Moss walls have become a popular trend for both residential and commercial spaces, and it’s easy to see why. They come in a variety of shades, from bright green to muted gray, each with its own unique qualities and aesthetic appeal. The different shades of moss are often combined to create a unique and visually stunning design.

Let’s explore – “Different shades of MOSS”

Lemon-Green Moss
When most of us hear the word “moss,” we think of bright green moss. This vibrant green moss is typically found in damp, shaded areas and can grow in clumps or mats. With its bright color, it can bring life to even the most mundane spaces, creating a sense of tranquility and calmness.

Forest Green Moss
Dark green moss is a more muted shade of green than bright green moss. With its deep, rich color, it adds a sense of depth and texture to a space. Mosses like this can thrive in cool, damp environments, such as forests and other shaded areas.

Medium-Green Moss
Yellow-green moss is a less common shade of moss, but it can be found in certain areas. It is often found growing on rocks or other hard surfaces, and its texture and appearance are unique. The bright color of the plant adds vibrancy to any space, making it a perfect option for gardeners or outdoor enthusiasts.

Mint-Green Moss
It is a stunning shade of moss that has a bluish tint to it. This moss absorbs light and creates a stunning hue. Moss with a blue-green color can reduce anxiety and create a calmer atmosphere.

These are just a few examples of moss shades, and there can be many more variations depending on the species and environment. By soaking, spraying, or painting moss, it can be artificially dyed in different colors. Mosses sometimes change their color throughout the year as they react to changes in light, moisture, and temperature.

So when we wouldn’t want to stay in a plastic pot, why should we subject our green buddies to the same?

To combat this, architects and designers are paying special attention to make workplaces less office-like and more like an open, green spaces.

Here are some post-pandemic Biophilic office trends:

VISUAL ELEMENT

Visual elements of nature reduce stress. In fact, even just exposure to the green color positively impacts creative performance.

AUDITORY ELEMENT

You must already know that the soothing waves and winds used in spas are supposed to be relaxing. Natural sounds speed up healing and psychological restoration by 37%, compared to city sounds or silence.

OLFACTORY ELEMENTS

Natural scents can trigger powerful memories in the human brain. So, using them in the office setting can induce emotions related to being outdoors.

LIGHT VARIABILITY

Our circadian rhythm changes with the change in light. Being exposed continuously to harsh artificial lighting can interrupt this rhythm, causing fatigue, boredom, and sleeplessness. So it’s important to let in as much natural light as possible.

Let’s take a look at some high-tech gadgets designed to help us take care of our green buddies:

This Wifi-connected plant pot, Planty by nthing, is a must-have if your main motto for houseplants is “keep it alive”. It constantly monitors the plant and waters it automatically, if needed. It also has an app that will notify you on your phone about the plant’s health.

The Smart Garden

This cultivation system by Click and Grow, with “NASA-inspired smart soil,” is an indoor garden you can set and forget about. This device is mainly for those who want to grow their own edible garden.

Hexa
