2. Feeling comfortable
Plants make the atmosphere more lived-in and cozy. Incredibly, this rule works even if you do add not fresh indoor flowers to your decor, but just plant prints.
3. Neutral print
Floral prints are quite neutral: there is hardly a person who doesn’t like them. This point is especially important when decorating an apartment for a large family or housing for rent.
4. Notes of spontaneity
Floral motifs definitely cannot be called strict or pretentious: such prints and decorative elements have a slight charm of spontaneity – and carefully introduce the appropriate character into the environment. This feature can be used, for example, if the interior seems to you too elaborate, or “hotel-like”.
5. Possibility to use in different styles
Although plant motifs do not have absolute stylistic neutrality, they can still be used quite widely: in Scandinavian, classic, eclectic, industrial interiors. Such elements will be an excellent addition to eco-style, neoclassical, contemporary, and many others.
6. Compatibility with natural materials
Another indisputable advantage of plant prints is their excellent compatibility with natural materials. But modern interiors are becoming more and more environmentally friendly, and natural finishing materials often turn out to be almost the main leitmotif in the decor.
7. Unobtrusiveness
An important feature of plant motifs is their unobtrusiveness. They are practically incapable of boring, and this is a very valuable property, which allows you to choose such prints not only as temporary decor but also for wallpaper, upholstery, carpets, etc.
5 ideas for using plant motifs in the interior
1. Textiles
The easiest way to add floral prints to your interior is to update your textiles. Bath and kitchen towels, decorative pillows, bed linens, tablecloths – these neutral motifs will look great absolutely anywhere. You may even decide to change the upholstery of your upholstered furniture, who knows?
2. Wall decor
Another quick and inexpensive move is to choose floral motifs for wall decor. Paintings, posters, photographs – that’s not all. You can place fabric with your favorite prints in a frame under glass. Or, say, use dried plants for these purposes.
3. Wallpaper or tiles
An unobtrusive plant pattern will look great on the walls. Unless, of course, you plan to decorate in a minimalist style or opt for a brutal masculine interior.
4. Dishes
Dishes with plant motifs will make the table setting more modern and sophisticated.
5. Important little things
You can also introduce floral patterns into your decor using smaller details: for example, replacing furniture fittings or wallpapering the inside walls of shelving.
