Is your home Homed? “Homed is defined as to have returned to a natural habitat. Homed could also mean - to go or return home - and that’s the feeling I want to leave you with,” says founder Simone. Stockhomed is all about putting the customer first and decorating your home to suit your needs, with a focus on houseplants. As the name suggests, there are influences here from Scandinavian interior design and the feeling of home. At Stockhomed, houseplants are always an integral part of the interior design and decoration. Because houseplants are an integral part of Stockhomed’s interior design and decor, Simone always pays attention to what plants will be in the room when choosing furniture. Plants not only look beautiful, but also have a great health-promoting effect. It has been scientifically proven that repotting houseplants can lower stress levels. According to a study published in the Journal of Physiological Anthropology, real plants also sharpen our attention, and having a plant in your workplace can do that. In England, you can get a prescription for “potted plants” to reduce anxiety and depression. The sight of plants can also speed up the recovery process after illness, injury and surgery. Again, you can add plants to your home to increase your productivity and creativity. There is also scientific evidence for phytoremediation, which is plants that clean pollutants from the air. For this to work, you need to have several plants in your home. And the best part, according to Simone, is that “ every home feels like a home.” Some plants that have been proven to do this effectively are: Areca, lady, dwarf date and bamboo palms, Snake Plant, Devils Ivy Swiss Cheese, Spider plant and Ficus trees.
