Larger than life

Large indoor plants or trees – such as this Spathiphyllum

‘Sensation’ (on left) and fiddle-leaf fig – make a statement with their unexpected proportions. They can be used to split an open layout into two zones or hide an unattractive feature. Positioning a large plant near a mirror will amplify its effect. Pictured in the background, trailing Scindapsus Pictus draws the eye upwards, making the most of this tall space.
