What are Corporate Gardens?
A corporate garden is a designated green space within a corporate or office setting designed and maintained either by the organization or by an outsourced Facility Management Provider. The main purpose of it is to enhance the aesthetic appeal of the office building and provide a space for employees to relax.
This concept of having a green space in office premises have been prospering a lot in the recent years, with many companies recognizing the benefits of having green spaces in their workplaces. These gardens can take many forms, from small indoor plants to large outdoor gardens, and can provide a range of benefits for employees.
Corporate gardens are typically designed to create a sense of peacefulness and relaxation. Walkways are often installed to guide visitors through the space, and benches are placed for relaxation and reflection. Fountains or small ponds are included to create a calming atmosphere and provide a focal point for the garden.
Corporate gardens can be found in various locations such as rooftops, patios, atriums, and parking lots, offering numerous benefits to both employees and businesses.
But why these companies are investing so much on Corporate Gardening?
