Fresh green for your home

Green plants are enchanting beings that refine our world and bring harmony into our home. Plants in living spaces provide more oxygen and a much better indoor climate. Fresh green plants should not be missing in your home. No matter whether your home is small or large, if you consider a few factors when choosing house plants, such as their shape, texture, color and proportion, you will soon be transforming your home into a lively and idyllic interior landscape.

Plant large in proportion to the room

Choose a plant that fits the size of the room where it will be placed.


The proportion according to the room is the first thing to consider when choosing your houseplant. Choose a plant that suits the size of the room. An overly large plant can overwhelm a small room, while a small plant in a large room appears insignificantly small and therefore appears invisible. In this picture, the two green plants complete the beautiful atmosphere in the room.

Shape comes second when choosing your houseplant. Take into account the shape of the plant and how that shape will fill the space. It is also important to note whether the plant has pointed or curved leaves and whether these lend the mood in the room more calm or also appear overloading on the interior. Examples of different plant shapes are hanging, columnar, arched, pyramidal or vase-shaped indoor plants.

Give space harmony and balance

Note that pointed and prickly leaves bring more pizzazz to a large and rather empty room, while round and fine leaves give a fully furnished room harmony and balance.

After determining the size and shape of the green plant, pay attention to the surface of the plant leaves. Are the leaves thick and smooth, pointed and prickly or fine and round? Think about what mood you want to give your room with the texture of the plant. Note that pointed and prickly leaves bring more pizzazz to a large and rather empty room, while round and fine leaves give a fully furnished room harmony and balance. This example shows an interesting arrangement of green plants with mixed foliage textures that fit nicely side by side in this wide space on the windowsill.
