Our green wall and biophilic design

A design concept that brings connectivity to the natural environment and promotes health and wellness.
OUR PHILOSOPHY

We're bringing nature to our workspace to promote connectivity between people and the living environment. It is widely known that plants in the workplace increase productivity and wellbeing by around 15%, according to this study.

Nature is seamlessly woven into the design to create a living workspace. Abundant natural lighting, indoor plants, and natural materials create a biophilic atmosphere that enhances well-being, reduces stress, and boosts creativity.

“Biophilic design takes everything we love about being out of the office, and places it inside our work environments. The outcome is our people feeling more at home, and in an environment where we promote wellness for our people,”  says Brandy Burdeniuk, Avison Young's Director of ESG in North America.
