TanteLouise is a leading healthcare organisation in the Brabantse Wal region, known for its forward-thinking approach to elderly care. A new support services office was established in Bergen op Zoom to provide a modern setting where staff can collaborate comfortably in a warm, welcoming environment. At the core of the brief was the desire for an optimal greenery experience that integrated seamlessly with the architect's interior concept.
Creative solutions for a rich greenery experience
The architect's interior layout incorporated sleek built-in planters and joinery. However, these turned out to be relatively shallow, meaning standard plant arrangements would struggle to achieve the desired volume and depth. The challenge was to deliver a lush, natural display within these fixed technical constraints to truly bring the space to life.
From concept to completion
Building on the architectural design, we refined the planting scheme to address these practical constraints. To overcome the limited depth of the joinery, we introduced varied, multi-tiered planting: a curated mix of foliage selected to deliver maximum depth and density, even within shallow containers.
The bespoke cabinet planters and room dividers feature a harmonious combination of living plants and premium artificial greenery. Dense bamboo arrangements serve as natural zoning screens in the restaurant, while low planter units define circulation routes and subtly shield desk areas. The installation is further enhanced by standalone pots with broad-leaved statement plants and a discreet scent delivery unit in the main reception foyer, creating a complete sensory arrival experience.
The result
The new tanteLouise service office projects calm, warmth, and visual continuity. Despite the spatial limits of the shallow planters, the scheme delivers a rich, textured canopy throughout. Every element - from the custom joinery and planting to the ambient scenting - aligns seamlessly to create a welcoming, inspiring workspace.
Research by Ambius and the University of Technology Sydney shows that, under controlled conditions, plants interact with volatile organic compounds such as petrol fumes.
In collaboration with the University of Groningen, Ambius discovered that workplace plants contribute to higher satisfaction, improved concentration, and positive support during daily task execution.
Research by Wageningen Environmental Research indicates that plants enhance the workplace experience, increase relative humidity, and support overall working comfort.
