Before Our Collaboration

You know that feeling when you walk into a space, and it just feels alive?

That’s exactly what this project was about. The client wanted to take their commercial indoor area from a blank, functional space to a warm, welcoming, and full-of-life area. And with a few smart ideas and a will to execute them, they managed everything without stressing over watering schedules, sunlight, or wilting leaves.

This was all thanks to top-notch artificial plants.

This commercial client considered many options for the space before settling on artificial plants. The space was big, but the potential was even bigger, and they determined exactly what to do with it.

The Problem

The client had a great indoor commercial spot from the start. But, even though the space was good, it wasn’t great. And since the staff would spend most of their day here, the owners wanted to make the area feel warmer and more inviting.

After speaking with a few interior designers, they determined that adding greenery would be their best bet at beautification.

They had already tried real plants before, but that didn’t go as well as they thought it would: the plants died, the room had light issues, and nobody knew if the plants had been watered or not. It was more trouble than it was worth.

So after a bit of research, the client realised that artificial plants could give the same lush, green vibe without all the headaches. And lucky for us, they ended up on our comprehensive artificial vertical garden collection and immediately saw the potential.

They then reached out to our team for a free consultation and a quote, and told us they’re doing a full fit-out. It was the perfect project to show how artificial greenery can transform a commercial space.

During the Process

The client briefed us that they wanted greenery visible from multiple angles, not just tucked in corners. The challenge at the beginning was to find the perfect artificial plants that look real, feel lush, and require no maintenance at all.

We went through the project together, discussing:

  • Which plants would work best for the ceiling vs. planters
  • How to create layers of greenery to make it look lush
  • What colours and textures complement the space

The client was hands-on but open to our suggestions, which made the process smooth. Our North Star was to achieve a balance of looks and practicality.

The Solution

Here’s how it came together: the client browsed our site and picked products that matched their vision. Then, they asked for our stylists’ input.

From our 20+ years of experience in decorating commercial spaces, we determined which products were a pretty and practical option. We chose the Luxury Lush Spring Vertical Garden because it provided dense coverage perfect for both walls and ceilings.

From there, we guided them step by step: what to order, where to place it, and how to approach the installation.

This client did most of the work themselves. They installed the ceiling panels in sections, filled the planters with greenery, and carefully arranged the overall layout to mimic the way real plants grow.

We especially love seeing a ceiling installation coming together, as it’s one of the most creative ways to use an artificial green wall, both for residential and commercial projects.

After the Process

The green ceiling added depth, the planters brought texture, and the green wall became a focal point that draws the eye upward.

The client couldn’t be happier, as it was exactly what they’d wanted to achieve. Now, the staff can enjoy the beauty of greenery without lifting a finger.

Next Steps

Artificial plants and green walls are one of the fastest-growing trends for commercial spaces. They save staff time, create a welcoming space for visitors, and let you design boldly without the stress of maintenance.

We were also lucky to work with such a creative client. When someone is open to experimenting with ideas, the results are always impressive. Our team will stay in touch in case they want to tweak or expand the greenery in the future, but the space is already thriving.

If you’re running a business in Australia and want your space to feel alive and inviting, don’t sleep on artificial plants and vertical gardens. They’re realistic, low-maintenance, and flexible enough for any commercial design.
