BIOPHILIC
BIOPHILIC DESIGN
Biophilia describes humans’ inherent connection to nature. To put it simply, people innately love nature and feel better around it.
Biophilic design involves incorporating nature into built environments, such as office, hospitality, and retail spaces. The intent of biophilic design is to improve people’s overall health and wellbeing.

BIOPHILIC DESIGN IN PRACTICE
Biophilic design encompasses a variety of design attributes, from integrating natural light and fresh air to designing architecture that incorporates interactions with and views of nature.
One of the best, simplest, and most cost-effective ways to add the direct experience of nature is to add an abundance of plants.1
Whether you’re starting at the construction blueprint stage or enhancing an existing space, we can add a strong biophilic design component to your space.

FAQs
We work with medium and large companies, colleges and universities, and government entities.
Our points of contact are typically office managers, administrative assistants, and other people who are responsible for keeping their office interiors and exteriors fresh and appealing to employees and clients.
We recommend that you reach out at least six weeks before you need plants installed.
It generally takes about two weeks to get through the initial phone call, site visit, and proposal. The pace after that is up to you. Once we have signed a contract, generally it takes us about four weeks to get all the materials in hand.
Our technicians make site visits (usually once a week) to care for the plants and ensure they look their best. Their care usually includes a mixture of watering, pruning, fertilizing, and pest prevention. When a plant exhausts its lifespan, which is the nature of living plants, we’ll handle ordering, re-potting or replanting, and composting.
We are focused on designing, installing, and maintaining interior and exterior plantscapes.
We are not the biggest company with the most service offerings; we are the locally owned company with a laser focus on providing the highest quality living plants and care for your commercial property.
We also provide short-term rentals for events and conferences. Read about our plant rentals services.
