What happens when you combine cutting-edge technology with the restorative power of nature? Collin Cavote, founder and CEO of Biome, joins us to share how his company is revolutionizing biophilic design with self-sustaining living walls that require almost no maintenance.

From the outside, Biome's products look like beautiful living plant walls. But beneath the greenery lies sophisticated technology that's transforming how we bring nature into commercial spaces. Unlike traditional living walls that demand constant professional maintenance, Biome's modular, soil-free systems use smart technology to monitor conditions and self-water, reducing maintenance costs by up to 95%. Their newest innovation—moisture harvesting directly from ambient air—promises to create the world's first truly autonomous living walls that never need refilling.

Collin's journey to founding Biome is as fascinating as the technology itself. After spending time living off-grid and foraging in the Pacific Northwest, he returned to society with a mission: to scale nature's benefits through sustainable business. Ten years of development has resulted in products designed for 15-year lifecycles with comprehensive take-back programs that ensure nothing ends up in landfills.

For furniture dealers, manufacturers, and workspace designers, Biome represents an exciting opportunity to differentiate offerings while addressing the growing demand for biophilic elements in commercial spaces. As Collin explains, their technology has "furnitureized" living walls into a product that can be installed anywhere from lobbies to conference rooms, bringing nature's benefits directly to where people spend their time.
