HARNESS THE POWER OF PLANTS Speaking of decorations, one of the greenest options you can go for in your loft is actual greenery. Incorporating nature into your décor by using plants for decoration not only brightens up a room but improves air quality, which can make it easier to breathe and even reduce how often you need to dust. If you’re low on space, look for potted succulents you can dot about the room. If you have a decent amount of floor space, you can look for rubber plants, palms, or a trendy Monstera deliciosa to help create a fresh, green sanctuary in your loft. The tips in this guide can help you turn a loft into one of the most sustainable areas of your home. Bear them in mind when you’re renovating or redecorating, and you’re sure to end up with an eco-friendly space that will impress. www.roofwindows4you.co.uk/ www.refurbandrestore.co.uk - 29
