Above a Bathtub

Turn your bathroom into a lush retreat by installing hanging plants above your bathtub. Not only will hanging plants give your space a fresh look, but they’ll also give you some fresh air. Go ahead — breathe in that clean, purified air, grab an all-natural bath bomb, and take a load off your feet.

On a Covered Patio

A covered patio can leave you surrounded by an unsightly amount of concrete and plaster. The perfect antidote? Plants — from the ground up and from the ceiling down. By mixing hanging plants with potted plants, you can establish multiple levels of foliage. Your luscious, layered greenery will draw the eye away from harsh, manmade materials and help create a sense of natural serenity.

In a Dining Room

A dining room should definitely be a place of physical refreshment, but I’d argue it should be a place of visual refreshment, too.

In a Sitting Area or Room

Hanging plants are especially helpful in bringing modern, streamlined spaces to life. They add natural texture and color without detracting from a room’s clean aesthetic. For example, in this sitting area, a potted tree would’ve overwhelmed the design, while an empty corner would’ve left the space feeling cold and lifeless. Instead, this plant dangling from a modern brass hanger accomplishes its purpose remarkably well.
