Why we're building Natsura

TODO (George): Mission statement, paragraph one. Why foliage deserves better tooling, what frustrated us about existing workflows. Artist-first workflows: keeping artists in control, posing, guiding, and art-directing instead of fighting parameters.

TODO (George): Mission statement, paragraph two. Where we want to take it: plants grounded in real growth that respond to light, shade, and obstacles, built for production with Nanite foliage and pipelines that scale from one tree to a forest.

“I came up through level design, environment art and tech art before landing on tools. Somewhere along the way I became the foliage guy, and never looked back.”
