Biophilic design plays on the inherent human need to be connected to nature, with plants and natural resources proven to have a positive impact on occupant’s general health and wellbeing.

With accessible green space often limited within office environments, green features such as living walls are helping to bring the outside in and are quickly becoming common features in corporate spaces.

Offering far more than a few strategically placed potted plants, biophilic design features have been proven to improve productivity, creativity, mood and even cognitive functions; creating a healthier, happier and greener workplace.

Wellbeing at work

Biophilic design provides benefits far beyond the aesthetic, having the ability to improve health and mental wellbeing within the workplace. Living walls offer a simple way of implementing green design with a difference, with research revealing that just thirty minutes of exposure to nature each week can reduce risks of high blood pressure, stress and even depression.
