Interior planting supports the employee experience by bringing spatial calm, enriching the indoor environment, and enhancing daily working comfort. Integrating plants into the workplace nurtures staff well-being through the principle of biophilia. This fosters a more welcoming workplace atmosphere and elevates overall employee satisfaction.

What is employee experience and how do you build it?

Many HR professionals and managers attempt to boost workplace satisfaction with temporary perks. Yet, employee satisfaction scores often remain static, as employee experience encompasses far more than isolated rewards.

The employee experience rests on three main pillars:

  • Culture: The atmosphere within the workplace and the organizational structure.

  • Technology: The tools and software employees rely on to perform their work.

  • Physical workspace: The design and layout of the working environment, including natural light, artwork, and planting.

Forcing people to adapt to outdated workplace practices yields limited success. Organisations achieve far greater results by adapting the physical environment to meet the needs of their workforce.

What is the role of biophilia and plants in the workplace?

An effective way to enhance the physical workspace is through interior planting. This relies heavily on the principle of biophilia: the innate human desire to connect with nature.

Our operational specialists frequently observe that greened spaces immediately feel more comfortable, helping employees settle in faster and experience greater spatial tranquility.

By bringing nature indoors using foliage and organic elements, you enrich your team's daily working experience. Furthermore, interior landscaping delivers distinct practical advantages:

  • Acoustic attenuation: Plants reduce disruptive background noise and ambient sound reverberation across the floor.
  • Balanced indoor environment: Foliage contributes to stabilizing relative humidity levels.
  • Mental well-being: Natural elements provide visual anchors that foster a calm, composed working atmosphere.
     

What does scientific research say about the impact of plants?

The positive influence of greenery within working environments is highlighted across various academic studies:

  • Fulfilling workplace experience and focus: Employees with direct sightlines to plants report a more pleasant working environment and maintain composure during complex tasks (Source: Washington State University).
  • Reduced workplace friction: Introducing plants enhances overall perception of the office environment and boosts satisfaction with spatial quality (Source: Fjeld T., HortTechnology).
  • Restorative relaxation: Visual exposure to foliage offers eyes a restorative break, supporting a calm atmosphere across the office (Source: University of Vermont).
