The Green Office Solutions

Welcome back, 2025! 🌿 This year, plants take centre stage in biophilic design, transforming spaces into vibrant, living ecosystems. What are the five key plant trends that you should be watching? 1️⃣ Oversized greenery – Statement plants like fiddle leaf figs and monstera bring drama and calm. 2️⃣ Edible indoor gardens – Herbs, microgreens, even small-scale vegetables thrive in modern interiors. 3️⃣ Native species spotlight – Local plants tailored to climate and culture for sustainability and style. 4️⃣ Smart plant care – Tech-enabled watering and monitoring systems for the busiest plant parents. 5️⃣ Green zoning – Plants define areas, create privacy, and improve air quality—all naturally. Ready to bring these trends to life in your space? Contact us today and let’s bring the outdoors in, into your space, in 2025. #2025 #trends #design #biophilia #biophilicdesign

Everyone loves a quick fix. Another productivity hack. But here’s the real trick no one’s talking about: nature. Add a few plants, let in some light, and watch what happens. 45% boost in creativity. 10% fewer sick days. The research is there, clear as day—biophilic design isn’t a nice-to-have, it’s the secret weapon every office needs. And yet, most workplaces look like cubicles from 1983. No personality. No life. Real biophilic design isn’t just a pretty desk plant. It’s integrating natural elements into every part of a space to make people feel alive. A simple plant is a start—but a space alive with nature? That’s where the magic happens. Is it just décor, or could it be your company’s next big idea? Contact us today to get started. #biophilicdesign #workspacdesign #officedesign

Is this Cape Town’s boldest office space? 👇🏼 Designed by Trend Group, the new space for Rubicon celebrates innovation, sustainability, and technology through bold curves, muted tones, and pops of vibrant colour. Collaboration zones pulse at the centre, while focus areas line the perimeter, balancing energy and calm. Archways and circular spaces guide clients through retail, industrial, and home-inspired environments—interactive, immersive, and beautifully simple. Rubicon doesn’t just work here. They showcase the future. #WorkplaceDesign #Sustainability #UserExperience #RubiconGroup #TrendGroup #CapeTown Design: Trend Group Furniture: @Design Collab As featured on Office Snapshots https://lnkd.in/eM4rdrzJ *Please note Green Office played no part in the design or supply of planting for this office.

Amsterdam's best jungle might not be on the ground. It’s here. 24 floors up. 🌿👇🏼 Selva, 24 floors up in the Nhow Hotel, is a jungle in the sky. Organic curves, plant-filled ceilings, and warm wood soften the glass and steel. Wicker filters sunlight, and a vibrant, tiled bar brings a burst of Latin American energy. Outside: industrial Amsterdam. Inside: lush, calm, alive. #BiophilicDesign #SelvaAmsterdam #RestaurantDesign #Hospitality As featured on Hospitality Snapshots.

Let’s get this straight: biophilia isn’t about making things look nice. It’s about making people feel something. Consider this: offices with biophilic design see 25% lower mental fatigue and a 15% increase in well-being. People in these spaces are engaged, attentive, and less stressed. But there’s more—biophilic spaces improve job satisfaction, lower anxiety, and drive retention. Think of it as an investment in people, not plants. When was the last time a fern boosted morale? When it’s part of a biophilic design, it does just that.

There are so many variations and designs in biophilic design, and the Indeed Offices in Tokyo showcase this perfectly.🌿 In the main reception area, the eyes are immediately drawn to the arches living wall feature, complimented by the warm wood tones, matched with dark fabric accents. The additional textures in the pedestals and curvature represented within the space only increases the modern feel without making the space feel cold and sterile as can be often found in ultra modern spaces. 🌱💺 As we move into the main biophilic area, we see the theme cohesively continue with gentle lighting and adaptable breakout spaces leading to the oasis displayed in the centre of the office. With a range of biophilia including hanging planters, moss art and thriving atriums, the space effortlessly blends relaxation into the workplace environment.💆♂️ #officedesign #biophilicdesign #biophilia #design #workspacedesign As featured on Office Snapshots.

'Hotelification' of the workspace 🌿 The hotelification of workspaces is all about creating environments that feel welcoming, comfortable, and inspiring. By borrowing ideas from the hospitality industry—like cosy seating, warm lighting, and stylish design—offices can transform into spaces people actually enjoy. Adding plants takes this to the next level. Biophilic design, which incorporates natural elements into the workplace, doesn’t just look great—it improves air quality, boosts productivity, and creates a sense of calm. A few statement plants in reception or greenery in common areas can make a sterile office feel alive and inviting. Together, hotelification and biophilic design strike the perfect balance between style and comfort. Why settle for an ordinary workspace when you can create one that inspires? #officedesign #planting #biophilicdesign #workplaceexperience

They’re more engaged, less stressed, and actually look forward to coming to work. And it’s not just a little plant on the desk—it’s integrating natural elements to bring life and energy into every corner of the space. It’s letting the outside in. Retention doesn’t come down to paychecks and perks. It’s about creating spaces people love. So why aren’t we all doing this? Contact us to get started 🌿. #biophilia #biophilicdesign #workspacedesign
