What is interiorscaping?
Interiorscaping is the practice of bringing plants into interior spaces with design elements, function, and biophilia in mind. Professional interiorscapers have an eye for composition that incorporates nature seamlessly into indoor environments and a knowledge of care requirements and growth habits needed to ensure the plants will thrive.In commercial spaces, that can mean working with business owners, architects, and interior designers to curate plant design that compliments an existing aesthetic or is woven into the design concept from the beginning. The theory of biophilia suggests that humans are biologically drawn to nature and numerous studies show that interior plants improve mood and decrease stress. By bringing plants into commercial spaces, you create an environment that clientele want to come back to. What’s more, customers will begin to associate that positive mood with the business. Interior plants benefit those who work in commercial spaces as well. We see those same mood boosting effects and an increase in productivity and creativity.
In residential environments, houseplant stylists can work with individuals to cultivate a deeply personal interiorscape that’s designed to fit the function and form of the home. This can prove to be a challenge at times though, as residential spaces often don’t have the most optimal conditions for plants. The knowledge professional interiorscapes have about specific plant care needs helps them choose plants that will thrive in any residential space.
