Our Roots
Respira is a design firm from Guelph, Ontario set out on a mission to improve the health of our indoor environments through a connection to nature.
We recognized a growing trend in employees moving to permanent remote positions. Ultimately, this shift forced homes to become spaces for both work and play. People were being challenged to optimize their space for both requirements.
Living walls have proved to be a valuable aid not only in better productivity and improved well-being but also in providing purified air. Respira is answering the call from consumers to bring this innovative filtration solution into the home. This is how Respira Air came to be.
From our greenhouse to your house
Our Mission
Respira is enhancing the health of indoor environments through a connection to nature and improved indoor air quality. Humans are now spending 90% of their time indoors, and more than 80% of our population live in densely populated urban centres without a connection to nature.
As we all become more aware of how the health of indoor environments influences how we feel and live, more emphasis needs to be put on creating healthy spaces that not only serve as shelter but enhance our lives.
