Biophilic design

Interior planting that's designed, not decorated

For Atlanta workplaces where the greenery is part of the architecture — designed with your team, installed to the plans, and maintained after the punch list.

Biophilic design is the practice of connecting occupants to nature inside the built environment — light, materials, views, and living planting. In a commercial interior, the planting is the part that changes every day: it grows, it responds to its conditions, and it either thrives or visibly declines.

That's where most installations fall short. A scheme is designed beautifully, installed well, and then nothing is scheduled to look after it. Within a year the planting is leggy, half the species have dropped leaves, and the design intent is gone — which is worse than having installed nothing.

We handle both halves: the design and installation of the planting itself, and the scheduled care that keeps it matching the original intent years later.

Who this is for

  • Architects & interior designers
  • Workplace strategists
  • Property managers & building owners
  • Facilities & workplace experience teams
  • Developers fitting out amenity space

Metro Atlanta commercial properties — offices, lobbies, amenity floors, hospitality and healthcare.

What we install

Planting types we design and build

Every photo in our work gallery is a real installation — no stock imagery.

Atrium & lobby installations

Large-scale plantings for the spaces everyone sees — including the species selection that survives a bright, tall, hard-to-service volume.

Planter runs & living dividers

Long plantings that separate zones on an open floor without a permanent wall, and that move when the floor plan does.

Layered tropical groupings

Mixed-species groupings that read as designed rather than purchased — layered by height, texture and leaf colour for depth.

Container & finish matching

Planters chosen against the interior palette, in finishes and sizes that complement the architecture instead of fighting it.

Statement specimen plantings

Single large specimens placed where the design needs a focal point — a lobby column, a window line, a reception backdrop.

Breakout, lounge & café planting

The amenity zones where people actually linger, planted for durability under heavy use rather than for a photograph.

Working with design teams

We install to your drawings

Or bring us in early and we'll help work out what the space actually needs.

  • Plans and finish palettes — send us the drawings and the material selections; we price and specify against them.
  • Container selection and samples — we can bring physical samples so the planter finish is decided against the actual interior, not a catalogue.
  • Submittals and documentation — for projects that require them, including insurance certificates for the site.
  • Install windows that fit the schedule — coordinating with the general contractor, the loading dock, and after-hours access so planting doesn't hold up a turnover.
  • Care handoff — a maintenance program quoted with the install, so the design intent is still there in year three.

Questions

Biophilic design questions

Yes. Design teams send us plans and finish palettes and we price and install to them — including container selection, samples, and submittals where the project requires them. We're equally comfortable installing what you've specified or proposing a planting scheme for a space you've already designed.

That's one of the most common things we install. Long planter runs separate zones and soften open floors without a permanent wall, and they're easier to move later when the floor plan changes. Photos of exactly this are in our work gallery.

Yes — atriums, tall lobbies, and amenity floors are routine for us, including the logistics that come with them: bringing in large specimens, working around height and access limits, and specifying species that will actually hold up in those light conditions.

It's usually part of the same engagement. A designed installation declines quietly if nobody is scheduled to look after it, so we quote the care program alongside the install — either a weekly, bi-weekly or monthly cadence depending on the space.

The research on biophilic design consistently associates interior planting with occupant experience — perceived comfort, connection to nature, and the character of a space — and buildings compete on exactly that. We stick to what we can stand behind: a well-designed, well-maintained installation is one of the few amenities every occupant walks past daily, and neglected plants send the opposite signal.
