Kim Oberheu, PFI
Join us for our upcoming Sustainability Committee meeting on Wednesday, June 23rd from 5-6 pm. We’ll be meeting IN PERSON (finally!) at 684 Mountain Drive NE, Atlanta, GA 30342 (right across the street from Mountain Way Common Park).
Kim Oberheu from PFI will be joining us to talk to the group about biophilic design – an exciting and relevant topic that addresses integrating natural elements into the built environment to positively impact human health and well-being.
About PFI: PFI, also known as Plants Forever Incorporated, is a story of two distinct women with strong entrepreneurial spirits born out of the soil of the south. The story of a mother and daughter and how their gifts when brought together have created an unparalleled reputation. Bobbie Pike, founder and CEO of Plants Forever, began in 1982, with three people she states, “Me, myself and I.” From personally choosing the plants, and all design details, to insuring top level service experiences, she established her company with a heart felt commitment to one item “service, service, and service.” Her success was seen by landing such Atlanta landmark clients as the jeweled Phipps Plaza, Lenox Shopping Center and Atlanta Gas Light Company.
While Bobbie laid the foundation for the company her daughter, Kim Oberheu, invested her energies in NYC and LA working with such productions and companies as The Academy Awards and Walt Disney Studios. Upon seeing Kim’s success and ability, Bobbie asked Kim to join her at the helm of Plants Forever 2001.
Now, Kim leads the company through branding, design and service garnering clients with global presence such as Coca Cola, Mercedes, Mandarin Oriental and Invesco.
Kimberly states “PFI’s job has become multi-faceted, assuring that a company’s internal brand is flawlessly executed throughout their corporate spaces. Knowing the brand and how to bring it to life is central to the overall reveal. We are designers and care takers who love branding, horticulture and holidays. With the creative concert of all three, we can produce something unique for any corporation in the world.
