Incorporating greenery into your living space is something that most people consider, but if you’re considering installing a green wall then you might have some questions about the most appropriate place to put it in your home. Luckily, the possibilities really are endless. Whether you’re living in a cosy flat or a spacious house, the right plant wall can transform any home into a space that you’re excited to relax in and share with your loved ones.
At Walls of Plants, we specialise in inspiring and helping you create stunning green walls that suit your style and space, so we’ve shared five of our favourite creative plant wall ideas that are perfect for sprucing up your interior design.
Spectacular Spa Bathroom
Arguably, one of the best places to have a plant wall in your home is in your bathroom, because with plants that love humidity, you can create an almost spa-like feel and lave in luxury without needing to leave your house.
Not only will your bathroom look like a home renovation showstopper, but it will serve a practical purpose too. Plants are natural air purifiers, and some plants can help draw humidity from the air, making them perfect for steamy environments that need just a little extra when it comes to keeping the air clean.
And, what’s more, you don’t need any major construction work to add a plant wall to your bathroom. Whether you want a stunning display behind a freestanding bath, or a small strip of plants above your towel rack, a plant wall can turn even the smallest of bathrooms into a calming, luxury space.
Relaxing Room Divider
Plant walls are a great addition to open plan flooring when you desire a touch of separation between spacing without completely closing off rooms. They can act as a sound barrier and divider, whilst still acting as a statement feature within your property.
This acts as a really efficient use of space in smaller homes where you may be pressed for room but don’t want to add an unsightly barrier. Likewise, you can create something big and breathtaking in show homes or larger properties that you can gaze at for hours.
We love the idea of using plant walls to separate your kitchen from your dining area to hide the mess that cooking leaves behind when you have guests over, and giving your dining room a relaxing atmosphere with a unique backdrop.
Cocktail Wall Wonder
Do you thrive off being the host? Dress your house to impress with a cocktail wall that will blow your friends and family away.
There are so many possibilities with a cocktail wall that you might not have considered adding a plant wall display, but one wall of plants can elevate your design from mediocre to something rather special without much effort.
You could have a mirrored display behind your shelves with a plant wall next to it, above it, below it, or even behind. Just picture your guests lined up on barstools, sipping the tipples you’ve made with greenery all around you. What absolute bliss.
Hanging Hallway Display
Hallways are often one of the most unembellished rooms in homes, simply because there aren’t a lot of options where interior design is concerned, but this doesn’t mean they should remain plain-walled and forgotten.
The in-between spaces in your home are just as important as your main rooms, and adding those details can make all the difference to a room that you use daily. So, why not a plant wall?
Your plant wall doesn’t have to span the entire wall in your hallway, but you can introduce a display that brings you joy. You could, for example:
- Choose a smaller fitting and surround it with family photos
- Line the top of the wall with plants so they hang just above your eye line
- Have a floor to ceiling strip of plants in your entrance hall for dramatic impact
- Add a small plant wall and fit it with strip lighting to illuminate your plants
- Frame the doorways with plant walls
Home Office Ornament
When you work from home, you need a space that inspires creativity and keeps you motivated, and a plant wall might just be the way you can transform your office from a quiet, formal area to somewhere you feel excited to work in every single day.
Plants are known for their calming properties, and introducing a little greenery on your desk is not only recommended, but encouraged. We believe that you can take this one step further and bring a sea of greenery to reignite your spark.
And, just think how excited your colleagues and clients will be when you join meetings with a living wall behind you. It’s all about the marketing.
