Green Plants for Green Buildings
10 Reasons for Including Plants in a Green Interior
1. Reduce employee absenteeism
2. Make buildings look more welcoming
3. Improve the indoor environment
4. Make a design statement
5. Increase tenant occupancy and retention
6. Affect employee productivity and satisfaction
7. Increase retail spending
8. Direct pedestrian traffic
9. Soften less attractive building features
10. Reflect the holidays and changing seasons
Let's face it... there is nothing more natural about "Going Green" than with the addition of live plants to your office space or lobby.
Information provided by Green Plants for Green Buildings a 501C3 organization whose mission is a commitment to informing decision makers about the benefits with the inclusion of interior plants in our indoor environments.
