Company Profile

Oakland Green Interiors

Company Overview

Oakland Green Interiors (OGI) is a division of Oakland Nurseries. Our passion is bringing biophilic design to our built environments through interior plant design, container/urban landscaping, and custom holiday decor. We design, build, install, and maintain living plant walls, moss walls, and interior and exterior plant arrangements.

We are driven by our values of passion, integrity, innovation, reliability, respect, and quality. Our woman-run workplace is focused on building a work environment where we encourage collaboration, inclusivity, and collegiality. We love finding new and unique ways to bring nature into our workspaces, and we celebrate the beauty and wonder of the natural world.

Company History

Oakland Green Interiors has been providing unique plant design solutions for over forty years. We began work in the early 1980's, when new hotels and corporate office buildings were designed with large, central atriums. Filled with fountains, waterfalls, and tropical plants, these open-air atriums were intended to be gathering and relaxing spaces for employees and visitors alike. Following this trend in central Ohio, Oakland Nursery created Oakland Interiorscapes to provide plant material for these buildings and common spaces.

The owner of Oakland Nursery, John Reiner, used to drive all the way to Florida to pick out palm trees to bring back home to Ohio. These massive palms would be installed into atrium spaces using cranes and large machinery.

As the years progressed, building designs evolved, but live plants continued to be an important part of interior design. Our team of horticulturists cared for those plants in Central Ohio, and Oakland continued to be a leader in interior plant design. In 1992, the Oakland team even installed the new plant rooms in the award-winning Franklin Park Conservatory.

With today's focus on green living, Oakland Green Interiors (previously Oakland Interiorscapes!) continues to deliver custom biophilic design solutions for businesses and residential homes in the Central Ohio area and beyond.

Notable Clients

Benefits

We offer a friendly, inclusive work enviroment with passionate plant nerds and problem solvers. As Oakland employees, we get a company discount in our retail garden centers and frequent opportunities to "rehome" old or gently loved plants that come out of our accounts. We have opportunities to work with team mates or fly solo, we love celebrating our personal and professional successes, and we especially love spoiling our office cat, Tinsel. :)
