Why place plants in an office? Research has proven that more greenery at the office reduces stress, makes us feel happier, and increases our productivity. Additionally, office plants create a cozy atmosphere and transform the office into a cheerful and lush space. Most plants also don’t need much light, which is ideal if you work in an office with little daylight.
Reasons why plants in the office are good:
- Improves concentration and productivity
- Reduces stress
- Lower absenteeism
- Boosts creativity
- Absorbs noise
3 tips to make your office green
A large part of our productivity at work is determined by the atmosphere of the workplace. Besides a tidy desk, it helps to put plants in the office or even on your desk. With these 3 tips, you can transform your office into a lush and productive workspace.
Tip 1: Place large green plants
Does your office have bare and empty corners? These are the perfect spots to place a green plant. Choose an elegant, tall plant to fill the empty space. This immediately gives you an eye-catcher in the office, for example with our Dracaena Marginata and Areca Palm. Try placing these green office plants on an elevation, such as a side table or wooden crate. This gives the plants a stage and places them higher in the room, ensuring they are visible to every employee in the office.
Tip 2: Decorate your desk
A gray and boring desk? Why not put a plant on your desk, so it’s always in sight and you experience the benefits of office plants close to you. Create fun combinations of small and large green plants and place them in your favorite decorative pot.
Tip 3: Exotic orchids for more color in the office
Orchids provide a cheerful boost in the office with their beautiful colors. You can place these on your desk, on cabinets, or on a side table. And did you know that orchids bloom for about three months and can bloom again after they’ve finished? A fun project to get the orchid to bloom again together with your colleagues.
Don’t forget to crown yourself or a colleague as the plant caretaker. On our care page, we tell you more about caring for orchids and green plants.
