Life is Art
"The Shelter is a curated lifestyle destination designed to explore, inspire and share."
GreenAir were tasked with adding feature planting to compliment the "relaxed artistic experience for the discerning shopper".
"It is an experience unbound by convention, offering exceptional and discerning objects that transcend time, fashion, places and life stages."
Art is Life
Three Large Ficus Benjamina, housed in strong and industrially inspired steel planters, create a foundation and linear aesthetic through the spine of the gallery-esque retail space.
Over time, these trees have been grown and shaped to explore a more natural aesthetic, taking cues from biomicry and their individual locations within the building.
Light levels reach each plant differently, and rather than working to create uniformity and "standard" foliage grooming practice, our skilled horticulturalists have been afforded the freedom to play and work with the natural growth, all the while maintaining healthy foliage and root systems for the established planting.
GreenAir brings the natural world into urban environments, revitalising space and helping reconnect people with nature. Their plants transform workplaces, enhance performance and nurture well-being, for you to hire.
Beyond an aesthetic transformation, GreenAir means healthier air, and increased vitality.
Since 2003, we’ve closely collaborated with architects, designers, landscape architects, developers and builders to create over 300 natural, beautiful installations.
As a result, we’re seen as New Zealand’s leaders in green solutions, renowned for our ’can-do’ attitude and technical expertise.
We provide a complete service from concept through to design, taking total ownership of fabrication, delivery, installation, and on-going care and maintenance – always working in collaboration with other horticulture experts if and when required.
