The studio even created a desk with plant holders for legs so that individuals could add greenery to their homes on a much smaller scale

Additionally, to this, when working on Maggie's Centre in Leeds UK, they designed a room with a timber interior that is flanked with greenery to ensure they had the right structure for plant pots. The centre is intended to give cancer patients a break with its grass-covered roof.
