Floora is born, the raised floor that brings greenery into indoor spaces


Floora is a flexible, modular and customisable system of indoor greenery, easily adaptable to any context in which raised flooring is present.

It is now universally recognised that the presence of greenery in enclosed spaces has a positive influence on the psychophysical well-being of the #people who live there. From reducing stress levels to improving concentration, but also regulating the quantity of humidity in the air, its cleanliness and climate quality: man's symbiotic relationship with flora is in the spotlight today and is one of the future scenarios of #design. This is how Floora was born, a broad and visionary project in which gardening, #design and home automation converge: a sustainable "revolution" promoted by Nesite's know-how - specialised in the creation of raised floors - and which allows to #design flexible #green areas on various levels, in public or private indoor spaces. The starting point is the raised floor, also pre-existing, with respect to which it is possible to replace some panels with Floora module, composed of trays in which to house personalised #green areas and create separating or decorative elements. The trays are connected to hydroponics systems that guarantee easy plant maintenance, also thanks to a water level indicator and a health monitoring system. The modules are extremely flexible, interchangeable, easy to insert and their composition, available in various heights, can be selected directly on Floora website. Ample space is also given to customisation: in addition to the essences, presented individually in an extensive #online catalogue that illustrates their characteristics, or even in a range of mixes already designed by the company, it is possible to choose the colour of the expanded clay or the plant cover, in line with the surrounding environment. Floora thus promotes a #design idea that is to all intents and purposes "green", sentivive to the wellbeing of #people and the environment.

The importance of greenery in indoor spaces

 Recent studies conducted by the Environmental Protection Agency show that the air in indoor spaces (homes, offices, shops) on many occasions measures up to 5 times more polluting agents than those breathed in large cities. Elements of a biological nature (such as bacteria and mould), of a physical nature (electromagnetic waves) and of a chemical

 derivation (including smoke or building materials) compromise the healthiness of a space and inevitably affect the psychophysical well-being of the #people who live in it.

Further problems are due to humidity and heat levels, both values increased in winter by heating systems and in summer by closed-circulation air conditioning systems. A solution to all these problems is offered today by the #design of #green areas, with which it is possible to restore the climatic quality of an environment and significantly affect the level of perceived well-being. In fact, cleaner air reduces stress and improves health, as well as the capacity for regeneration and above all concentration. Plants produce steam and regulate humidity, but they also absorb heat and noise, and filter the air by neutralising harmful substances. They are essential to improve the quality of work and life. Each plant has its own characteristics and special predisposition: ferns help to absorb formaldehyde, palms vaporize a lot of water, ivy even filters ammonia...

In short, #green is healthy, and is no doubt the future of #design.
