We
are breathing fresh air indoors and out with the launch of our latest
innovation, LivePicture – a framed arrangement of plants that can be hung on
either interior or exterior walls. The living ‘picture’ creates a striking,
space-saving focal point, as well as offering a natural way to improve air
quality.
We have created it to meet the increasing demand for inventive ways to use plants, which have long been valued for the health benefits and sense of wellbeing they bring but which, in traditionally planted schemes, can take up valuable space
Each
of our LivePictures feature a specially developed nutritionally balanced
mineral substrate able to support a wide variety of plant types, depending on
available lighting and level of maintenance needed. Measuring 112cm wide (plus
0.5cm for the frame), by 72cm (plus 0.5cm for the frame), the frame is 10cm
deep and incorporates a built-in reservoir. The picture, which weighs around
30kg, is attached to the wall with three bolts; it requires no power, no water
supply or drainage system, and only needs watering once a month.
For
a compact product, the health benefits of our LivePicture are broad. Inadequate
air conditioning, ventilation, emissions from computers, printers and paint all
contribute towards indoor levels of carbon dioxide and particulate pollutants,
while outdoor levels of pollution can be exceptionally high in urban areas. To counteract this, plants can provide a
pleasant humidity; remove carbon dioxide and particulate pollutants. In
addition, research has shown that plants can reduce stress, improve mood and,
in the case of indoor planting, increase
productivity in the workplace.
