20 Green Offices in Japan Full of Plants — KADOKAWA, MIXI and More
Planted islands, gardens and green floors — offices in Japan that bring plants into the workplace.
Japanese offices used to treat plants as decoration on the corner of a desk. The offices in this collection go further: planted islands that divide the floor, gardens set into lounges, and whole floors laid out around greenery — what Japanese calls ryokka (緑化), greening.
