Commercial Real Estate Managers have a unique opportunity to improve their outdoor environment in corporate settings with well-designed and manicured landscaping. Design elements of the relaxation garden help reduce stress by incorporating design components of nature in the garden. The natural environment presents stimuli that supports and encourages relaxation and social group activities.


Interaction Stimulates and Soothes The Soul

People can interact with nature through the plethora of diverse plant types creating visual interest throughout the seasons. The architectural surroundings create a stimulating environment encouraging social conversation for visitors, clients and employees.  The soothing natural sound of running water softens nearby noise by creating a relaxing environment helping to calm the spirit during a stressful day.

Studies Have Shown The Health Benefits of Outdoor Relaxation Spaces

Research has been conducted in various outdoor spaces showing the therapeutic benefits of relaxation gardens. Roger Ulrich, a professor and director of the Center for Health Systems and Design at Texas A & M University, found that viewing natural scenes or elements fosters stress recovery by evoking positive feelings, reducing negative emotions, effectively holding attention / interest, and blocking or reducing stressful thoughts.
