Beyond Aesthetics, Art Fuels Creativity and Connectivity
As companies continue to urge their workforce back into the office, the importance of fine art in the workplace extends far beyond aesthetics. Increasingly, companies are recognizing the transformative power of art not only to create an engaging and vibrant environment, but also to boost productivity, reduce stress, and improve overall wellbeing.
And the numbers back this up. A research study commissioned by international real estate development and operations firm Brookfield Properties revealed that art, culture, and wellness-enriched workspaces not only promote learning, creativity, contentment, and socialization but also instill a sense of pride in workers - a sentiment echoed particularly by younger employees.

At Indiewalls, we take these insights to heart and help out clients bring them to life through our comprehensive art consulting services. Here are three examples from a diverse set of business sectors:
Indiewalls spearheaded the project from curation to installation, embracing the challenge to complement the office's aesthetic and reflect Amazon's ethos and diversity. The project particularly focused on showcasing the works of local artists from the capital region, while drawing inspiration from the office’s surroundings for the artworks themselves.
The large-scale installations are positioned in high-traffic areas within Amazon's HQ2, including common spaces, major stairwells, and the executive and press briefing areas. This dynamic art program is diverse both in its representation of artists and backgrounds and the array of artwork types, with large-scale murals, suspended sculptures, mixed media works, wall reliefs, and original paintings.
The $550B wealth management firm partnered with Indiewalls to curate new art collections for dozens of its offices in the US and abroad. Each office's unique art collection features local artists from that city, representing diverse backgrounds and perspectives. The vibrant collections, which includes large-scale murals, textile pieces, illustrations, and custom commissions, enrich the office space and align with Allspring's mission to support local communities and amplify diverse voices.
