Rising Trend of Aquarium Rental Services in Jakarta Office Spaces Boosts Atmosphere and Productivity
Jakarta, Indonesia — The trend of incorporating natural elements into workplace environments is increasing across Jakarta’s office spaces. Companies are no longer using aquarium installations merely for aesthetic purposes; they now leverage these installations as part of a strategic approach to creating calmer, more representative, and productive atmospheres.
This approach aligns with the biophilic design concept, which emphasises the importance of human connection with natural elements to enhance psychological comfort and work performance. Water features and aquatic life are valued for their ability to create more vibrant atmospheres, help reduce stress, and convey professional and exclusive impressions for companies.
The growing trend has driven increased demand for professional aquarium rental services. PT Midika AquaDream is one service provider capitalising on this opportunity. Operating since 2018 in the aquarium rental and maintenance sector, the company primarily serves corporate clients in Jakarta’s business towers, with services also extending to premium residential properties.
Teuku Rizky, Director of PT Midika AquaDream, noted that corporate perspectives on aquarium functions in workplaces have shifted significantly in recent years. According to him, the distinguishing factor in aquarium rental services lies in professional and sustainable system management.
“A well-installed aquarium does not end with visual appeal. Ecosystem stability, water quality, filtration systems, and fish health must be consistently maintained. We implement regular maintenance operational standards so clients do not need to worry about technical aspects and can focus on their business,” he stated.
Beyond the corporate sector, similar trends are evident in the residential segment. Urban housing is increasingly integrating water elements into interior and landscape concepts, whether through modern minimalist fish ponds or decorative paludariums that blend with living spaces.
As workplace wellbeing and more humanistic spatial design receive greater attention, the aquarium rental industry in Jakarta is considered to have significant growth potential. “As long as companies and property owners want to create more characterful and upmarket spaces, demand for professional services like ours will continue to grow. Going forward, we are committed to maintaining service quality whilst introducing design innovations relevant to market needs,” Rizky concluded.
