Biophilic design.

By Glenside in Reading for clients across the UK.

Nature used to be all around us, so why should that change?

Being in nature can help us feel relaxed and calm, however studies have found that humans now spend as much as 93% of their time indoors.


Biophilic design has developed as a result of this - bringing the tranquillity of nature indoors due to the understanding that nature is both biologically and psychologically beneficial to us. By integrating natural elements into your office, you can maximise the sense of wellbeing, comfort, and calm.

Bring nature into your office.

Biophilic design is becoming increasingly popular amongst our clients. We have successfully integrated elements of nature into our clients' offices in a number of ways, including:


  • Adding planter units on top of storage to create calming natural areas.
  • Creating a living wall – covered in real plants or artificial plants as a striking, and energy-saving, addition to the office.
  • Including plants as dividers between different work areas, for a creative use of space.
  • Incorporating dried moss throughout the office for a low-maintenance natural touch – these can even be branded or shaped in the company logo.
  • Using artificial or dried plants throughout the space, capturing the benefits of biophilic design without the maintenance.
