Interior Design

For over 30 years, Benholm Group has been transforming a variety of spaces with innovative plant and floral displays. From our base in central Scotland, we proudly serve businesses across the UK, crafting designs that enhance environments and leave lasting impressions. Whether it’s offices, retail spaces, universities, or hospitality venues, our installations bring life and inspiration to any setting, creating welcoming and professional atmospheres for all.

BIOPHILIC

DESIGN

Biophilic design is the incorporation of nature and natural elements into the ‘built’ environment. You’ve probably already felt the benefits of it without even realising. Today it can be found anywhere from offices and hotels to the interior design and external landscaping of people’s homes or public spaces. We work with businesses, architects and interior designers across the UK to bring biophilic benefits to the inhabitants of their buildings.

Biophilic design includes the use of natural light, finishes, colours, views, and even air quality and acoustics. But plants offer one of the quickest, easiest and most affordable ways to access the major benefits of biophilic design. Even the most subtle use of plants can have very positive effects on people’s wellness.

Interior plants dont have to use materials that have an impact on the environment.

Enviroculture is our own-brand peat-free planting solution for many varieties of indoor plants, and is a viable alternative to traditional soil or compost.

We have been using it for many years, promoting the benefits of protecting our natural peatlands which are unique ecosystems providing massive amounts of natural carbon storage.

ONE OF A

KIND No two spaces are the same, and neither are our designs. Whether it’s a striking green wall or a custom indoor tree, we bring originality and flair to every setting, ensuring your project is truly one of a kind.

PICK THE PERFECT

PLANTERS We work with Europe’s leading manufacturers to provide you with a huge variety of unique planters to choose from that look stunning with both live and artificial plants.

WHAT IS

NORDIK MOSS? Nordik Moss is a sustainable material, harvested by hand from the forest floor, and is 100% biodegradable. We then preserve it using natural minerals, to stop it growing and maintain its fresh look.

The design possibilities with Nordik Moss are endless. You can frame it like a picture, transform a whole wall, or even incorporate it into furniture. We can create patterns, words, or logos, on flat, contoured or 3D surfaces, and you can choose from a spectrum of colours. Whatever your vision, our team can put it on the wall for all to see.

GO GREEN

BE SEEN Our living, moss, and artificial green walls are popular backdrops for photo opportunities, allowing your clients to underline their green credentials in a visual way.

LOOKS JUST LIKE THE

REAL THING The authentic look and feel of our artificial plants is ideal for high traffic areas, low light environments, or anywhere difficult to access for maintenance.

BRANDED BRILLIANCE We collaborate closely with you to seamlessly integrate your client's brand into our designs, incorporating logos, colors, and unique style elements to create displays that align perfectly with their identity.

Whether it’s a striking focal point or understated accents, we ensure the branding complements and enhances the overall interior vision.

“Benholm Group were an integral partner in the creation of the “Landscape of Flavour” floral installation at Johnnie Walker Princes Street.

Their knowledge and research of local flora and fauna ensured an authentic portrayal of the unique landscapes of the Johnnie Walker “Four Corners” distilleries. This installation presented a unique challenge in integrating lighting and AV, hidden access panels, and scenic elements, all while being suspended upside-down from the ceiling.

Benholm’s design collaboration and top-quality fabrication helped create a breath-taking tour moment that guests rave about. I hope to get the chance to work with them again!”
