Creating Beautiful Eco-Friendly Spaces
As an interior stylist, I am continually finding ways to create exciting and beautiful spaces with an eye for ecological & timeless style. Design patterns and trends are constantly changing as people’s interests change and move to update their residential homes.

A porous and extremely economical material known as Cork can be used as fabric. The cork shell is stripped of wood and used to make cork products, from sealing in the finest taste of wine to upholstery. Companies have used cork to make the perfect separation caps for both shock and sound-absorbing padding.
Plant Life In Your Space
One of the best ways to level up the quality of your interior aesthetic beauty as well as the air is with plants. Plants that thrive in your spaces add tranquility and purify the air of unwanted pathogens. There are many plants that are for low to high maintenance that would be suitable for your interior landscape.
The sansevieria is better known as the snake plant. This plant is low maintenance due to the watering schedule of every 2 weeks. It requires indirect light and can grow to be a tall as 5-6 feet. Most of all this plant works to purify the air in the space, it is a perfect bedroom or living area plant.
If a live plant is not an option for a particular space, then a faux plant will do just as well. They still give a beautiful allure of texture and the look of liveliness minus the upkeep for a watering schedule. However, they will need to be dusted to keep fuzz from building up on the faux leaves.
Being able to refresh your space is quintessential to replenish your wellbeing. Having interior elements that are designed of natural attributes that reflect your lifestyle grants access to a full cycle of sustainability.
