Nature at the workplace: not a luxury but a necessity

Nature is playing an increasingly important role not only in and around our homes, but also in the office and hospitality sectors. Nature At Work is strongly committed to biophilic design: the scientifically proven principle that contact with nature boosts productivity, creativity and well-being.

Studies show that offices incorporating natural elements are up to 15 % more productive, and that staff feel better and stay with a company for longer. Plants reduce stress, improve air quality and boost concentration.

Nature At Work therefore literally brings nature indoors – including into offices. They design spaces where greenery is not merely an afterthought, but strategically contributes to aesthetics, comfort and productivity. This ranges from eye-catching features in the lobby to green walls and room dividers.

Philip Vanhoutte, a biophilia expert at Nature At Work, says: “Nature is not a luxury, but a basic need. Biophilia is ingrained in us. Start with a nature audit: where are natural elements already present? What is missing? We use the Biophilic Workplace Scan for this.”

A good plan comes about when the design, materials, colours, textures and plants are all harmonised. “There are so many possibilities that making a well-considered choice can take a lot of time. That’s why we’ve created mood boards. For every style, we have a solution featuring pots, planters and, of course, suitable plants. And naturally, we also take functionality into account: we even have acoustic planters.”

Nature At Work is, in short, the natural way of working: an office where nature works for us, and we work in and with nature.
