6 Ways to a Healthier & More Productive Workplace
Biophilic design (the method for creating built environments that nurture the relationship between people and nature) is foundational to a healthier—and more productive—workplace. Here are 6 different ways to use biophilic design in your office below:
#1 Create Privacy
Use tall planters or a modular living wall in large, open spaces to provide natural boundaries and areas to linger.
#2 Eliminate Toxins
Bringing large leaf plants into your space adds oxygen and humidity while naturally purifying the air.
#3 Absorb Sound
Plants, moss walls, and living walls decrease background noise for a more productive, calming environment.
#4 Relieve Stress
Staff in offices with indoor plants and natural light have lower tension, anxiety, and mental fatigue.
#5 Enhance Design
Living walls and moss walls act as art, adding visual interest or even company branding.
#6 Set Expectations
Form a first impression that reflects your business with an entryway that is welcoming with seasonally designed containers.
Biophilic design restores a person's connection to the natural world by incorporating nature indoors. Design improvements that include plants and natural light in the built environment increase productivity and reduce absenteeism.
