Debbie Ryan's maximalist living room styles greenery in the most innovative way I've ever seen – it's a woodland masterpiece

There is nothing more grounding than being in a woodland clearing. Breathing in the green of the pines, hearing the sounds of wind through ferns, and smelling the freshness of the Earth. Now, imagine you can transport those sensations to your living room. Debbie Ryan has done exactly that.

The actress and her husband embrace a maximalist style in their living room, drenching every corner in color. It features an alcove painted with an original floral mural and a splash of yellow, red, and blue above their fireplace. A pair of strawberry-shaped stools is arranged between their green chairs. Needless to say, it's a feast for the eyes.

However, perfect planting keeps the bold living room idea grounded. To coordinate with the green coffee table, they have arranged a fern-filled planter on top of the mantel. Greenery arches in every direction, creating a look I've never seen inside.

With a few simple pieces, it's easy to replicate Debby Ryan's houseplant styling. The following are some of my top picks.

What do I love so much about Debbie and her husband's indoor planting? First, I adore how the greenery coordinates with the use of the color green throughout the room. Rather than introducing a host of new shades with florals, they have opted for a single color that matches their armchairs, coffee table, and splashes of the mural behind them.

Furthermore, the planter's shape is so innovative. I love the way that greens flow from every direction, creating something that feels wild and rugged as part of the mantel decor. It creates a source of interest in a very linear part of the home, adding an instant warmth. As a nature-lover, I wholeheartedly approve.

Decorating a mantel and styling houseplants can both be difficult, but when you pair them together, it will always look beautiful. In this case, the more experimental, the better.
