Biophilic Design: Spruce’n Up the Workspace

Description:

Warm sunlight on your face, the rustle of bright leaves, and the hint of wildflowers in the air – I bet you don’t picture those as indoor sensations. Perhaps you reserve those feelings as “holiday experiences” and wistfully relegate them to future vacation dreams as you toil away in your built environment.

That may have been the way of the past, but today’s thought-leaders are bringing nature inside – from lighting design that enhances well-being, to indoor plants that improve moods, and subtle scent effects that invigorate and uplift.

Come play with us – experience different types of scents and how they can have different impacts. Ask us questions – find out how different biophilic design elements can impact moods. And take away a hand-made planter to start your own desk garden.
