Natura ... Creating environments where PEOPLE THRIVE!™
Natura is an interior horticultural design, installation and maintenance firm servicing all major markets in Texas. We care for PLANTS & PEOPLE within the built environment. Our purpose and passion is to create environments where PEOPLE THRIVE—and we do this by designing innovative ways to reconnect people with nature. We incorporate live plants, greenwall systems and holiday decor packages in the spaces where we live, work, learn and play.
We humans have a biophilic drive—an innate affinity and desire to connect with nature, both indoors and out. This instinctive attachment we posses for the living world is an increasingly fundamental consideration when designing and developing workspaces with a purpose for performance. By creating healthy and productive habitats that engage our occupants at an innate level we can energize and enable people to thrive in our urban environments. Adding live interior plants to your space not only reflects the aesthetic benefits of the outside world but also raises morale, contributes to long term employee retention, and makes everyone more comfortable, more creative, more productive—and even healthier.
