You bought the plant for the room, but the plant is now fighting the room. The wall is warm grey, the sofa is oatmeal, the pot is matte black, and the leaves are a flat, slightly yellow green that nobody…
Walk through any retail showroom and the same artificial plant leans forward on the shelf. The crown is dense and stacked, the trunk below it is thin, the pot is oversized, and the whole silhouette reads as top-heavy the moment…
