An exploration of Cloud Dancer, Pantone’s 2026 colour of the year, and the role neutral palettes play in biophilic design. Looking at how soft mineral tones support planting, trees, florals and natural materials across interior and spatial environments.

As we move through 2026, interior design is shifting towards immersive, nature-led spaces that prioritise experience, materiality and longevity. This journal explores how biophilic design, tactile materials and seamless integration are shaping commercial and residential interiors today.

Artificial trees offer a considered solution for commercial spaces where longevity, consistency and visual impact matter. This journal explores how they can be used effectively across retail, hospitality and workplace environments.

Intentional imperfection is reshaping how we design with florals, planting and installations. From loosely composed arrangements to natural, organic forms, the unarranged aesthetic brings softness, movement and authenticity to interiors, events and brand spaces. This journal explores why imperfection feels so relevant right now and how it creates emotional impact through design.

A considered look at how artificial foliage can be specified for commercial interiors without compromising design intent. At LHD, material knowledge and fire-retardant certification are built into every installation as standard.

In a crowded market of ready-made solutions, LHD takes a design-led approach to botanical installations. From concept to CAD, we create real and artificial schemes that feel intentional, architectural and built to last.

In today’s retail and hospitality world, guests aren’t just looking for somewhere to shop or dine. They want experiences worth remembering and sharing. Floral and tree installations have become a powerful way to achieve this, transforming entrances, lobbies and windows into moments that spark emotion, tell a story and stop people in their tracks. More than decoration, these designs build atmosphere, align with a brand’s identity and create the kind of “Instagrammable” moments that extend reach far beyond the space itself.

Beyond plonk and place: thoughtful plant styling brings texture, balance and character, creating designs that feel both natural and intentional.

Every installation begins with the right materials. Textures, tones and finishes set the foundation for designs that feel timeless, distinctive and considered.

Choosing between real and artificial materials is an important step in any installation. We explain how each approach works, the benefits of both, and how fire rated and UV rated foliage ensures safety, durability and impact in every space.
