The Rules of Houseplant Design:
Harmony of Scale: Choosing and grouping together plants of uniform or nearly uniform scale results in a classic, highly ordered display. Repetition of scale and proportion creates a harmonious pattern and offers a sense of unity and simplicity. Harmony can become dull if the repetition is overdone, but in moderation it offers a sense of order and rhythm.
Harmony of Texture: When similar-textured plants are grouped together, the quality of light and shadow across their foliage is consistent, creating a relationship between the plants despite any other visual differences, such as color or size. This relationship unifies the display, creating a balanced whole and imparting a sense of simplicity.
Designing with Texture: Texture is the key to evoking mood in a display. Velvety, smooth, feathery, spiky: your choice of textures will set the tone for your arrangement and the mood of the space your plants will occupy. How you then reinforce that texture through harmony, or contrast it with a different texture, gives your design its focus and emphasis.
Designing for Bright Light: If you're lucky enough to have lots of bright light in your home, take advantage of the possibilities by designing stunning displays of sun-loving plants. Fill up an empty window from top to bottom with lush greenery, or create a hanging garden beneath a skylight. Just remember to make sure your chosen plants can cope with the level of sunlight they are exposed to.
Desertscape: Grouping your cacti and succulent collection together in a single container is a great way to show off their different characteristics. The container does not have to be deep, as cacti have shallow root systems, but make sure it has adequate drainage; adding a layer of gravel beneath the potting soil will help prevent waterlogging if your container has no drainage holes.
Open-Bottle Terrarium: A terrarium is a semi-enclosed glass container that creates a warm, humid microclimate for the plants that grow within. For this open-bottle terrarium, choose a selection of foliage plants that showcase a variety of leaf shapes and colors. Pick one large 'feature' plant that will stand out from the rest, taking care not to overcrowd the bottle so that they all have room to grow.
Living Space Divider: A movable trailing plant space divider can be used to create a beautiful temporary wall or living screen between different parts of your indoor space. Choose bushier plants to fill out the divider more completely, or show off a selection of decorative containers using macramé hangers.
