A modular microenvironment tile includes a base frame having a first section and a second section. The first section retains a vegetation module, and the second section retains an artwork module. The vegetation module includes vegetation in the form of live plants or dead but seemingly live plants, and the artwork module includes three-dimensional artwork non-including vegetation. The modular microenvironment tile can be advantageously used as a design or ornamental building block for environmental-friendly habitats or workspaces.
