Soothing greenery trend in the home. New survey reveals Britons' sleep habits.

The urban jungle interiors trend is slated to stay even when walks and picnics in the park will be replaced by evenings of watching your favorite movies and series as nights start to draw in early during the autumn and winter months.

Thus soothing greenery motifs in interiors – in the form of live plants, fancy foliage in prints for cushions,  carpets, wallpaper and wall murals with a plant motif, are all suitable elements  to take on to optically enlarge a space or add visual impact.

The choice of plants that we can grow at home is huge, according to green interiors specialists Ola and Weronika from Projekt Rośliny (eng. Project Plants).  And against popular beliefs, some plants for suitable for the bedroom.

"All palms, sanseveiria (aka Mother-in-law’s Tougue), as well as peace lily and ferns are recommended for the bedroom. These are plants that actually release a lot of oxygen into the air, but we always emphasize that any plant is good to enrich the interior with a little bit of nature, and above all they add warmth and uniqueness into our home spaces. "- state Ola and Veronica.

New sleep survey reveals what Britons really get up to behind the bedroom door

A new survey held earlier this year, based on hundreds of responses, has taken a peek behind the bedroom door of UK people to reveal what us Brits really get up to when the lights go out.

The State of the Nation’s Sleep 2018 survey was commissioned by the sleep brand Sid to understand the bedroom habits and sleeping patterns of the United Kingdom.

The survey examined both the generation gap - comparing responses from Baby Boomers (those born before 1964), Generation X (born between 1965 and 1980) and Millennials (those born after 1981) - and regional differences in what happens when the lights go out. 

Sifting through the hundreds of responses to the study, the leading mattress company identified a number of key trends and several slumber-themed surprises:

-The people of Scotland take the title of the UK’s most amorous

- Millennials are bedroom multitaskers, seeing more action than the preceding generations but also more likely to send work emails from their bed

- The most popular bedroom activity is… watching TV!

The UK’s most loved-up region is Scotland, with 44% of respondents saying that ‘getting amorous’ is one of the main activities in the bedroom. This compares to a national average of 25%, and is four-times higher than the South West, where only 11% of people say lovemaking is a major factor in their bedroom. 

We are said to be a nation of pet lovers, and nowhere do people love their furry friends more than the North West. 25% of respondents said they went to sleep with a pet in their bedroom (nationally: 7%).

Also we’re finding it harder and harder to switch off from work, as10% of us say that checking emails is now a ‘major bedroom activity’. Millennials particularly feel the pressure, with nearly double the national average regularly checking in (18% of Millennials). The hardest working region? The East, with 33% of respondents saying they regularly check emails in bed.
