Located at St Katherine Docks, London, these offices have an eclectic mix of interior plant displays giving a relaxed feel to the space. An impressive 18m x 2.3m living wall planted in waves creates a unique design and is the main focal point in the reception area whilst displays within the office and restaurant area range from small table arrangements to 2m tall floor-standing displays created using a varied selection of specimen plants, flowering Bromeliads and succulents - all of which inject a variety of colour and texture.

The contractor maintains the scheme with two operatives spending approximately two hours per week on maintenance. The living wall is situated in the main thoroughfare and restricted access times in the busy restaurant require the team to carry out their duties with minimal impact on those working in or visiting this young company’s premises.
