MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR HOME'S INSIDE FROM THE OUTSIDE
From contemporary sleek to English country elegance, casual beachside and urban sophistication to shabby chic charm, flowers are the perfect accessory to enhance any style of interior.
There's definitely power in flowers, but it's important to synchronise style and decor with your choice of blooms.Something as simple as the flowers can say as much about your style as that very expensive armoire (but it's important to get the elements right)!
If you're looking for some clever ideas to bring out the best in your decor, look no further than these suggestions from Perth florist, Airport Flowers.Let's look at matching flower arrangements to interior style.
Contemporary, urban sophistication
Modern living with minimalist décor can work really well with monobotanic arrangements where only one type of flower is used.This is especially effective when the flowers are arranged in identical containers (glass vases, silver mugs etc) and placed in a line.A single flower which has exceptional beauty, such as a rose, orchid, lily or gerbera daisy, look very effective in this format.
Shape is important.The modern decor can handle modern arrangements which are more sculpted and architectural, with varieties such as orchids, lillies and birds of paradise a good choice for this.Indoor plants such as succulents and cacti can also make a striking statement.
English country
A more traditional English home has a romantic, elegant ambience. Design elements such as floral fabrics, gleaming antiques, layers of scatter cushions and throws all contribute to the feeling of established elegance.Graceful arrangements work well in this environment - with full roses, gardenia, tulips, sweet peas, daffodils, ranunculus and alstomeria all good choices.Adding a variety of garden foliage will enhance the fresh, elegant lbeauty.
For containers, glass or cut crystal vases look great, as do silver bowls or jugs, urns and specimen vases where a single rose bud can be displayed. A porcelain jug with a floral pattern overflowing with an informal assortment of open full-blown roses is a gorgeous look.
A reliable colour scheme for this type of home is pink and white (of any shade), mixed with some yellows, white and green too.Blue and purple flowers such as delphiniums and michaelmas daisies can also be used to pick up colours, but steer away from orange. Have fun with colour - mix yellow and pink, mix lime green with fuschia pink.
A beach retreat
The languid, fresh, tranquil beach house interior works well with very informal arrangements.Mixed bunches of assorted varieties, dried grasses, sunflowers, daisies - just about anything - look good in rustic containers, recycled glassware, enamelware or even coloured plastic conatiners.Shades of blue, green and white create a calm, soothing atmosphere - perfect for a seaside retreat.
Whether you’re experimenting on your own or getting some help from a Perth florist, fresh flowers are the perfect accessory for any style of interior.
