About Us

We work to help architects, interior designers, and developers create spaces that promote the well-being, health, and productivity of occupants while fostering a deep connection to the natural world.

Biophilic design is both an ancient practice and a rapidly growing field that focuses on incorporating natural elements into the built environment to enhance human well-being as well as the aesthetic of the built environment. 

Our company is at the forefront of this movement, and we are zealous about helping our clients create healthy, sustainable, and beautiful spaces. Our enthusiasm comes from creating environments that not only captivate the senses but also nurture the well-being of all those who inhabit them.

Our Approach

Our approach to biophilic design using moss as a design material is to create a space that is both aesthetically pleasing and beneficial to human health. Moss is a living organism (that we utilize in its dormant state) that has many positive effects on the environment, including improving air quality, reducing noise pollution, aiding in attention restoration, and enhancing creativity.  It is also a sustainable material that does not need watering or misting and requires little to no maintenance.

We use moss in the core design element of our work, including wall coverings, branded designs, lighting fixtures, and ceiling treatments. We also use it to create biophilic sculptures and installations. Moss can be a powerful tool for creating healthy and sustainable environments.

John A. Marshall Company Showroom
A unique and key feature of the John A. Marshall Company showroom is the 30-foot curved moss wall we created for them. The moss creates a calming and relaxing atmosphere and dampens ambient noise. The moss wall and ash wood stadium seating are also an ideal setting for photos from John A. Marshall Company partners and collaborators.

The moss map is a beautiful reminder of the work that Heart to Heart does all over the world, and it is a symbol of hope and resilience. The moss map is a popular spot for visitors to take photos, and it is a great conversation starter about the important work Heart to Heart does across the globe.

The Shield Club is a luxury suite at Children's Mercy Park Stadium, the home of Sporting KC soccer team. It is located on the west side of the stadium and offers stunning views of the field. The club has its own private entrance, bar, and restrooms. It also has a floor-to-ceiling moss wall, a feature that underscores the commitment of Huthtamaki Concessions and Sporting KC to sustainable practices. The moss wall that spans floor to ceiling and around the corner provides a “must-see” destination for guests to enjoy.
