You’ve decided on your look, now it’s time to pick a few plants. There are a few things to consider here. First, are you willing to put in the work to keep a high-maintenance plant alive? If the answer is no, go for something low maintenance like a Zanzibar gem or monstera.
Second, consider how large your plant will grow. If your space is open and minimalistic, a tall plant could be a great choice. Don’t be afraid to use your empty wall space and create a dynamic design with a large fern or a towering Dracaena. But if your space is smaller, don’t get greenery that will grow to an astronomical size.
Lastly, do you want your plants to be the hero of your room, or to provide lively accents? A large or impactful plant can work well as a ‘hero’ to draw focus as you enter the room. Whereas smaller vines, cacti, and sansevieria can add a pop of green and easily accent an already strong design.
Plants are living beings that need water, light, and the right conditions to thrive. So, even though your new parlor palm might look fantastic in the dark corner of your lounge room, it might not be the right place. Try and do a bit of research when buying a plant to suit a certain space, and position it wisely.
Also, it’s worth considering how easy (or difficult) the maintenance will be. If you hang a pothos from your ceiling, you’ll need to grab a ladder and climb a few rungs when it comes time to water. You’re probably bringing plants into your home to enhance the way it looks, and a dying, unhappy plant will do the opposite. So, try and make it easy on yourself.
Okay, now this is a big one. Experts say that installing a deck will often bring a 100% return, adding hundreds of thousands of dollars to the value of your home. So, not only is a deck great for quality of life, a deck can also be great for your bank account when it comes time to sell. Plus, knowing how much we Aussies love our outdoor spaces, a decked-out home is likely to entice buyers more than a home with a simple backyard.
If you’re like most people, you probably find it hard to get the ball rolling when it comes to home renos. Renovations take a whole heap of planning, organising, and waiting, all before you can enjoy the fruits of your labour. However, building a deck is usually relatively simple, requires less planning, and can often be completed within a shorter timeframe. So, if you’re the impatient type, a deck could give you that ‘renovated home’ feeling, without the extra waiting.
