The first impression is vital when you are greeting customers – whether in retail, hospitality, or business. From the moment someone steps foot on your property, they begin to form opinions about the quality of your product or service, as well as your business as a whole. Friendly people are important – but your overall design and ambiance will make lasting impressions on your customers’ hearts and minds, often in ways that they don’t even realize. The entry to your business should convey a crafted message, which is essential to building your brand and ensuring repeat and loyal business. One of the ways you can make a positive visual impact is by incorporating a green living wall. Not only does it speak to your commitment to sustainability, but a living wall is striking and beautiful.
Living walls are known by several names, including green walls and vertical gardens. They are vertical structures, often metal frames, that are covered in green living plants. These eco-friendly installations are showing up in many corporate settings, their popularity due in large part to their transformative power. Imagine turning a drab, sterile space into a lush, tropical setting – the difference is not only aesthetic, but it has psychological and emotional benefits for employees and visitors as well.
Let’s take a look at the walls that a living wall can benefit your business.
Cleaner Air and Better Air Quality: While your visitors won’t notice it visually, living walls (like most green plant installations) contribute to a healthier indoor environment. They work as organic air purifiers, eliminating toxins and removing pollutants that can cause lethargy, illness, and allergies. Cleaner air is immediately noticeable to the discerning nose, but over the long term can help to boost employee productivity and overall well-being for your customers and clients.
Striking Aesthetic Appeal: Living walls are a feast for the eyes. They deliver a striking contrast to the mundane nature of an office environment or the sterile, impersonal look of a medical facility. The vibrant hues and diverse textures of the plants create a mesmerizing visual focal point, drawing the eye and offering a unique alternative to traditional potted plants or artwork. When placed in your lobby or entranceway, they offer a captivating welcome your clients are sure to remember.
Visual Commitment to Sustainability: One of the most meaningful advantages of integrating a living wall into your lobby or entranceway is that it communicates your company’s recognition of environmental responsibility. A commitment to sustainability is important to consumers across the board, and a living wall puts your words into action. Living walls start conversations, draw interest, and invite questions. They make viewers aware of the importance of nature without speaking a word and infuse serenity and peace into a busy setting.
