Hortus is devoted to the prosperity of all living beings; to making attaining holistic health possible for each and every business so as to help change the way we care for ourselves, our employees, our consumers, our communities and our environment.

We believe in creating a world where the large majority of individuals in the human race are prosperous, experiencing health on a holistic level, and enjoying being inspired individuals in communities who are on their purpose and finding fulfillment and joy. While we’re at it, why not even a little magic and wonderment?

We believe in the Ephebic Oath “We will transmit this city not only not less, but greater, better and more beautiful than it was transmitted to us.”

We help brands get holistically healthy, have some fun, and make one hell of a long term return on investment at the same time.

Having a challenge balancing consumer health and shareholder value? 

Is the overall health of your brand conflicting with your core business objectives? 

Is lack of stakeholder engagement affecting your return on investment?

Hortus helps brands reflect their values, purpose and just cause through culture of health strategy combined with biophilic environmental design.

Biophilic environmental design is focused on the human experience. It defines how we experience every aspect of the designed environment and how we ultimately feel in, and interact with the space.

This can include lighting, furniture, graphics, materials, interior design, interior and exterior landscapes and plantscapes, exhibit spaces, film and theater sets, and the building itself. 

From the first moment of encounter to the last moment of interactivity, biophilic environmental design is a holistic approach to how we experience the designed environment and how it enhances our health in the natural, physical, social, and cultural space.

We work with clients who are purpose driven, hold integrity and trustworthiness as cardinal principles, are devoted to the betterment of self and others, and are committed to providing mindful surroundings, processes and systems for their consumers, stakeholders, communities, and environments.

Our minimum level of engagement for providing smaller scale strategy and design services is between 60,000 and 30,000. Larger scale engagements between 100,000 and 60,000.
