They help with sensory/stress/emotional overload by purposefully being understimulating. Think of them as a nice quiet and secluded place to collect your thoughts and help your mind calm down/relax.

Edit: (stupid autocorrect)

But would it hurt to put a plant or two in there?

[-] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

This one does have a plant. Probably fake though.

Looks like there may be fallen petals, might actually be real surprisingly.

[-] lud@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

I somehow missed that one.

Still I would like a very green and big ass plant that's like 1 meter tall standing on the floor somewhere between the door and the chair

Does that actually work for anyone? Under stimulation is an okay goal I guess, but to me this just looks like a claustrophobic and painfully lit anxiety echo chamber. If this was a room where one could turn out the lights and take an actual nap, I might feel different.
