Building a green identity for the European Parliament
The European Parliament in Brussels is the community institution representing 470 million inhabitants of the member states of the European Union. As the only institution of the European Union elected directly by the citizens, the European Parliament exercises three fundamental powers: legislative power, budgetary power and political control over the European institutions.
The impressive parliament building in Brussels hosts members of the European Parliament for additional plenary sessions and meetings of parliamentary committees and political groups for 3 weeks each time.
With Iris Landscaping, our mission was to create a green identity for the European Parliament and make it recognizable at a glance. After all, a green working environment not only improves the well-being of employees, it also refreshes the offices and boosts the European Parliament's corporate image. Both visitors and staff, meanwhile, experience the benefits of an atmospheric and inspiring workplace.
- To create and reinforce the green identity of the European Parliament in Brussels, we designed green areas in the exterior and interior spaces of the institution. The choice of plants was thoughtful, all thanks to our creativity and years of experience.
- Plants also have a proven positive impact on employees. They improve mood, relieve stress and promote creativity and productivity. In addition, they contribute to a healthier indoor climate and make the workplace a pleasant environment. Reason enough, therefore, to work with a wide range of green experience elements. For example, we maintain more than a thousand plants in the various buildings of the European Parliament, making the parliamentary facilities an inspiring place to receive clients, MPs or members of the government.
- Thanks to the quality and clarity of our reports, the European Parliament can always transparently monitor and control the work carried out.
This is a great example of our role as a facility services provider: to provide peace of mind and well-being so that our clients' productivity remains optimal and they can fully concentrate on their core business.
So the sustainable green identity we built with the European Parliament has clearly paid off.
"Many thanks to Pacôme Hensmans, your landscape architect, for the good work, proactivity, good follow-up and his contribution to creating the European Parliament's green identity. And also thank you to the entire Landscaping team for your commitment and the fantastic result."
