Frequently Asked Questions
What is biophilic design?
Biophilic design is a design philosophy that incorporates natural elements into built environments to connect people with nature. In an office setting, this helps enhance employee wellbeing and improve overall quality of life within the workplace.
Can we create a custom design for your indoor space?
We sure can! We offer bespoke designs tailored to your space’s layout, aesthetic and functional needs. Our team will collaborate closely with you to ensure the final result aligns with your vision.
Can the Hybrid planter design be customised to our site?
Yes. Hybrid SuDS Planters are available in a range of sizes and finishes and can be tailored to fit the specific drainage requirements, dimensions and aesthetic of your site.
Can we add our branding to the custom planters?
Yes. We offer options for branding, including logos, colours and custom designs, so planters can be tailored to reflect your organisation or project identity.
Are Bio Habitat SuDS Planters suitable for schools or public spaces?
Yes – the planter is a brilliant engagement and learning tool that supports curriculum links and community action.
Can planters be designed to fit our exact site dimensions?
Yes. Custom planters can be designed to fit any specific site dimensions, whether that’s fitting into a tight high-street pedestrianised zone, working around existing street infrastructure, or acting as a barrier along a particular boundary line.
What materials are custom planters made from?
Our custom planters are commonly manufactured from durable materials such as Corten steel, powder-coated steel or timber, chosen to suit the aesthetic and performance requirements of each project.
Can Bio Habitat SuDS Planters be customised?
Yes, the SuDS planters can be adapted to site conditions or education/interpretation goals.
How durable is your street furniture?
Our products are built from robust materials designed specifically for outdoor, high-footfall environments. This ensures long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance, even in busy public spaces.
How does a Bio Habitat SuDS Planter support biodiversity?
Through features like bee bricks, bug hotels, a watering hole, hollow stems, and a hedgehog house, the SuDS Planter provides a diverse set of wildlife habitats.
Can street furniture be customised for our project?
Yes. Our scalable, modular approach means elements can be configured or customised to create furniture tailored to specific public spaces, rather than a one-size-fits-all solution.
What street furniture ranges do we offer?
Our standard ranges include six flexible, modular varieties – Tulipa, Muscari, Allium, Galanthus, Crocus and Scilla – each designed to be adapted to different spaces and project requirements. Explore our ranges for more detail.
Can green roofs be installed on sloped roofs?
Green roofs can be installed on slopes up to 45°, though additional support systems may be needed for steeper pitches.
How do you choose the right locations and plants for a living green wall?
The main consideration when installing a living wall is the structural strength of the wall. Otherwise, living walls can be installed in almost any location, whether sunny, shady, or windy. Whatever the environment, we will identify plants that can thrive in that space.
Are there different types of green roofs?
Yes, extensive green roofs are lightweight and low-maintenance, while intensive green roofs resemble rooftop gardens and support deeper planting.
What is biophilic design?
Biophilic design is an architectural and design philosophy that seeks to integrate nature and natural patterns into human-made spaces. The term “biophilia” means “love of life or living systems,” emphasising our innate connection and attraction to nature. In essence, biophilic design acknowledges the human need for nature and harnesses this connection in modern built environments.
How can biophilic design transform disused school areas?
Biophilic design has the power to rejuvenate neglected or underutilised spaces. By integrating natural elements, what might have been an ignored corner can become a thriving hub for learning and relaxation. The transformation of such areas into green spaces, reading nooks, or sensory gardens can provide students with additional zones for exploration, relaxation, and learning outside the confines of a traditional classroom.
How does biophilic design benefit learning spaces?
In educational settings, biophilic design offers many benefits. Spaces infused with natural elements can lead to improved concentration, reduced stress, and heightened creativity among learners. Natural light, plant life, and organic materials can create an atmosphere that is both calming and stimulating, fostering an optimal environment for both teaching and learning. The sensory stimulation from these natural elements aids cognitive function, enhancing the retention of knowledge and encouraging collaborative learning.
What materials do we use for our planters?
We design, fabricate and install planters in a wide range of materials including; powder coated steel, metal, galvanised steel, hardwood, weathering steel, timber, softwood and more.
What is a living wall?
A living wall – also called a green wall, plant wall, or vertical garden – is a vertical structure covered with living plants, providing a sustainable and creative way to bring nature into urban spaces.
What is biophilic design?
Biophilic Design is an innovative way of designing the places where we live, work and learn, that better connect us with nature, with numerous benefits to our health and well-being.
What types of products and projects can we design?
We design for a variety of projects, including commercial and residential spaces, rooftop gardens, public spaces and educational institutions. Our services are adaptable to different scales and settings.
Can we accommodate custom design requests?
Absolutely. We specialise in creating custom designs. Whether it’s a unique planter, office space or tailored planting scheme, we bring each client’s vision to life.
How do we design a planting scheme?
Plant selection is dependent on the product and the space. Following a site visit, our horticultural experts will carefully select a scheme that considers aspects such as maintenance needs, biodiversity support and water management.
