Freshen up your space with nature’s favourite shade

Green decor to soothe the senses (Ohpopsi/PA)

A little bit of green goes a long way, especially in the home.

Biophilic design is all about maximising connections with natural environments, a theme that’s been taking root in interiors for a while – and for good reason. From revitalising timeless neutrals with fresh greenery, to elevating natural materials by cultivating an indoor oasis, this is a look that channels calm, peace and tranquillity.

It’s visually appealing too. Soft furnishings such as swatches of tropical palm prints radiate positive energy, while tactile aesthetics created by jute, rattan and seagrass create a feeling of wellbeing as well as scoring high in the style stakes.

To help you set the scene for an indoor garden project, this nature-inspired décor soothes the senses and looks the part…

1. Selection of Leaf Envy Plants & Pots, starting from £10 depending on species and pot, Leaf Envy

2. Artificial Lily and Mixed Foliage Wall Panel, £15, Dunelm

Woven leaf-shaped placemats suggest you’re sitting close to the coastline and breathing in the fresh sea air – not to mention the earthy texture to tablescape surround. Think seashells scattered amongst the tableware.
