The Challenge

Sentinel’s spacious reception and contemporary interiors called for planting with enough presence to complement the building’s scale, without overwhelming its clean architectural lines.

The Thinking

We selected a combination of tall architectural plants and smaller foliage arrangements to create balance throughout the interiors.

Statement palms and Strelitzia bring height and structure to the reception, while smaller plants introduce softer touches to shelving and shared spaces.

The Outcome

The result is a welcoming, contemporary interior where lush greenery softens the architecture and adds warmth, texture and character.

Sometimes it’s the carefully chosen details that make all the difference.
