Plants as Part of Maximalism: Green as a Pattern Too

A maximalist space where plants are one of the decorative elements. There are over a dozen plants in the room, distributed at various heights: two large plants near the ceiling on the floor, several medium-sized ones on shelves, long vines trailing from cabinet tops, two hanging planters on the wall, and small succulents and ferns on the tabletop. Leaf shapes are deliberately chosen to be highly varied—broad, finely lobed, trailing, upright—to create rich contrasts in form. The material and color of the pots are unified between terracotta and white to avoid introducing new color variables. They, along with the floral wallpaper on the walls and the spines of books on the bookshelf, create density. Avoid: using high-saturation plastic pots, using only a single type of plant, arranging plants in a neat row, adding artificial plants.

一個把植物當成裝飾元素之一的極繁空間。房間裡有十幾株植物,分佈在各個高度:地面有兩株接近天花的大型植物、層架上有數盆中型的、櫃頂垂下長長的藤蔓、牆上掛著兩個懸吊盆、桌面有小型的多肉與蕨類。葉形刻意選擇差異大的——寬大的、細裂的、垂墜的、直立的——構成豐富的形狀對比。花盆的材質與顏色統一在陶土色與白色之間,以免增加新的色彩變因。它們與牆上的花卉壁紙、書架的書背共同構成密度。避免:使用高彩度的塑膠花盆、只使用單一種類的植物、把植物排成整齊的一列、加入假植物。
