Mann et al. (2015) readuc in atentie notiunea de fitofilie, definita de Ulrich (1983), si analizeaza efectul plantelor de interior asupra actiunilor cognitive si asupra perceptiei camerei in care sunt amplasate.
Prezentam mai jos cateva studii in care autorii au analizat atitudinea consumatorilor fata de un spatiu in care exista o planta verde comparativ cu un spatiu similar in care aceasta lipseste.
Clientii sunt mult mai deschisi acolo unde exista plante. Si revin.
