles within the first 30 days — balanced, stable and thriving. If it doesn't, we put it right.
03
Priority support, ASAP
Message us any time after handover and you go to the front of the queue — a real person from the studio gets back to you as soon as possible.

How it works

From first sketch to handover

Message us

Send your space, a photo and the life you'd like to keep. We reply within a day with honest guidance.

We design & quote

We compose the habitat — hardscape, planting, misting and light — and send a clear, itemised proposal to approve.

We build & install

We fabricate, install and establish the system, and hand it over thriving — integrated cleanly into your space.

We keep it alive

Settling-in visits and optional aftercare keep your habitat balanced long after handover.

Good to know

Questions, answered

What's the difference between a terrarium, vivarium and paludarium?+

A terrarium is a planted land scene in glass. A vivarium is a living habitat built for animals, with automated misting and ventilation. A paludarium combines land and water — a planted shoreline with a live stream or pool. We build all three, bespoke.

Do you provide the animals?+

No — we design and build the habitat and teach you to care for it, so you can add your own once it's established. We're happy to advise on what suits your build.

How much does a build cost?+

Formats start from $300 (Terrarium), $1,200 (Vivarium) and $3,500 (Paludarium). Final price depends on size, automation and planting — tell us your space on WhatsApp for an honest, itemised quote with no obligation.

What if it doesn't establish well?+

That's what the CCS Living Guarantee is for. We return for two settling-in visits in the first 30 days, and if it doesn't settle the way it should, we put it right.

Do you maintain it after handover?+

Yes. Settling-in visits are included with every Vivarium and Paludarium build. After that, ongoing aftercare on a monthly contract keeps it thriving without the chore.

Do you build for offices, restaurants and hotels?+

Absolutely — paludariums and large vivariums make striking feature installations. We handle larger builds end-to-end, including concealed life-support and scheduled maintenance.
