Choosing the perfect pot for your beautiful new faux indoor plants is easy but does need some thought as the pot(s) you choose will either add to or detract from their overall aesthetic appeal in your chosen space. There are a few important factors to consider when choosing a decorative pot for your house plant:
Choose the correct-sized pot
The size of your chosen pot is important for achieving good visual balance. The pot should complement the size of the plant, but without overpowering it or appearing to be disproportionately small. The ‘rule of thumb’ given by interior designers is that the diameter of the pot should be 2.5- 5.00 cm ( 1- 2 inches) larger than the maximum width of the plant’s foliage. Applying this rule will ensure that the plant’s container looks well-proportioned.
If you are planning to group a number of artificial plants in a single large planter or trough, the guide is that a pot measuring one metre in diameter is ideal for eight individual plants. It will be important to experiment with the grouping so that each plant’s natural-looking foliage will complement those nearest to it.
Go for colour coordination
The colour you choose for the plant pot can dramatically impact the overall look of your plant in its chosen space. It is best to opt for a colour that harmonises with the décor and also provides an attractive contrast to the foliage of your new artificial plant. Popular choices are the classic neutral colours of black, white, cream, beige and grey as these all effortlessly blend with any colour scheme. If you feel like choosing a trending alternative there are exciting new metallic finishes to choose from and these will definitely add visual interest to any room.
Complement the style
It is important to consider the setting for your new artificial plant. If it will be placed in a modern, minimalist space, the best choice of pot will be one that has clean lines in a geometric shape. If the décor is more rustic, natural colours such a terracotta or stone work well and planters made in natural material such as bark, wood or woven fabrics will add to the organic ambiance.
Material matters
Decorative plant pots are available in a wide variety of different materials. There are ceramic pots that exude elegance and sophistication that are a good choice for traditional and classically styled interiors. These pots are available in different finishes too- glossy or matt- to perfectly complement your style.
If you are wanting a more eclectic styled pot, there are attractive terrazzo pots with abstract patterns created by colourful chips and naturally-coloured concrete pots that exude a strong industrial vibe. There are plenty of other pots to choose from that are cheap, light and durable options made from fibreglass or resin. Trending pot cover designs include many made in woven natural materials or decorated with natural materials including stones, shells and moss. Natural materials like clay and terracotta are a popular choice as they bring a warm tone and organic feel to any setting.
