Our roots
Rooted in the Nature Island
EcoShopGuide was founded by Cydel Giraudel and his mother, Mersula Giraudel. Our family roots are in Dominica, the Caribbean island known as the Nature Island for its rainforests, rivers, mountains, and extraordinary plant life.
Nature, brought home.
That connection to place shaped how we see a home: calm, grounded, welcoming, and alive with natural texture. From leafy greens and warm woods to florals, woven details, and seasonal accents, we curate pieces that help people bring a little of that feeling indoors.
Today, we are based in Austin, Texas, while staying closely connected to our Caribbean roots. We love returning to Dominica and revisiting the landscapes, family memories, and natural beauty that continue to inspire EcoShopGuide.
