Amazon Spheres, Glass conservatory at South Lake Union, Seattle, US
The Amazon Spheres consist of three connected glass domes containing 40,000 plants from cloud forest regions across 30 different countries.
The architecture firm NBBJ designed the Spheres as part of the Amazon headquarters complex, which opened its doors on January 30, 2018.
The Spheres incorporate natural elements into workplace design, creating an environment where employees can work among gardens and water features.
Visitors can explore the Spheres during guided tours on the first and third Saturdays of each month, with reservations required 15 days in advance.
The interior maintains a constant temperature of 72 degrees Fahrenheit with 60 percent humidity to support both plant life and human comfort.
