Plants will improve any space. Fact.
They add texture, they add oxygen (See! Even health benefits!) they are affordable, always changing and inject substance to any room. When cared for they can outlive pets and fill you with satisfaction with every successful flowering or new shoot.
Modern homes are filled with manmade, flat surfaces, sharp corners and so so so often; a monochromatic colour palette. Consider plants to be a living artwork that can subtly break this up and even compliment it, offering you shape and form plus a soft hit of colour (yes, it will likely be green.)

My “stuff” offers me both a three dimensional photo album AND a way for me to evoke the comforting, textural, eclectic vibe I like to live in.

And this has nothing to do with who owns the roof over my head….
