About
In order to accomplish our vision, we are committed to being conscious of the materials we use and treading lightly in the environments we build on. Born out of curiosity and exploration; the human experience and connection to the natural world is of the utmost importance. Step into one of our spaces and immediately feel a connection with the world around you.
We believe in the pursuit of better. For that reason, we sought out the best materials and the most efficient, sustainable ways to build our structures. A healthy planet is good for everyone, so let's pursue better, together.
This notion brought the team at Holden Co. together with the common belief that there is a better way to build.
Find Your Wild.
Holden Co. was established in the back of a van in Yosemite Valley where Alex Holden and I would spend time after long days of hiking and exploring all that Yosemite has to offer. The van was a cocoon for rest and conversation. It gave us space where our thoughts and ideas could run freely, where we could talk at length about the problems we wanted to solve and the businesses we could build to do that.
Alex passed away before those dreams were realized, but that experience and those memories will last a lifetime and that is something I want to give to other people.The vision was to create a space where anyone can dream, think, live, getaway, and feel a true connection to nature. The team at Holden Co. shares this vision and together we created our first design 'Minka' as a place to find your wild. - Aaron Lawrence, Co-Founder & CEO
