We're Still Having a Moment

Biophilic design is not a trend - it is a movement. It is the practice of connecting people and nature within built environments and creating a healthy coexistence with nature. Biophilic design can transform our communities and ensure man-made structures and urban environments function in harmony with the natural world. 

There are many exciting things happening in our industry and we want to keep you aware of all the possibilities, initiatives, and health advantages of having more biophilic elements in your residences and workspaces!

🌿 Architects, product manufacturers, and stylists are showcasing biophilic design in all types of man-made environments - from office spaces, industrial warehouses, and rooftop gardens!
🌿 Coworking spaces are abundant, flourishing with interior plants and natural elements, and increasingly popular in 2022 due to the adoption of hybrid work models.
🌿 Interior designers and stylists are still heralding shades of green, botanical materials and textiles, and interior plants as unrivaled design choices.

The horticulture instustry is thriving with creativity and abilities to bring more nature to built environments for the health and wellness of all humans. We hope to inspire you to join us.

With gratitude,

How to Decorate with the Top 2022 Home Trend: Biophilia

“Although we now spend the majority of our time indoors, the desire to connect with nature is written in our DNA. For our hunter-gatherer ancestors, nature was the source of food, clothing, shelter, and other basic necessities. Thousands of years later, our needs can be easily met without foraging or hunting, but this pull toward the outdoors remains embedded in our psyches. The challenge, then, is to figure out how to incorporate nature into our mostly indoor lives. That's where biophilic design comes in.”
