Living plants reduce the harsh visual effects of dominant vertical or horizontal architectural features found in the work environment. Interior landscape arrangements can serve a variety of purposes. In large, open areas such as lobbies they:

• Break up broad areas of visual space
• Can be arranged to create more intimate, sheltered seating modules
• Define traffic-flow patterns
• Create a positive impression for those entering a building for the first time

Plants make other, less apparent contributions to an office space. They are an attractive and inexpensive low-tech system for removing pollutants from the air, making for a healthier work environment.

The presence of living plants can generate a number of subtle, positive associations with your company and can have a significant impact on clients' perception of your business. In addition, many people associate living plants with a sense of quality and professionalism—helping to improve staff morale and even productivity levels.
