Greening for Cafes & Hotels
We transform commercial and hospitality spaces into lush, biophilic environments using modular plant grids and living wall systems designed for high-traffic areas.
At the Sheraton Grand's Alfresco by Bene, we installed custom plant grids filled with terracotta pots. This modular system creates a beautiful and organized plant display, adding color and life to the restaurant's terrace seating area.
These tiered, freestanding planter units were designed for the entrance of Alfresco by Bene. They serve as natural space dividers, guiding guests into the restaurant while introducing a multi-level display of lush greenery.
In collaboration with the designers of The Fixx pub, we created these wall-mounted planter boxes. The colorful frames and green foliage act as decorative art pieces, contributing to the pub's modern and energetic atmosphere.
A simple yet elegant hanging ceramic planter adds a touch of green against the warm brick wall at the Sheraton Grand. Using hanging plants is an excellent way to draw the eye upward and add layers to an outdoor design scheme.
About this collection
Commercial spaces face heavy traffic and often variable light conditions, which is why we move away from static, potted plant arrangements. We implement modular plant grids and wall-mounted systems with integrated, automated irrigation that maintain foliage density year-round. This engineering approach eliminates the daily maintenance burden for your staff while ensuring the greenery remains a vibrant, consistent asset for your guests.
Hospitality and food service environments require more than just aesthetic appeal; they need robust, space-saving installations that can survive busy operational hours. We partner with designers and architects to integrate nature into the built environment, ensuring the installation adds functional value.
The Engineering Behind the Greenery
Our work in locations like the Sheraton Grand and The Fixx involves detailed planning. We use modular, wall-mounted systems that maximize vertical space, keeping floor areas open for seating and foot traffic. By utilizing professional-grade drainage and automated drip systems, we prevent water leakage and soil runoff, protecting your floors and furniture.
Why Strategic Plantscaping Matters
- Acoustic Management: In loud cafe settings, our dense moss and living wall installations act as soft-surface buffers, helping to dampen noise.
- Space Dividers: We use freestanding, tiered planter units to guide guest flow and create semi-private seating areas without constructing permanent walls.
- Air Quality: By integrating air-purifying plant selections like Philodendrons and Ferns, we improve the overall indoor atmosphere.
Our Process
We do not simply place plants. We assess the lighting, airflow, and layout of your property before proposing a system. Whether it is installing hanging planters to draw the eye upward or using high-density plant grids to convert a blank exterior wall, every installation is engineered for longevity and ease of care. We ensure your green features remain a permanent part of your venue’s identity, rather than a fleeting seasonal decoration.
