282m2 Indoor Planter Boxes
Caroma on Collins was a flagship showroom for Caroma, a leading Australian bathroom and kitchen brand that showcases the latest innovations and designs in the industry.
The showroom was located in Alexandria, Sydney, NSW, and featured a vast, tranquil space filled with plants and trees in planter boxes designed and installed by Fytogreen in March 2018. Our specialised maintenance team cared for the gardens for a 5 1/2 years period, until the showroom closed its doors and moved on with the expiration of their lease in November 2023.
The project involved the installation of 282m² of indoor planter boxes in various locations within the showroom, such as the entrance, the atrium, the meeting rooms, and the display areas, that incorporated indoor trees, and numerous cascading and climbing plant species creating a stunning indoor jungle.
Fytogreen installed over 160m3 of our specialized growing media, which is engineered to provide optimal conditions for plant growth and health, a remotely monitored and alarmed irrigation system and a specialized and intricate drainage system to ensure adequate water supply and drainage for the plants.
The Caroma on Collins showroom is a remarkable example of how planter boxes can transform an indoor space into a green oasis that enhances the functionality, sustainability, and attractiveness of the space.
The project won several awards, such as the Gold Award for Architecture - Commercial - Constructed at the 2018 Sydney Design Awards, and the Winner Award for Commercial at the 2018 Architeam Awards.
This was a testament to the power of green infrastructure in creating sustainable and beautiful spaces.
It’s one of the best parts of my week, being able to work in the Caroma jungle.
Thank you Fytogreen!
