Greening Your Workspace: Enhance Welfare and Productivity with Office Plants

Behaviour wanted to change

Lack of plants in workspaces

Intention

I want to have more knowledge about the types of plants that can be incorporated into office spaces, in order to improve my workplace air quality, and lower stress levels in the office.

Nudge Description

The incorporation of plants in office spaces reduces the levels of stress and oxygenates the workspace creating a happier, healthier and more productive work environment. We have designed a catalogue.

Instructions:
  1. Look at your office, where do you think is there space for plants?
  2. When you find some space is time to choose your plants. We have created a catalogue of plants that will be suitable for the office. Choose one according to your taste and necessities. Questions to ask yourself before choosing your plants:
    • Where does the light come in?
    • Is it a transit area?
    • How often will I be able to water it?
    • Is the space small or large?
  3. All this information will help you select the plants that best suit your office.
  4. Select your plant.
  5. Now it is time to enjoy watching it grow while benefiting from their company.
