Small Home, Big Impact: How to Give Your Interior a Green Boost
Do you live in a small space but still want to bring greenery and atmosphere into your home? Good news: you don’t need high ceilings or a large living room to achieve that. With a smart approach and the right plants, like the versatile Anthurium, even the smallest flat or studio can look fresh, stylish and green.
A Green Boost
Why Anthuriums Are Perfect for Compact Spaces
Anthuriums are both decorative and practical:
- Take up very little space
- Have a naturally striking appearance – even a single plant makes an impact
- Available in a wide range of sizes, colours, and shapes
- Easy to care for, even for those without green fingers
The effect is immediate, whether you go for a potted Anthurium on a shelf or a single cut flower in a slim vase!

Tips for Adding Greenery to Small Spaces
Think vertically: Hang a shelf on the wall or use a narrow bookcase and place plants at varying heights. An Anthurium at eye level instantly draws attention.
Choose statement plants: Instead of many small pots, choose one striking plant. A potted Anthurium in a decorative pot brings calm and visual impact.
Use multifunctional furniture: Place an Anthurium on a stool that doubles as a side table, or in an open shelving unit so the greenery is both visible and integrated.
Stick to light colours: Light reflects space. Pair a white or soft pink Anthurium with light-coloured interiors to create a fresh, airy feel.
Think beyond the obvious: In the bathroom, beside the bed or in a kitchen alcove, Anthuriums thrive in many places, as long as there’s enough natural daylight.
Cut Anthuriums: Big Impact, Minimal Space
Have very limited room? Then, a cut Anthurium in a slim vase is ideal.
- A single flower stays beautiful for weeks
- You can endlessly combine them
- Change the colour now and then for a new look
Pro tip: place a cut Anthurium on a windowsill, a narrow shelf or as a centrepiece on your table. It takes up hardly any space, but makes a big difference.
Greenery in the home brings calm, character and vitality. And it doesn’t have to be big or complicated. With a few smart choices, you can transform even the smallest space into a stylish, green haven. And the Anthurium? It gets the job done without taking up much room.
