Type of project: Office Fit Out
The role of greenery in the workplace has gained significant attention for its positive impact on mental well-being and productivity. Apollo, a prominent insurance group based in London, sought to incorporate green elements in its 1 Bishopsgate office refurbishment project to create a calming and visually appealing environment for its employees. Given the growing trend of built-in desk planters, Apollo approached us for a solution that would offer the benefits of natural greenery without the need for constant maintenance.Modern Inviting Workspace
Apollo’s project goal was to transform their workspace into a modern, inviting area that would support employee productivity and well-being. They envisioned built-in desk planters strategically placed across workstations, creating a cohesive look and feel. The design needed to enhance the workspace with lush greenery without the ongoing maintenance demands typically associated with live plants. Our team proposed an artificial planting solution that would achieve the desired aesthetic while being hassle-free.
ChallengeConsistent Visual Appeal
Apollo wanted a vibrant, natural look that would remain consistent over time, eliminating the typical issues of wilting and seasonal changes associated with live plants.
SolutionTransformed Office Space
To meet Apollo's needs, we provided the following solutions: • Durable Artificial Plants: We supplied a selection of high-quality, lifelike artificial plants designed to withstand the wear and tear of a bustling office environment. The plants were carefully chosen to match the aesthetic of the space and offer long-term visual appeal. • Low-Maintenance Design: Our artificial plants provided Apollo with a solution that required no watering, pruning, or replacement, allowing their team to focus on work without the distraction of plant care. The result was a transformed office space at 1 Bishopsgate that fostered a positive atmosphere and promoted employee well-being. Our partnership with Apollo has since inspired similar projects, reinforcing the trend of built-in desk planters as a workplace enhancement.
