Our Design Journal interior design tips for incorporating natural elements and plants into interior spaces.

Adding plants and natural elements to interior spaces is a great way to bring a touch of nature into your home. Incorporating greenery into your decor can improve air quality, reduce stress, and enhance the overall aesthetic of your space.

To get started, consider the lighting in your home and choose plants that thrive in the available conditions. Additionally, mix and match plant sizes and textures to create visual interest. Add natural elements like wood, stone, or woven baskets to complement the plants and create a cohesive look. Remember to choose plants that are safe for pets and children, and don't forget to water and care for them regularly.


Tips for Enhancing Natural Elements in Your Spaces

  • Install spike lights and pair up lights with plants

  • Incorporate natural color schemes and layer textures to create a warm, inviting atmosphere

  • Use linen lampshades and wooden base lamps to complement the natural elements in the room

  • Elevate the overall ambiance by layering different types of lighting, such as dimmable, ambient, decorative, and task lighting, to create soft, subtle illumination.

Faux plants

Faux plants, also known as artificial plants, have come a long way in terms of quality in recent years. They are now made with materials that closely resemble real plants, making them more realistic than ever before. Unlike live plants, faux plants require no maintenance or watering, making them a great option for those who lack a green thumb or have limited time. Additionally, they are a sustainable choice as they do not require resources like water or fertilizer. Overall, the quality of faux plants has improved greatly, making them a popular choice for adding greenery to any space. Real feel or real touch.

Faux plants have become an increasingly popular choice for both home and office decor. Here are some additional reasons why choosing faux plants may be the right choice for you:

  • Low maintenance: Unlike real plants, faux plants do not require watering, pruning or fertilizers, saving you time and effort.

  • Versatility: Faux plants are available in a wide variety of styles, sizes and colors, making it easy to find the perfect fit for your space.

  • Long-lasting: With proper care and maintenance, faux plants can last for years without fading or losing their shape.

  • Eco-friendly: By choosing faux plants, you can help reduce the demand for real plants, which can have a positive impact on the environment.

  • Safe for pets: Faux plants are a great option for pet owners who want to keep their furry friends safe from toxic plants.

Overall, faux plants provide a beautiful and practical alternative to real plants, making them a great choice for anyone looking to add some greenery to their space without the hassle of maintenance.
