A deep dark forest green as a feature wall on the same side as your desk would look amazing! You could get wooden frames of different sizes and arrange them on the wall too with old botanical or animal scientific drawings. I feel like that would compliment the look you are going for ☺️

@cekatie8203 Жыл бұрын

Even add a black pipe/wooden shelf to that same wall in an artistic way. Put plant care books etc on it.

I love the way your apartment is so.. unique. Like i feel like with many homes, many of the things you can find is mass produced. Your apartment has pots and thrifted furniture that makes it special. You bond everything together in a way that makes it seem so organized and with your plants, it feels so expressive. I love your apartment and hope that you can continue to make this incredible work. Also what kind of grow lights do you use on your shelves in your office?

@benjiplant Жыл бұрын

The one on the small shelves under the window are monios LEDs from amazon, the light above my aquariums is a fluence ray66 LED light, and the ones below are from spider farmer!

Hey Benji! Loved the video. When you were describing the vibe of the office, it made me think of the term "Solarpunk," which is like Steampunk or Cyberpunk, but is more about embracing nature with the use of industry vs. just industry. Could be a source of inspo for the space!

@quayswae Жыл бұрын

One idea for the floor is peel and stick floor tiles! It would be really easy to keep clean but could add some visual interest and cover up the floor that you don't like, plus the dimensions could be super personalized. I know Caroline Winkler here on youtube has a brand she really loves from Etsy that she used in her most recent kitchen diy!

@Kelly_lilly Жыл бұрын

If your going for that 1800's industrial botanist look, maybe you could try out wall paper! I also really enjoy the vibes Terrain has so maybe you can find some inspiration there. As for the floor, I am team vinyl :)

I love the new space! I have similar style to you. I like industrial metal shelves mixed with natural wood tones from the boards I use on each shelf and of corse the greens and different textures of the plants. I think you called it “home plant lab” style sounds exactly what it looks like.

When I think of "Vintage Industrial Garage" the color that comes to mind is a pale green that was a common shop/farmer clothing color. The colors I found of the Behr website that look similar are called Shanghai Jade, Folk Tale, and Enchanted Meadow. Your transformations have been so fun to watch! Also Chris's singing was so lovely

Very helpful video, I too have a plant studio and it could really use some organization. One the best items Ive purchased was a small shop vac recently to clean up loose soil that always seems to get sprinkled around. I find clean up is necessary after every time I work in there. Looking forward to your next video!

Have you tried having the table float in the room instead of against the wall? It might take away the open floor space ( eliminate the need for a rug) and be practical as you can work from all sides

For the floor area in your office that you want to work on the plants on, you can try to get a huge office chair mat on Amazon. That way once it gets worn out you can replace it and it also protects your floor.

I think an outdoor rug would be perfect in that room. Something with a little pop of color. Your asthetic is more of muted earth tones, so for that room, I think you should be a little more adventurous with color. With as much light as you receive you can pick almost any color. It must compliment that bright white color. Only 1-2 walls should be painted. I say a green grey color - Breezeway would fit PERFECTLY
