The beauty in a plant Office plants can be either natural or artificial depending on the preference of the person occupying the office and the effect they want the plants to have on the environment around them. These plants are a sign of beauty and warmth to otherwise very dull offices that for a long time have lacked this effect. Some of the plants have very beautiful leaves and flowers that bring color to the office therefore they bring beauty and life to the professional world. Most offices are low light spaces with machines and cabinets that are so boring, they are therefore not motivating, having plants in the office bring a serene environment that give the impression that one is working outdoors in a garden therefore, giving a calm and relaxing place to work from. This type of environment is not only relaxing but also motivates the employees therefore making them more productive and result oriented. In a world where people are cutting down trees to build cities, plants have become a rare sight in the city therefore; people lack the effect of living in a natural environment with the beauty of nature. The office plants give the impression of nature and also a form of planet conservation. The planet needs trees for its survival and having such plants in our offices we ensure that we fulfill this mission; this is because these office plants give the office environment fresh air and improve oxygen circulation within the rooms. The trees take up the carbon dioxide produced by humans and produce oxygen that is very vital to both humans and the environment in general. Architecture has also embraced office plants in their designs to bring back the natural concept that was used in ancient days when offices and homes were built under trees and nature was given a priority. With the high rate of globalization and economic growth, parks and other natural recreational facilities are being eliminated and in the near future trees will be a thing of the past. This is what is pushing major developed cities like China to embrace office plants in their interior landscaping plans when building their modern offices. It is however, important for one to consider the type of plants to put in the office especially if the office is shared. Some of the plants produce pollen grains which can be allergic to people or produce smell that is not very pleasant for the indoor environment. Some plants require sunshine to grow well therefore one should consider the amount of sunshine getting into the office. If the office is located in a low light position, the occupier should consider plants that require low light to grow or they can buy the artificial plants. Some of the plants also dry and shed their leaves at some point making the office dirty; the occupier should therefore learn more about a plant before buying them to avoid having litter in the office. Office plants are a sign of beauty and life; therefore, people should adapt them to make the office environment more serene and beautiful.
