Summer Newsletter 2019
The season for bright colors amd abundant food...
Summer Has Arrived!
Inspiration comes in many forms, such as a season. Summer is a time of abundance and we feel that in our work everyday during this time of year.
The plants are expressing their full vibrance, the tower gardens are overflowing with fresh and delicious goodies waiting to be made into tasty snacks, and the warmer weather opens up possibilities for new designs.
We invite you to try a fresh, new recipe and to think about what is inspiring to you in this moment!

Once your walnuts are soaked, drain the water and add them to your food processor. Add the rest of the ingredients and pulse until the mixture achieves a ground meat texture, stopping to scrape the sides as needed.
Place in your favorite taco wrap, add your fixings and enjoy!
Celebrating Diversity at SONOS
Colored mosses come together to create a statement.
This unique preserved Lush Wall piece was designed for our client, SONOS. Expressing diverse colors was important to them for this design.
A variety of preserved plant species, along with colored moss varietals, were designed together to create an aesthetic that speaks to the beauty of diversity. We worked with our Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machinist to add the branded SONOS letters into the mix and to create the bird forms that add a unique touch to this multi-component piece.
Zoom is Open for Business!
A full office transformation provided by Lush Elements and Anacapa Architecture
Lush Living Wall, Lush Edibles, Lush Plants, and Lush Patios.
We had a blast working with the Zoom team and Dan Weber (pictured above) of Anacapa Architecture to bring the vision for their new offices to life. It's always exciting as a designer to be able to see all of the services you offer in one place because it makes for a cohesive and creative statement.
Creating an Urban Jungle
Transforming workspaces many plants at a time.
We all work better surrounded by green.
As humans, we spend more and more time indoors today than ever before in the history of our species. But, more and more research has been showing that we are still connected to the outdoors and need to be reminded of that connection for better mental health, physical health, and productivity.
Our job is to work with you to transform that corner nook into an oasis that improves the office climate and provides a space for much needed rest and inspiration.
