Green Walls

Modern workplaces are evolving beyond traditional office design. Businesses today are seeking innovative ways to improve employee wellbeing, support sustainability goals, and create memorable spaces that leave a lasting impression on employees, clients, and visitors alike. An interior green wall offers the perfect solution.

A professionally designed living wall transforms ordinary walls into vibrant, thriving features filled with carefully selected living wall plants. Whether installed in reception areas, meeting rooms, collaborative spaces, or communal environments, a living green wall introduces nature directly into the workplace while delivering measurable benefits for people and businesses.

From improving indoor air quality to creating visually stunning focal points, a bespoke green wall system helps organisations embrace biophilic design principles while enhancing their workplace environment.

Every business is unique, which is why Ambius designs and installs bespoke living wall panels tailored to your brand, space, and objectives.

Benefits of Green Walls

A professionally installed green wall provides a wide range of benefits that extend beyond aesthetics.

Improved Air Quality

Plants naturally help improve indoor air quality by filtering airborne pollutants and releasing oxygen into the environment. Incorporating a living wall into your workspace can contribute to a fresher, healthier indoor atmosphere that supports employee wellbeing and comfort.

Thermal Regulation

A living green wall can help regulate internal temperatures by acting as an additional layer of insulation. This can help reduce temperature fluctuations throughout the year, supporting energy efficiency and creating a more comfortable environment for building occupants.

Enhanced Aesthetics and Wellbeing

Biophilic design has become a key consideration in modern workplace design. By reconnecting people with nature, green walls create visually appealing environments that can help reduce stress, improve mood, and increase workplace satisfaction.

Whether you're seeking inspiration for ideas for a garden wall in an outdoor setting or a sophisticated interior feature, a living wall brings natural beauty into commercial spaces while helping businesses create memorable experiences for employees and visitors.

WELL Building Credits/Certification

WELL is a building performance rating and certification system, with a focus on human well-being and employee productivity. This performance-based system was constructed around seven core concepts to measure, certify, and monitor our working environments. These seven concepts lay the foundation for maximising human health and wellness within the built environment.

The WELL Building Standard’s core concepts include: Air, Water, Nourishment, Light, Fitness, Comfort, Mind.

Natural Soundproofing

Open plan offices and collaborative workspaces often experience high levels of background noise that can impact concentration and productivity.

A living wall acts as a natural acoustic solution by absorbing, diffusing, and reducing sound reflections throughout a space. Unlike traditional partitions, a green wall system provides an organic alternative that enhances both functionality and appearance.

By helping to soften ambient noise, living walls can contribute to quieter meeting areas, more focused work environments, and improved employee comfort without compromising on design.

For workplaces looking to create distinct zones within busy environments, living wall panels offer an attractive and effective way to improve acoustics while maintaining an open and welcoming feel.

Green Wall Irrigation

At Ambius, every green wall system is supported by intelligent irrigation technology designed to maximise plant health while minimising maintenance requirements.

Our irrigation systems provide plants with the precise amount of water they need, helping to ensure consistent growth and long term performance. Automated monitoring and efficient water distribution reduce waste while supporting sustainability initiatives and operational efficiency.

The benefits include:

  • Reduced maintenance demands
  • Improved plant health and longevity
  • Efficient water usage
  • Consistent appearance throughout the year
  • Reliable performance for large-scale installations

Whether your project involves an interior living wall, a live wall outdoor installation, or a large-scale outdoor planting wall, our irrigation solutions are designed to support healthy plant growth and long term success.

How To Choose The Best Green Wall For Your Sector

Different industries have different workplace requirements, making it important to select the right green wall solution for your environment.

Workplace Managers

Focus on employee wellbeing, workspace aesthetics, and practical maintenance requirements. Reception areas, breakout spaces, and collaborative zones often benefit most from a feature living wall that enhances the employee experience.

Sustainability Officers

Consider how a green wall system can contribute to broader environmental and wellbeing strategies. Living walls can support biophilic design initiatives while helping organisations demonstrate their commitment to sustainable workplace practices.

Artificial Living Walls

There are some cases where living plants may not be a suitable option for your particular display. This can be due to anything from your maintenance budget, poor lighting or simply the temperature conditions may restrict the plants from thriving. This is where artificial plants come in; we can use life like replica plants to create incredibly realistic and visually stunning green walls. Only upon closer inspection you might be able to tell that the plants were artificial. Continuous irrigation and trimming is not required, making these great investments for any business looking to enhance their space and image.

Exterior Living Walls

Our exterior living wall system easily transforms cold walls into a warm, living surface. Using various planting options we can create a live exterior wall that suits not only your building but your business too. Let your creativity shine with a beautifully designed exterior living wall by Ambius.

Exterior living walls can give buildings natural protection, such as; from temperature fluctuations, UV-rays and they can also divert water away from the walls of your building during any heavy rain-fall.

Green Wall FAQs

 


  • What are the structural weight load requirements for a commercial living green wall

    The structural requirements for a commercial living green wall will vary depending on the size of the installation, the chosen planting system, and whether the wall is fully irrigated. As green walls contain plants, growing media, water, and support structures, it is important to assess the wall's load bearing capacity before installation. Ambius conducts a thorough site survey and works with building managers, architects, and contractors to ensure the chosen green wall system can be safely and securely installed.


  • Do Green Walls require a lot of maintenance?

    No. Modern living wall panels are designed to be low maintenance when supported by professional care and automated irrigation systems. Regular maintenance typically includes plant health checks, pruning, cleaning, and replacing any plants as required. Ambius provides ongoing maintenance services to keep your living wall looking vibrant, healthy, and performing at its best throughout the year.


  • Can a Green Wall be installed on any surface?

    In many cases, yes. Green walls can be installed on a wide range of interior and exterior surfaces, including plasterboard, concrete, brick, and partition walls. However, each location should be assessed individually to ensure it can safely support the chosen green wall system and accommodate irrigation requirements. A professional site survey will determine the most suitable installation method for your space.


  • Do Green Walls attract insects?

    A professionally maintained indoor living green wall should not attract insects. Plants are carefully selected for indoor environments and are regularly monitored as part of ongoing maintenance programmes. Proper irrigation management and routine plant care help minimise the risk of pests, ensuring your green wall remains a healthy and attractive feature within the workplace.


  • Does an indoor Green Wall require lighting to survive?

    Not always. The lighting requirements for a living wall depend on the location and the types of plants used. Areas with sufficient natural light may not require additional lighting. However, in spaces with limited daylight, specialist horticultural lighting can be installed to support healthy plant growth and maintain the appearance of the wall. Ambius will assess light levels during the design phase and recommend the most suitable solution.


  • What happens if the automated irrigation system fails?

    Modern irrigation systems are designed to be reliable and efficient, but contingency measures can be put in place to minimise any impact should a fault occur. During routine maintenance visits, irrigation components are inspected and tested to ensure they are functioning correctly. If an issue is identified, it can typically be resolved quickly before plant health is affected. Many systems also include monitoring capabilities that help identify problems early.


  • Can Green Walls be retrofitted onto existing interior office walls?

    Yes. In most cases, green walls can be retrofitted onto existing office walls without major structural alterations. This makes them an excellent option for organisations looking to enhance their workplace environment, improve employee wellbeing, or introduce biophilic design into an existing space. Following a site assessment, Ambius can recommend a bespoke living wall solution that integrates seamlessly with your current workplace design and infrastructure.
