Hasta La Ideas

Although indoor gardening has been around for a long time, it was only a few years ago when it really took off and became quite trendy. With people stuck indoors for long stretches of time, different hobbies and activities suddenly became not only more interesting but even lucrative. People discovered the small joys of raising not just decorative flowers but also their own veggies and herbs indoors, leading to the rise of indoor gardening appliances.

The primary purpose of such products is, of course, making it convenient and easy to grow greens indoors, especially when it comes to watering the plants and exposing them to the right kind of light. Many such devices, however, seem to have been born from the old age of appliances that looked more like hi-tech boxes than part of your living space. LG is introducing a new design that makes an indoor gardening appliance an elegant and integral part of your interior decor.

Designer: LG

If all you really care about is growing vegetables, herbs, and flowers properly, then you might not mind indoor planters that simply look like mini-refrigerators. In fact, LG did launch such a design a few years back, taking advantage of the trend and hype around indoor gardening. That box appliance was compact, efficient, and convenient, but while it did show off the plants behind a glass door, it didn’t really do wonders for your room’s ambiance.

Addressing the need for more aesthetic design, LG is announcing two upcoming indoor gardening appliances that also double as stylish lighting fixtures. One is an extra-tall floor-standing lamp, while another is like a side table that can be placed beside chairs or couches. Both have circular lamps that do double duty as upward-firing mood lighting at night and downward-facing lights for growing plants during the day.

The appliances aren’t just lamps that happen to hold plants around them, of course. Each planter can accommodate twenty plants, at least based on LG’s claims, and the height can be adjusted to accommodate different kinds of plants. It also has a 1.5-gallon water tank built into the base of the lamp so you won’t have to worry about keeping the plants well hydrated. Of course, all of the appliance’s features can be managed and monitored using the LG ThinQ app.

Compared to LG’s 2022 “Tiiun” appliance, these indoor planters do more than just grow greens or provide pleasant night lights. They also add value to an indoor space by placing calming green colors and air-purifying plants in areas where they matter the most: places where people sit and relax to take a breather.
