About the floor in the workshop, have you thought about maybe a bamboo mat ?
with your personality and very good looking...i think any apartment will look super-great, as long as you are in it 🙂...wish for you a wonderful and joyful day 🙂
benji i would just like to say that i bought way too many plants after watching ur channel and my room is now overflowing with plants 🌱
Same 😅
That’s awesome 🪴
I relate to this comment so much
Yup
Me too 😱😁
Your aquascaping skills are remarkable, just looking at them. I definetely wouldnt mind more content in that regard!
I love the way your apartment is so.. unique. Like i feel like with many homes, many of the things you can find is mass produced. Your apartment has pots and thrifted furniture that makes it special. You bond everything together in a way that makes it seem so organized and with your plants, it feels so expressive. I love your apartment and hope that you can continue to make this incredible work. Also what kind of grow lights do you use on your shelves in your office?
The one on the small shelves under the window are monios LEDs from amazon, the light above my aquariums is a fluence ray66 LED light, and the ones below are from spider farmer!
You have no idea how happy you made me every time you upload stuff
I just bought a house and I have the same depressing gray flooring. I love reading through all the suggestions so far!
I just wanna learn how to start a business at home for selling plants!
You need to work with plants that you can make they grown properly and propagate it, if you do it they will sell themselves when you announce it for sale...
Hi Benji. I’m so happy receiving my passiflora in the mail. Very well pack and I love the delicacy of this plant. It took me so long to finally have my hands on this plant. Thank you Benji.
Love the sound of the aesthetic you were describing and thought a dash of dark Victorian could maybe be it, but not too dark, just a few elements 😅
Hey Benji! Loved the video. When you were describing the vibe of the office, it made me think of the term "Solarpunk," which is like Steampunk or Cyberpunk, but is more about embracing nature with the use of industry vs. just industry. Could be a source of inspo for the space!
Yes to aquarium content!!!!
I feel like the aesthetic of your studio is like the violin workshop from whisper of the heart
13:58 hmmm.. I’m getting 1920’s/ old timey steampunk meets a breezy cottage 💭
A deep dark forest green as a feature wall on the same side as your desk would look amazing! You could get wooden frames of different sizes and arrange them on the wall too with old botanical or animal scientific drawings. I feel like that would compliment the look you are going for ☺️
Even add a black pipe/wooden shelf to that same wall in an artistic way. Put plant care books etc on it.
I really enjoy how you set up your spaces to be both easily beautiful and very practical.
Yessss I'm loving your vision of the garage-industrial-retro-plant-dad-workshop-warehouse vibes for the new office. I can't wait to see what else is in store for your apartment makeover!!
Very helpful video, I too have a plant studio and it could really use some organization. One the best items Ive purchased was a small shop vac recently to clean up loose soil that always seems to get sprinkled around. I find clean up is necessary after every time I work in there. Looking forward to your next video!
theo crunching on the food sounds like keyboard asmr 😌
This is the video I've been waiting for! I love that you came in knowing what you needed the space for and thoughtfully decided on the design. Not disappointed at all :)
Benji!! Could you do a video on your “spookiest” looking plants since Halloween is coming up 🥰 please and thank you❤
That would be so cool!
Also check out Sugru moldable glue.
apothecary meets mechanics shop feels very steampunk to me! but your take on it sounds like it would be less maximalist and more organic cozy soft
dare i say…. 👀 steampunk meets cottagecore - a combo of two of the most iconic style eras in an unexpected but very benjiplant way 😌😌
I love your style. Always look forward to your content. Thank you.
I purchased the Monios Led based from your suggestion in your college lighting video and I've had them about a year now and I absolutely love them! I also purchased a schefflera in the hopes of growing it into a statement tree per your previous video!! Thanks for all the tips and plant/home inspo!!!
I love how involved Theo is. LOL
i would love to paint your office with beige or creamy colors like still kind of simple and white but a bit more natural.
If your going for that 1800's industrial botanist look, maybe you could try out wall paper! I also really enjoy the vibes Terrain has so maybe you can find some inspiration there.
As for the floor, I am team vinyl :)
Babe wake up benji just posted another episode 😫
Simple, yet attention to details. Very thoughtful makeover. And, I'm always looking around for Theo in your vids!
You could do ruggable!! They're machine-washable and there's lots of fun designs!
Yes! I have several and they are very practical and beautiful. Great in a work room like that and for pets having accidents 😮
Benji, when will you have more passifloras available? Please please please!!!
When I think of "Vintage Industrial Garage" the color that comes to mind is a pale green that was a common shop/farmer clothing color. The colors I found of the Behr website that look similar are called Shanghai Jade, Folk Tale, and Enchanted Meadow. Your transformations have been so fun to watch! Also Chris's singing was so lovely
Stud finder? Does it beep whenever Chris enters the room?
The architect's lamp and 3-drawer box look like they'd be at home in a steampunk interior. Have you researched decor in that vein?
the office interior reminds me of costco lol
Hello Benji and Chris, great job on the room. Love watching your videos. LOVE Teo hes so cute 😍
you can make one long zip tie loop out of short ones
i think that the white paint looks good in the room, but a light grey or mossy green may look nice as well!
One idea for the floor is peel and stick floor tiles! It would be really easy to keep clean but could add some visual interest and cover up the floor that you don't like, plus the dimensions could be super personalized. I know Caroline Winkler here on youtube has a brand she really loves from Etsy that she used in her most recent kitchen diy!
I love the new space! I have similar style to you. I like industrial metal shelves mixed with natural wood tones from the boards I use on each shelf and of corse the greens and different textures of the plants. I think you called it “home plant lab” style sounds exactly what it looks like.
@benjiplant Is this your account? 🤔
I love your house you really inspire me I have so many plants because of you🌾
Any idea when the Colinvauxii will be for sale on the shop? I need it SO BAD
When will you sell more passiflora?💜💜💜💚💚💚💚
How about another tatami mat? Maybe it'll flow nicely with your living room. Just recently discovered your channel & LOVE your videos and aesthetic
I think the walls would look nice with a very light grayish blue, it would help the colors of the plants pop, and it would be so calm and relaxing
Finally managed to nab a passiflora prop a month or so ago and was sooo delighted it's so quaint and so beautiful and came in such good condition!!!!! Def gotta order more when they're in stock
i think a nice light/pastel green would look so cute. then you could call it your green room :0
To cover the floor you could get those stick on vinyl floor tiles that match the vintage workshop vibes that ur going for
My mum just said “that’s the Asian boy that sounds like Anderson cooper’s husband”. Glad she recognises your voice tho?
He talks in a weird way, but make some good videos.
I think the word you're looking for is "rustic"
Aquariums are addictive😂! You’ll love them❤
You should've seen my previous place... I think I had like 10 aquariums lol
@@benjiplant wow! So amazing! I have about 15 aqs from 5 gal to 200 gal some I built myself using acrylic. ☺️ I love apistogramma pairs with planted aquascapes. Can’t wait to see what you like and how you get creative🐡🌱
Thank you so much for your support of Monios-L!
Our current new products: Monios-L Plant Shelf with Grow Lights , 180W T8 (35Lx14Wx61H, Black)
I agree that organisation helps and good luck with your propagation.
Your aquariums look so nice dude.
Love your videos! What camera do you use? :)
This room is looking very nice,clean,useful,roomier now,good job!
💚🌱🌵☘️
What about if you put the shelves on the other side of the aquariums so it’s like a hallway of nature and the desk is flush to the window where you can look out and work?
Have you tried having the table float in the room instead of against the wall? It might take away the open floor space ( eliminate the need for a rug) and be practical as you can work from all sides
Always an inspiration to watch you and change things around my house. Thank you 🙏🏼
I have recently found your channel and ive just beeing watching atleast one of your videos every day, really has been helping me calm down♥
I wanted to know! will you ever ship to europe when it comes to plants? Im really wanting a paciflora as it hits ALL my plant love spots. but IMPOSSIBLE to find that arnt seeds. Do they ship okay in your experience? thanks for your time and effort to release content!
How do you sell your plants and how far can you ship them?
paint one wall in the lightblue of your shirt. it s not too dark that way and goes great with the white, black and green.
vinyl mat sounds good. maybe something padded in the area where you will be standing/working the most
I think that a pastel green or dark even wall… ohh or maybe pastel yellow idk. Also beige or pastel brown-ish?
I’m thinking of something dark!! Everything in my apartment is so bright and white which I enjoy at times, but it would be cool to have this room feel more “cave-y”
Nice 😍😍😍.
RUGGABLE! They’re machine washable rugs. As a fellow messy plant person, having something I can wash soil off of in my plant room has been invaluable.
Nice! Your videos should be seen by more watchers. Can I repost your channel without changing anything on the clean platform named Ganjing World? Thank you!
Hello, came across your channel while looking for vids about carnivore plants. Originally, i aquascape. When i found out you also have aquascapes i browsed all your vids. I hope you can create scape contents.
Ruggable. Machine washable rugs. Pet people swear by them. Not cheap but they’d probably sponsor you. Get two, send me one!😉
What’s your MBTI? Am I weird for thinking you could be an INFJ?
Your style: 'Victorian/Edwardian laboratorial and industrial greenhouse chic'
Paint colors: soft rust/orange/terracotta, pale green, pale blue/turquoise
Benji! what if you tried some beige vynal wallpaper , or a lenin material wallpaper from amazon?!?
a very dull neutral greenish warm light gray would look so good!!! for that room
I live for these apartment makeover videos... It's so nice to see every room of your apartment somehow get better and better. Keep up the good work!
How about an in and outdoor rug
I love the look your creating in the apartment it’s all looking so nice and organized.
Hola 👋 me gustan tus videos, saludos desde Argentina 🌎🇦🇷😘
Hey good morning! I wanted to order some dioscorea discolor… did you not have any for sale this morning??
hi do u know where to get the passiflora amalo carpa? I looked and its out of stock everywhere!
The "hello, I am back" is just so funny to me :'D
Maybe paint the room a shade of green & call it a green room? 🤷🏻♀️
I feel like the aesthetic you were trying to describe might be antique workshop?
Yes I think that’s it! Plus a little bit of a plant lab feel
Benji how do I reach you to order passiflora. Will you please ship to Canada.
You chihuahua look like my sister my sister fur baby name is biscuit he such a happy fur baby
Where did you find the big shelf you have your aquarium/aqua scape on…? I need one!
It’s from Costco! My dad bought it for me a couple years ago so I’m not sure if they sell it anymore. I needed something heavy duty for my aquariums and it wasn’t too pricey either. I added plywood sheets underneath to make it look a bit warmer
@@benjiplant thank you for replying! I need utilitarian as well (in addition) to pretty for my next project, that one is perfect. IKEA for pretty.
Your apartment is so beautiful. My dream has a place like this, lots of plants in every corner...
ooo a sky blue would look lovely with the oak, metal and greenery you have going on in here
2:47 😄 very precise conclusion hahaha love you so much benji
Where do you get your clothes? I really like the baggy/flowy style
wow, I love your videos and I love to grow flowers and garden life. Perfect. Enjoy your flowers
i love seeing more on your aquariums and aquascapes u do they are so cool!
11:25 - deffo not lame, if it makes life easier 😁
I think an outdoor rug would be perfect in that room. Something with a little pop of color. Your asthetic is more of muted earth tones, so for that room, I think you should be a little more adventurous with color.
With as much light as you receive you can pick almost any color. It must compliment that bright white color. Only 1-2 walls should be painted. I say a green grey color - Breezeway would fit PERFECTLY
benji please make plants tour i miss ur plants so much !!!
You have so calm energy and i like how calm you speak , not yelling all the time like some people am just enjoying listening to you while watching your beautiful plants , so thank you ,sending hugs and love your way :)
does anyone know how much more power these lights use?
Hi Theo 🥰 . SUNDAY funday really love how things are looking. I get your vibes. I m way older than you and yes I enjoy the lame stuff.😆
hmmm i’m not sure what the name of the style you’re going for is. but some of the vibes so far remind me of steampunk aesthetics or some of the aesthetics of this asmr youtube channel called moonlight cottage asmr. good luck with the decorating journey! 😊
@benjiplant i assume this isn’t you. pinging you just so you know!
Don't worry about being perfect. You are so lovely to watch transform your home for you and your family. It is enjoyable to watch the transformation.
