As we focus on interior design trends, we see plants are strongly establishing their future in design because of their power and effect on people.
Living in New York City often means making compromises, but your plant collection shouldn’t be one of them. Whether you are dealing with a classic Manhattan "brick-wall view," a narrow Brooklyn railroad layout, or deep Queens window sills, the struggle for natural light is a universal urban experience.
Understanding whether your plant is thriving or merely surviving often comes down to one factor: light. Because plants use light as their primary fuel source, a lack of it causes the plant to stall and eventually decline.
For years, indoor gardening often meant hiding unsightly purple-hued equipment in basements or behind furniture. However, a significant shift in interior design has transformed plant care into a centerpiece of the home. Modern interior designers are no longer tucking grow lights away; they are treating them as intentional, sculptural elements that define the atmosphere of a room.
