Spacebloom, designing offices that combine well-being and performance
Spacebloom is a startup founded in 2021 by two committed entrepreneurs, Michael Najjar and Bruno Schwartz. Their mission? To help small businesses create the offices they’ve always wanted. These are mindful workspaces where beauty and function work together to inspire teams, improve focus and support collaboration. All while keeping environmental impact under control.
Considering we spend nearly 90% of our time indoors, designing office spaces that support our performance, physical health and well-being is essential. Reducing their environmental footprint is just as important. Today, an unimaginable amount of office furniture is thrown away each year, polluting the soil, air and water. This is why it makes sense to create spaces that merge sustainability with well-being.
Who is it for?
Spacebloom supports small businesses that want to create or rethink their office spaces in a simple, affordable and sustainable way. They also partner with interior designers to help them build spaces with a better human and environmental impact.
For companies, Spacebloom offers design services and tailored recommendations to create sustainable office spaces that promote well-being and productivity. Most of their projects involve teams of 15 to 50 people and don’t require any renovation work.
For designers, Spacebloom offers training sessions and workshops focused on sustainability in interior architecture, as well as personalized support on specific projects. Their involvement also saves time for designers by reducing repetitive tasks and connecting them with trusted partners.
How does it work?
Our indoor environments affect us and the planet. Spacebloom uses data from each space and applies a scientific approach to design in order to turn that impact into a positive one.
For people, Spacebloom optimizes key factors to enhance productivity, creativity, well-being and health. These include air quality, natural light, acoustics, thermal comfort, ergonomics, layout and flow. Natural elements like plants are also integrated into the design.
For the planet, Spacebloom focuses on materials, waste management, energy and water usage, and more. When you know that the furniture industry alone emits 1.5 billion tons of CO2 per year, making changes in this area can have a real impact.
Who do they work with?
In addition to its in-house team, Spacebloom collaborates with several experienced partners who share the same values. These include Natura Mater (sustainable building materials), Relieve Furniture (second-hand office furniture), Tapio (carbon footprint tracking), and Airscan (air quality experts).
Another like-minded partner is BulkBar, which provides eco-friendly dispensers of healthy snacks in bulk, for offices. With values centered on sustainability and well-being, both Spacebloom and BulkBar naturally aligned. It was only a matter of time before their paths crossed.
