Plants at home and in the workplace are not only decorative but also offer numerous health and mood-boosting benefits. They purify the air by absorbing harmful substances and releasing oxygen, which is especially valuable in enclosed spaces. Having plants around helps reduce stress levels and improve focus, creating a more calm and productive atmosphere. Additionally, caring for plants can make people feel more relaxed and happy, while the vibrant greenery adds a touch of warmth and coziness to any interior.
Here are a few design ideas from EasyPot
Home
Living Room
A perfect place for larger plants that add vibrancy and create a welcoming atmosphere. Monstera is recommended for its striking appearance and adaptability to moderate light conditions, as well as its ability to purify the air. Ficus Benjamina is also a great option, as it helps humidify the air and tolerates low light well.
Bedroom
In this room, plants that improve air quality and create a calm atmosphere are ideal. Sansevieria (“snake plant”) is a great choice as it releases oxygen at night, promoting better sleep. Aloe Vera is another excellent option for its air-purifying qualities and soothing effects.
Children’s Room
It’s important to choose safe, non-toxic plants. Chlorophytum and Fittonia are excellent options. Chlorophytum cleans the air of toxins and is easy to care for, while Fittonia adds vibrant colors with its bright leaves, capturing children’s attention.
Kitchen
Choose plants that can withstand temperature and humidity fluctuations. Basil or Mint are ideal choices, as they not only add a fresh scent to the room but are also edible. Peperomia is also suitable, being compact, low-maintenance, and able to handle a humid environment.
Bathroom
In high-humidity and variable temperature conditions, Boston Fern and Bamboo Palm thrive. The Boston Fern purifies the air and enriches it with oxygen, while the Bamboo Palm adds freshness to the space and fits perfectly in interiors with plenty of natural or artificial light.
Hallway
In darker spaces like hallways, Zamioculcas and Aglaonema are ideal. Both plants tolerate low light and are easy to care for. Zamioculcas easily withstands dry air, while Aglaonema brings greenery and livens up the space.
Home Office
For a home workspace, plants that help improve concentration are ideal. Pilea and Calathea are great choices. Pilea adds coziness and doesn’t need frequent watering, while Calathea is known for its striking appearance and air-purifying abilities.
Office
Desks
Compact plants that require minimal care are ideal for desks. Cacti and Succulents are perfect choices; they need little water, take up minimal space, and add a touch of freshness to the workspace.
Common Area or Hallway
In larger office areas with plenty of light, Fiddle Leaf Fig or Zamioculcas work well. These plants make a bold statement, need little maintenance, and purify the air, creating a more comfortable atmosphere for employees.
Meeting Rooms
Plants that promote relaxation and reduce stress are great for meeting rooms. Spathiphyllum (“peace lily”) looks beautiful and effectively cleans the air, adding a cozy atmosphere. Another excellent option is the Boston Fern, which brings a natural freshness to the room.
