Garden design in the office has become familiar because of the increasingly popular trend of creating green workspaces for businesses recently. With many years of experience in the field, PYRA Engineering would like to share with you the necessary knowledge to help you choose the most beautiful and creative office garden design style.

1. Overview of the office garden

What is the office garden?

The office garden is a space where natural elements (trees, flowers, miniatures, etc.) are arranged in harmony to create freshness, ventilation, and beauty for the office.

Unlike indoor gardens, villas, office gardens do not require space separation but can be integrated right into the working space.

The effect of garden design in the office

Currently, office garden design is chosen by many business owners as an important element in green office design. The arrangement of the garden in the office brings many outstanding benefits, including:

·         Helping businesses create a new image: The garden helps to green the office, bringing an office space filled with fresh green colors. Each employee feels the new and unique image of the business.

·         Inspire creativity for employees: The garden in the office will give employees new inspiration to work, helping them to be more creative. Thanks to that, the quality and volume of work will be guaranteed to be completed.

·         Make an impression in the eyes of customers and partners: Professional garden design gives businesses great values ​​such as aesthetics, recognition as well as the ability to promote brands. When visiting the office, customers will quickly feel impressed with the carefully decorated space.

·         Bringing an airy, cool, and fresh space: The green tree system helps to purify the air, giving businesses an airy, fresh space with bold natural beauty.

·         Create a comfortable working environment for employees: Employees will have to work almost 8 hours a day, so stress can make them feel helpless and depressed at work. The creation of an office garden will be an ideal relaxation area for employees when they are tired.

However, designing an office garden is much more difficult than putting potted plants and green partitions into the office. This requires experienced architects to work hard to find a plan to arrange trees and objects to create the most beautiful office landscape.

2. Some notes when designing a beautiful office garden

Ensuring the principles of garden design

The basic garden design needs to ensure the harmony of aesthetics as well as the quality of the work:

·         Ensure color harmony, between the color of the garden and the color of the office background, between the colors of the items in the garden.

·         Ensure a balance factor to bring a new space but also optimize costs for businesses. The office garden model has a suitable arrangement between the ratio of trees and employees' seats, creating a reasonable working space.

·         Should choose a highlight for the garden, to help the design have its mark, not be mixed. This highlight can come from the arrangement of trees, the selection of trees as well as decorative accessories.

Arrange the garden by the area, design position, space

A beautiful garden design needs to ensure the balance of the appropriate area with the total office area. At the same time, the space where the garden is located must also ensure the connection with other spaces. The location of the garden should be in harmony, increasing the aesthetic value of the office space.

You should place your garden in locations with lots of sunlight, near windows, open surfaces, or under skylights. At these locations, plants will absorb the maximum amount of light needed for photosynthesis. Architects need to ensure that the garden area is large enough but does not affect other areas such as a pantry, restroom, or main working area. Trees are neatly trimmed or arranged according to rules, avoiding entanglement when moving and working.

Arrange suitable green plants

Choosing the right plants for the office garden model is very important. You can choose:

·       Indoor plants that can grow slowly or have a moderate size such as Japanese bamboo, fern, orchid, betel nut, orchid, cactus, the needle of fortune,

·       Various kinds of flowering plants to increase flavor, and bring new and vibrant colors such as climbing roses, lily of the valley, apricot blossom, banana flower, bird's eye flower,...

·       Plants with mild fragrances help reduce the hormone cortisol, stress, and fatigue such as jasmine, mint, and fragrant lotus,...

Use appropriate materials and decorations

The garden is an impressive piece of architecture, it should be in harmony with the overall office space, so the decoration should not be too cumbersome and fussy. The decorations that are compatible with the garden such as wooden fences, wooden ledges, large pebbles, cobblestones, etc., although simple, help the garden become closer and more natural when placed in the overall space office.

If you want to design the garden in the direction of a green park, details such as porcelain statues, pebbles, stone benches, and stylized swings will be very suitable. If you choose to design the garden as a miniature forest, you should choose wooden furniture to increase the naturalness and suggest the wildness of nature.

Design a tree care system

Trees are an important factor that makes up the beauty and vitality of the office garden. You should arrange the garden in the places with the most light in the office, such as near the open surface with tempered glass or under the skylight. If it is not possible to place in these locations, arrange a lighting system with suitable light so that the plants can photosynthesize normally.

To maintain a beautiful office garden, it is necessary to learn carefully about each plant in the area and take care of it accordingly. Water-loving plants should be watered on time, plants that don't like water should be watered with the right amount of water to avoid flooding. The company should arrange automatic water distribution to save time on tree care while ensuring good growth. Watering plants with the right amount of water is one of the effective ways to care for garden plants.

Design of the garden structure system

The office garden has a connection with other workspaces, so when designing the garden space, it is necessary to ensure the following factors:

·       Ensure a solid, sustainable structure: The tree stands or the surrounding fence area need to have a solid structure to keep the trees fixed in position. For large trees, it is recommended to use a tree pedestal to protect the base, help the tree stand firm, and avoid affecting other areas in the office.

·       Less impact on the surrounding architectural structure: The garden should design a stable water supply and drainage system, avoiding water infiltration and blistering of the wall. The materials chosen when designing the garden need to use waterproof and moisture-proof wood such as HDF, MDF or use more moisture- and anti-mold paint.

·       Safety for users: The garden should be noted about the density of trees to ensure the amount of air ventilation, avoiding the situation of insects gathering in the office. Besides, trees should also be pruned with old leaves and branches to avoid falling and falling on employees when moving through this area.

3. Beautiful office garden designs

Vertical garden design, green wall

The current office decoration trend is to design a green, airy, and close to nature space to help people reduce stress and quickly regain their inspiration to work. One of the most popular ways is to design an office vertical garden.

Office vertical garden (wall garden) is a design that uses materials with sustainable structure, and good permeability to put green plants on the walls in the workplace. Trees are arranged vertically, running along the walls from low to high to help bring uniqueness to the office.

Office vertical gardens bring many benefits such as:

·       Effective space division plan: The rough and hard walls become softer and more vivid thanks to the covered green tree system. The walled garden now has two functions: decorating space and separating areas in the office, helping businesses optimize investment costs for furniture.

·       Space-saving landscape solution: For small offices that do not have much space, placing a garden on the wall surface is an effective solution. The impressive green space of the office is still guaranteed without the company needing to narrow the working area.

·       Create a harmonious, highly aesthetic overall space: Vertical garden design is associated with modern style, in harmony with the architecture, and creates a harmonious overall space, bringing high aesthetics. The familiar, boring plain walls will be adorned by the cool green walls of leaves and the brilliance of flowers.

·       Create an ideal working space: Vertical gardens provide a green space with abundant oxygen, helping to protect employees' health. Besides, the creation of green space helps employees feel more relaxed after stressful working hours.

When designing an office wall garden, we usually choose one of the following wall types:

·       Green wall: Use vines or small pots to easily stack on stainless steel / wooden shelves or be planted directly on the wall. This type of wall brings a lively beauty to the office thanks to a diverse and rich system of green trees.

·       Fake tree wall: Use artificial leaves and fake flowers for decoration. Businesses can save on maintenance costs while ensuring optimal durability.

·       Mossy wall: Use moss, horn moss, or real moss to plant on the office wall. Because moss has a fast growth rate but does not grow in height, it helps to keep the space neat and saves money on pruning trees.

Green garden design in the office

The mini green garden in the office is designed according to the arrangement of trees in clusters, close together in large numbers, creating a unique workspace. Often offices with a large area will be suitable for a green garden. However, small and medium-sized offices can also implement this design style.

Designing a green garden brings practical benefits to employees as well as business owners:

·       Create an ideal working space: The green garden provides a comfortable working space thanks to a system of trees covered with trees. Employees can rest and relax in this space, helping to regain inspiration when stressed.

·       Improve employee health: Thanks to the mechanism of photosynthesis, green plants bring abundant oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide in the office. Thanks to that, the air is conditioned, and employees also avoid respiratory diseases.

·       Create an impressive office image: The green garden appearing in the office will attract the attention of customers as well as partners when visiting. At the same time, the green color creates sympathy, towards freshness, making it easy for people to remember the corporate image. You can make use of the space to make a hanging garden or place a tree at the top of the file cabinet.

Building a green garden on the balcony or along the corridor of the work area is also an interesting idea. Small landscape office gardens can choose from a variety. You can choose plants with a medium growth rate that do not require much care...
